Okay, okay, okay...here I am!

I didn't think people actually read this blog, but I guess there are a couple of you out there! What can I say? Life is keeping us busy and I am exhausted. I've been substitute teaching when I can and I am 9 months pregnant, so my days are busier than normal.

I can't believe I only have 3 weeks left! I still don't have a scheduled date because my dr. left town and the hospital was supposed to call, but it didn't happen. So, I am waiting for my dr. to come back to town so we can actually schedule the c-section. I'm fairly sure it will be either Jan. 14th in the morning or Jan. 15th in the afternoon. We're hoping for the 15th just so we don't have to be at the hospital before 11:00am. If it is in the morning, we'll have to be there around 6am and we live 30 minutes away. That's early for us! We like to take our time and be leisurly.

So, my kids are outside playing in the snow and sledding down our hill right now. That makes me so happy. I love when my kids play outside. And, no, it's not because they are out of my hair! I just love that they get the fresh air and excersize and they feel good after a day of playing outside.
We got about 2 inches of fresh snow this morning, so they're having a blast.

I did a marathon Christmas shopping trip yesterday, and can you believe that I'm not done? We're going to the inlaws tomorrow and I don't have those gifts completely done yet. I honestly don't know what I am going to do! I'm going to have to go out tonight and see what I can do to finish. Sigh, oh well. I was going to make some homemade fudge to add to their gifts and I sent Brian out to pick up the ingredients today. Well, I forgot one...the butterscotch chips. Now what? He had to go out because he had some work to do and he didn't want me to drive because it is very slippery with the new snow. Well, now I'll have to go out later anyway. I'm frustrated that I forgot that. Oh well, se la vie.

Christmas day will be here at our house with all of my relatives, including my brand spanking new nephew! I'm so excited to see him again. He was just born on the 14th so he won't even be 2 weeks old. He's a real cutie and it will be the first time that our kids get to meet him. I'm looking forward to that.

Well, I'm here typing away when my twins are napping and the others are outside so I really should be productive and get some stuff done. I promise to try to blog more often.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Jennifer, you know I read your blog. I love getting updates on your life.

Wow, only three weeks left before you have your baby! Did you chose a name for her yet?

I hope you have a beautiful and merry Christmas.
