December and Christmas

Christmas has totally snuck up on me this year. Today is Scott's day off, and we need to do our christmas shopping, check on our house, go to the temple (as it will be closed for awhile,) and maybe hang out with friends too.

I blinked and Christmas is next week, and I am totally unprepared. Maybe it is because I do not have my tree up to remind me everyday. Because Daniel is really into pulling things off of other things, we have decided to put our tree up Christmas Eve, that way Daniel can wake up and have this cool thing appear in our living room. We were also waiting cause we might have been in our house, but it is looking like it won't be finished until after the first of the year.

This has been quite the exciting month so far. My sister Chamrie is buying a house too, so we have been helping her pack, but that is now on hold pending the underwriters. We are at the point with her that we don't dare pack anymore in case it doesn't go through, but we won't unpack either cause that is alot of work that might be needed.

Meanwhile, I am living out of boxes, and hoping that I can keep things organized enough to make repacking easy.

Also I have some good news: I am pregnant again! My due date is the 16 of August! I don't have morning sickness yet, but I am getting hints of it all the time. Waves of tiredness, moments of ickyness, and an occasional whiff of nausia. I don't think I will be without it very much longer, unfortunately.

Daniel is learning new words every day. He says Thank You, Car, Ball, Doggy, Kitty, Daddy, Mommy, This, Please, Water, etc. (of course, he doesn't say them clearly, they are still in the baby mode, but you can understand them if you try.)

I wish you all a Merry Christmas! And a Happy New Year! Hopefully I will post again before next year, but in case I don't take all my good wishes with you!
