Did the Blog End???

This week Curt asked me so I guess we're done with the blog...??? Why I asked? And he said because you never put anything on there anymore! He's right, I don't, I haven't .... we don't have a lot to share right now! This is what's been going on in the past month....

1. Curt started back to school on Wednesday nights

2. Jaime is a nervous nut about being pregnant and Curt has to deal with her irrational fears--that's kind of been a theme through the whole thing though; usually though after a day I move...I get these weird ideas in my head about squishing the baby when bending or sitting down too hard. I blame the extreme paranoia on the hormones???

3. We finally picked a color to paint Chiquita's room... that will be a fun post in a few weeks

4. Several open houses/viewings on the condo but no news there

That's it! You can see it's been uneventful in our house! By 9:30 last night we were both tucked in bed and snoring away! We'll Curt was because I heard him but I don't know if I was!

A Root Canal for Jaime

Yesterday I had my first root canal ever.... and it was not bad at all! You only hear the bad stories I guess but this was just like a cavity just a little longer. I did have my IPOD with and turned up high so I didn't have to listen though. I was scared and nervous going into it; not because of having dental work done but because of being pregnant. But Curt's brother Paul, who is an x-ray tech, made me feel better about having to get a few digital xrays done yesterday and people off of Facebook, who were pregnant and had dental work done with anethstetia in the last part of their pregnancy made me feel better too about going in...

No pain so far; just a little tenderness if I clench my jaw down on that side so I have the Tylenol ready but I don't even think I will need that!

No News is Good News....

But boring!! Curt and I don't have much to report in the past couple of weeks. Just back to school and the day to day chores. We've celebrated a few birthdays with the families, went on a movie date night, and have been relaxing on the couch a lot during the past few cold days.

We're Back and With Some Fish!!

Curt and I spent an extended New Year's weekend with his family in Escanaba... Curt was able to go out fishing at least once a day so that was great fun for him!

Here he is playing kissy face with his fish on Friday night; just being silly...

Curt and his dad showing off their fish. Between the three fishermen they caught 9 walleye and 3 perch that were "keepers". So we have plenty of fish to share if anyone is interested! This is the official yooper icefisherman hat of da U.P.! He's what I call a "keeper"in that hat!

Ice Fishing Time

Today we are off to the ice land up north called Escanaba for some ice fishing and New Year's relaxation! Of course I won't be ice fishing; didn't go last year either but I will make sure the house is safe and the dogs are happy! I've packed "The Host" to read while there...it's been on my to read for months now...

New Year's Resolutions...

Curt and I just made a list of New Year's Resolutions and posted them on the side bars. I decided on ones that I thought I could actually obtain...Curt giving up soda is one I would call unobtainable so he said do you really stick to them anyways? Only once can I remember sticking to a resolution for a whole year; I did give up soda about 8 years ago but on the next New Years I was back to drinking Mt. Dew! So that's what I'm wondering...do you make resolutions and stick to them or is it just a tradition that goes along with the holiday?

Wedding/Hannukah Present

Tonight Curt and I celebrated Hannukah with a close friend. We received our wedding gift from her too! She has been working on it since our wedding and had a little one for in the bag for Chiquita too! Our afghan is perfect for our bedroom's color scheme and yellow is perfect for Chiquita; just like a banana! Thanks for a great night Anita.

A Merry Christmas!

Curt and I had a busy Christmas; three different places in two days...including squeezing in our own. Sadly we don't have any pictures to share but it was a Christmas full of family! Hope yours was enjoyable too...

How Much Snow is Alot of Snow?

Curt and I laughed as this car drove by! Is it a car; no it's a traveling snow bank!

Winter Vacation Starts Early!!

I couldn't even open the front door all of the way without snow getting in the way!
Can you see the dogs admist the snow?

Curt working for hours to clean it all up...all shovel, no snowblower! That's a real man!

Yesterday school got cancelled and as a result our two week winter vacation started a day early! Curt stayed home on Friday as well; we were talking and besides being on vacation I don't know if there's ever been a day we've spent the whole day together without going to work or to our families or some other commitment. It was nice to be wholed up in the house with our pajamas; we watched Fever Pitch and Dark Night: The New Batman. Curt got antsy, I got comfy!
