Hey - just thought I would leave a note to say HI. Nothing new here. I am looking forward to Thankgsiving.... because I am going to decorate my house the Wednesday before. yeah. I am ready for snow too.

Now since I have started rambling... I must say that the hardest thing about being pregnant during the winter is that I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SKI!!! Now, I am relatively active... I enjoy lots of sports... but one thing that Matt & I really enjoy to do together... is SKI! It is the biggest sacrifice thus far (besides the weight gain!) I hope that I survive the winter ... I may need therapy especially when we get a really nice snow fall. I may have to just get my skis and gear out and put it all on.... walk around my house with my goggles on as if I am in my right mind -(Like Joon - in Benny & Joon).

Well, I wanted to post this youtube video but was not having luck. Here is a link instead. This is a hilarious QVC blooper. It looks as if he either loses his balance or misses the step. Then, if you listen closely I think that you hear him let out a little "yelp" as he starts to fall. And of course, of my brother pointed out, their attempts to verbally "recover" are hilarious.

Detox

I am suffering. Seriously. Living without internet access is bad. Living without a computer is worse! I am obviously addicted to my computer. At times I have spasms....start sweating profusely for no reason...sit at my desk where my computer should be in a catatonic state.... I talk as though I am typing an e-mail.... it is awful. I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy. :-P

Nothing much is going on here. Just thought I'd update real quick. I must say I am overwhelmed by the generosity of our family (and friends). God has been providing us with some "baby stuff" to which I am very thankful. We don't need things to match or be perfectly new... cheap is good. free is better. I even have been given some maternity clothes which I am thankful for as well. I am trying to hold out to thanksgiving to start wearing these clothes. But, I must confess - that I have grown out of most of my clothes. I rotate between a few outfits every week.

It's interesting.... on Sunday I had two very opposing comments. One person told me I looked great - not even pregnant. Another person told me that I am just popping right out since I am so short there is no where for it to go.?! Hmmm.... They both cannot be right.


Less than three weeks to Thanksgiving. Yum. Yum. I think we will definitely put up our tree around then.... yeah.

BTW, Thanks ST for the congrats e-mail. I would have responded but in switching e-mail accounts I lost your e-mail address. Hope all is going well for you.
