Happy New Year…
Yes I am just now writing in the blog this year. Ashley and Keenan came down to Beaufort to visit for New Years. They had a rough trip on the way down; they drove my Rav-4 back down to me and 45 min into the trip it got a flat. A snowball effect of crazy events and they rolled up in our driveway 40 min before midnight. We appreciate their good spirits and we made the best of the weekend.
It was nice to spend some time with Ashley and Keenan. I know Joe was anxious to spend some more time with Keenan to get to know him better. I am pretty sure they had a good time together! They both love video games… movies… and Stargate (TV Series); more power to them on that one but they stayed up late to watch a few episodes!
New Years Resolutions… for me it usually consists of weight loss of some sort; but not this year. There are lots of things in my life that I am sure could use some improvement. So what to I work to improve this year? …I have chosen to work on couponing as my new year’s resolution. There is so much money out there to be saved; and lord knows with a baby on the way; we could use every penny! I have gotten my feet wet a little last year with coupons. I saved some money but when I got busy the couponing went out the window. So this year it is all about how much money I can save! I am going to try and keep track as much as possible. So far so good… I am flirting with 50% savings right now. I am working towards improving that number!
We are 25 weeks along this week. Time is flying by and there is still so much I want to get done before Michael comes! We did go buy paint samples today for his nursery so I am anxious to get that job started! I also want to catch up on all my scrapbooks. I have Cruise, Me & Joe, Wedding, and start Baby… yeah that about sums up the scrapbook work. Lots of work ahead!
Here is what is going on this week:
Head to heels, Michael now measures about 13 1/2 inches. His weight — a pound and a half — isn't much more than an average rutabaga , but he's beginning to exchange his long, lean look for some baby fat. As he does, his wrinkled skin will begin to smooth out and he'll start to look more and more like a newborn. Michael's also growing more hair — and if we could see it, we’d now be able to discern its color and texture.
