and didn't know this already; today is baby eviction day!
I woke up yesterday with congestion in my head. Oh joy! All the nose blowing should feel REALLY good after I have major abdominal surgery.
I'll post THE update when I can! :)

In an effort
to not sound like a whiny baby... I shall refrain from blogging until I feel like I have something positive to say!

It's official
I am a hermit.
I go to church on Sunday and then usually to one appt during the week and that is it! I send C to the store for just about everything that I need. I'm just not in the mood to drag myself and The Girl anywhere. I'm totally bigger than I ever got when pregnant the first time, I have 2 skirts that I can wear and only one of them if it is cold out, (which it has been here and I'm seriously NOT complaining about the weather cuz I LOVE it! We are actually having a winter, but sadly it is ending soon... already today we are in the upper 40's.) :( ANYWAY, it is just so much easier for The Girl and I to chill out at the house (ha! no pun intended) and watch movies and color and nap and tool around on the computer than to put any effort into getting actual clothes on that fit and get out into the general public. We have roughly 6 more weeks til the new guy makes an appearance but quite honestly I don't think it is going to be that long. Next week we have another sono so maybe we'll get a better idea of how things are moving along. I checked some old blog posts this morning and about 5 weeks before my due date with The Girl I started up the insulin b/c my blood sugar numbers weren't staying where they needed to be and then we went and had her 2 weeks early. Sooooooo if that is any indication of things than this little bambino may just be about 3 weeks away b/c my sugar levels have been slowly increasing and I'm sure that when I mention this to the dr next week we'll start insulin. Of course all this is just really me guessing b/c well, I don't have my medical degree and quite honestly NOTHING about this pregnancy is remotely similar to my previous one except that I have the most absurd sleep schedule and that I developed gestational diabetes. EVERYTHING else is different. How I feel, how I look, how the baby feels, my blood pressure, my weight, the HEARTBURN, oh THE HEARTBURN...!
(on the upside, I'm getting all my calcium in from all the Tums that I have been chewing on!) :) See, glass is half full people! :) Since the tiredness CONSUMES me, Christmas is still up at our house and I HATE THAT! Also The Girl's 'new room' still remains in a half state of 'new room' and scrap/office junk everywhere room. She did sleep in her new bed though on um Friday? or Saturday? night for about 4 hours, when she woke up YELLING Daddy! and CRYING!! and then thud, she rolled off the bed. (giggle) It's only about 4 inches off the floor so she didn't get hurt but it made me laugh. :)
That's pretty much where we are right now... just hermit crabbing it for the time being.
OH, one more thing: C starts 2 new classes; officially, the classes start today but they opened them up over the weekend... he told me this morning that depending on how busy he was at work today, he figures he can FINISH one of the classes TODAY!!! I really love my geek! :) The other class is going to take him a little more time... it is an English writing course and he swears he's not good at that stuff. (He is SO WRONG on that by the way!)

The Girl got a pony for Christmas!
This post will include a RIDICULOUS amount of pictures!
We did not get The Girl a whole lot of Christmas presents;
1) I don't have all the money in the world,
2) I don't want to make Christmas about presents and 'getting', and
3) she's still young enough that we can get away with it! :)
She had what we considered 3 'big' gifts (and one of them we didn't even purchase, thanks Aunt D, it is a huge hit!) and then a handful of little items.
I bought a small pony at Sam's Club almost 2 months ago, he has been hiding in our garage in a GIGANTIC contractor's size garbage bag since then. (I was beginning to feel really bad about it too... it was cold out there and a plastic bag could kill him! ;)
ANYWAY.... C went and got the girl up around noon (she is SO THE BEST sleeper! This new guy has big shoes to fill!!!) Here is the picture of her seeing her 'neigh' for the first time... the rest will have to be random and without caption b/c there will seriously be too many photos.
I'm pretty sure she likes it. I've named it Honey.
She had to give it a hug! How adorable is that???
and back on she goes... again, I'm pretty sure she likes it. What do you think? :)
A self inflating whoopie cushion... oh what joy it brings! (The dogs HATE it though! LOL)
Daddy 'beeped'!
This is what I was afraid of... it is her saying and signing for 'more'. In her defense there was a pile of wrapped things in her sight....
Books! YAY! We LOVE books!
I think she's 'getting' the whole present thing now...
We couldn't get it out of the packaging fast enough!
hmmm who is more excited?
Of course we couldn't forget the doggers! They each got their own stuffed elephant thing.
Waiting for Daddy to open one of his things.
This Cookie talks and she was letting him talk to Tigger (who is on her stocking) which was a gift to me from C a million years ago when we were still just dating.
Such concentration:
Who knew this would be SUCH A HIT!
That went on for quite a while, I might add. :D And we have shows nightly! (and daily and anytime she can corner one of us into either joining her or watching her)
The above little gem was just 2 little plastic sesame street figures. They don't do ANYTHING, I just thought she would think it was cool to have a 'Nernie'. Guess who has to go to Target now? ME! Because some genius packaged 'Nernie' with Big Bird and NOT Bert!!! The first thing she said after identifying the two characters... Where's Bert? Who can blame her!?!? So, I'll be heading out to Target this week in search of Bert. (I have to, she gets the OCD from SOMEONE!!!!!!) :)

Something to tide you over
until the awesome christmas morning pix come! (I'm hoping they will be awesome anyway... I'm REALLY excited about 2 of The Girl's gifts!)
I'm borrowing this from a friend who borrowed it from a friend who... you get the idea right? :)
This is a little bit of info about me and C.

Mine is Renee and his is Wayne. He is named after his Pastor in DE; I'm not sure where my parents got my name from.
How long have you been together?
January 1994
How long did you know each other before you started dating?
A few months. (it's really a long story; that may or may not get blogged about in the future)
Who asked whom out?
He did.
How old are each of you?
I am 15 months older. I am 34 and he is 33. But we just say that "we" are 33. Although, I actually try not to say my age at all.
Whose siblings do you see the most?
We see my brother more than his.
Which situation is the hardest on you as a couple?
His family. and sometimes money.
Did you go to the same school?

Are you from the same home town?
Nope
Who is smarter?
He is. Hands down!
Who is the most sensitive?
hmmmmmmm could be a toss up.

probably Chipotle. It is fast and cheap. I wish it were Saltgrass though! :)
Where is the furthest you two have traveled together as a couple?
The farthest places we've been as a couple have been Florida and Wisconsin.
Who has the craziest exes?
I don't really have any exes; so I'd guess by process of elimination... he does!
Who has the worst temper?
I do. Hands down.
Who does the cooking?
I do; unless we are having breakfast food at which point he transforms into... Pancake Man!
Who is the neat-freak?
I'm more so than he is, but I don't think you could call me a neat freak... now germ freak on the other hand is TOTALLY me!
Who is more stubborn?
I am. (geez, I sound difficult to live with!)

On work days he does, but I'm not far behind. On days off... totally me.

The beach
Who is more jealous?
He is.
How long did it take to get serious?
hmmm I don't remember.
Who eats more?
Definitely him.

Omygosh! HE IS!!!
