OOPS!

Somehow I managed to post my christmas eve post on Mom's blog. Due to the fact that it took me about 2 days to finally get pictures uploaded, I may leave it there unless mom wants me to move it. :) So if you would like to see our christmas day photos, go to mom's blog.

Christmas Eve Snow

Here are some pix of the snow on Christmas Eve. Eric running the new snow thrower! OOOHHHH! It was a very exciting day for us.

Eric and the snow thrower again.

Here's the snow in the AM. This helps you see just how much snow we have compared to Eric and the mailbox.

Pretty tree in the snow in our front yard.

Here's the front of the house with snow. Not sure if I've ever posted a picture of the house on the blog.

Lots and Lots of Snow

Picture of the back deck. Please note it's still snowing and will continue to snow until noon. I took this picture at 7. We were plowed in for about an hour or so this morning and thank goodness for 4 wheel drive and being with a boy who grew up in WI and knows how to drive in the snow!

11 weeks left

It's true, only 11 weeks left until my due date. I haven't even cleaned the baby's room yet! yikes! Luckily I have the whole week off next week and I intend to do a ton of stuff then!

Snow and travel

So for those of you who do not know, I have just returned from my very last trip! Yay! I will not be traveling again until sometime next summer.

I know my title sounds like I had snow issues while traveling, but I actually missed all of the snow in WI. I returned to 6 more inches of snow. Lovely! I hope we don't get tons of snow like we did last year. However, if there's a big snow storm in late Feb/early March I'm willing to bet that that's when I'll go into labor!

28 Weeks

Here's the 28 week baby belly. Due to crappy picture quality (thank you camera phone) I edited it a bit. :)

Hello Third Trimester

That's right, I'm in the third trimester now! woohoo! Even better, my hip pain went away so I have been able to resume house cleaning with full fury. No more only cleaning one thing a day. Watch out carpet the steam cleaner is coming for you! Tonight I did the hallway and the stairs. So glorious!

Pictures from last weekend

Sorry I've been lazy and it's taken me a while to post these pictures from last weekend.


Here is our glorious christmas tree not yet fully decorated. However, we only have the blue and silver christmas balls on it anyways. It's very sparse on purpose.Here I am with the Christmas tree with terrible hair. We also deteremined that horizontal stripes are not nice to pregnant ladies. Live and learn. However, that's one of my favourite preggers shirts so I do intend to wear it again regardless of the unflatteringness of the stripes. :)Here's Eric's thanksgiving turkey. It's so very delicious!

I also went day after thanksgiving shopping. It was a good time. My favourite purchase was the steam cleaner for the carpets. So far I have steam cleaned the basement (it was so gross and dirty) and the dining room. Next is the hallway and the stairs up to the first floor. Crazy pregnant ladies should not be allowed to have steam cleaners particularly when they're insistant that the whole house should be clean and spotless.

So I am in STL starting Thursday evening and get back home next Wednesday. It's really not fun to travel at this point in the Christmas season because I have so much to do. However, I do not travel anymore after this so I should be able to get all Christmas items complete the following week and start really focusing on baby stuff. The baby room has not been cleaned out, painted or steam cleaned yet. I'm trying to get most of it done before January so everyone can see it when they're here.
