So I know that it has been too long since I posted. Things have just been busy. I even started this post a little while ago and didn't get to finish it.
Scott and I have been busy, Scott more busy than me. I am working doing taxes most of the time and then working a few extra hours at the copy center. Taxes are interesting with so many rules, but I really feel like I have the hang of it. The hardest part is usually getting through the end of the return with payment, rather than the return, but there are times I see things I haven't seen before and have to ask questions. Luckily I have a great office with so many people who are willing to help! Scott has started working full time and going to school full time. He usually ends up working over 40 hours. He was taking 15 credits with that, but I convinced him to drop a class and make it 12. It may take a little longer to graduate but at least we will both stay sane.... He is totally amazing and working so hard to take care of our little family. That is one reason I haven't posted in a while.... Even though I am a slacker, I have thought about updating but Scott would be home and doing homework, which usually means he needs the computer, making it a little hard to blog. He is still at work now, but he will need the computer as soon as he gets home, so I figured I should work on this.
We had a great new years. We had Scott's brother and his family come for a visit for a few days and we had so much fun. It was great to hang out with Brian, Meija, Amelia, Roman! We ate lots of good food and had fun staying up late and talking/playing once the kids went to bed. It messed up our sleep schedules a little, but it was well worth it. We all even got different but sorta matching PJs that are SO comfortable. We were very sad to see them go and have to get back to crazy work schedules!
I'm trying to think what other news we have for this month. My brother Dave came for a visit for work and got to bring his youngest boy, Jared, who is two. I picked them up from the airport and we stopped at In-and-Out on the way home. It wasn't too long a wait so that wasn't too bad. I think it is crazy the amount of time people will wait in line for that place...When we were there the line didn't leave the drive through area so I was okay with it. I am just not a person that would wait in a line that goes into the parking lot and around behind other stores... Anyway... I got to spend some time with Dave and we had fun! Scott had a blast while Dave was here and all the guys in the family went snowmobiling. It is good for him to have guy time! I think it is sometimes better for me not to hear the stories about things that can happen on those trips.... I don't want to worry when he goes. Everyone returned safe and in one piece without any broken snowmobiles.
We have had fun hanging out with friends on some nights... mostly Saturdays since we can sleep in on Sundays. We also went to a family birthday party for my niece Chloe who turned 6!
The baby is doing fine. I am growing a little, but I am still really small. I will try to take a picture soon... but I am really lazy right now and don't feel like getting the camera... hence no pictures with this post. He moves around alot and likes to settle in my ribs! It is crazy that it is only about 2 months away. We haven't really done anything, we are still waiting to get a better feel for what we need, we may go out for another summer and that means that we will be traveling really light for the first few months of this little guys life. My mom is starting to get ready for the baby shower. It will be March 13, if anyone wants an invite let me know, just leave a comment or something. It will be rather low key, but still fun times!
So that is about all from here for now. Scott just called to say he is on the way home, so I guess I finished just in time!
