It’s been a while since I updated the site, and Angie has told me that she’s not posting until I post, so here I go. I guess this goes back as far as Thanksgiving. It was great. Angie’s mom was in town and the ladies went shopping for maternity clothes. At first I thought it was kinda early, but I knew that they were excited about it (at least afterwards) and Angie said they were very comfortable, so that’s good. Angie’s mom spent a good amount of time hemming Angies pants, and preparing for Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving itself was good. It was Angie, Kylie and me, Angie’s mom, my mom and barry, my brother Matt, our friends Vern and Barb, and Kwane and Bianca. It was expecially cool to be able to celebrate in our new home. There was way too much food which worked out well for the following days and nights. Surprisingly I never got sick of the food. Mom made green bean caserole, Angie made Spinach Madeliene, and Angie’s mom made turkey and chicken ‘n dumplings. They were all great.

Angie and I had a four day weekend, so I ended up using it to get a lot of stuff done around the house, and force myself to sleep in as much as possible. That was nice. No alarms, no early appointments. I got the garage cleaned out and somewhat organized. I’d like to put some cabinets in the garage for storage and because I think it will look good. We moved some large rocks from the lot behind us, and put them in the flower beds up front. Then Kylie and I worked on a castle that she had to build for her World History class. I’ll upload a picture later, but I think it turned out pretty nice… working draw bridge and all.

Angie is doing well. I know she feels sick from time to time, but she hasn’t thrown up yet. She is mainly just tired, and I’ve noticed a few times where her memory doesn’t seem to be as great (though I’d never tell it to her face). We are in the 9th week, which just seems amazing. The baby is no longer a little pea sized blob… but more like 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch . Angie is looking forward to the second trimester when she is supposed to get an energy boost! That way she can get back to laundry, cooking and cleaning. (Hope she doesn’t read that part.) Oh well, at least I don’t make her do it barefoot.
