There's nothing like a big ol' shot in your keister to wake you up in the morning...

Things are going quite nicely with the little guy. I went in this morning for my Rhogam shot. It was a seriously big needle, about 1/16 of an inch (look on a ruler, you'll understand) and the nurse described it as a deep intermuscular tissue injection. I was so excited.

It wasn't that bad in the end, Linda was very nice and the only pain was the ache while she emptied the syrine (which was equally as huge). So one down, one to go!

Jason is moving right along with the floor in the house. It looks so beautiful! As soon as he's done, I'll get pictures up for you guys. Currently, our piano is in the foyer with the rolled up carpet and pictures and lamps and coffee table, and if anyone knocks on the front door, we'll either have to climb out the window or go through the garage to let them in.

We're headed up to Pennsylvania this weekend....and I am sooooo excited to see my family! More updates and pictures (I promise!) to come.

This past weekend was so busy, and it is only one of the first in a long line of busy weekends! We moved (or shall I say Jason and his very nice, gracious buddies) into our house over the weekend. Although I did no lifting what-so-ever, I am still bone weary and ready to take a nap for the whole week! I put a picture up of the front of the house, but since there is only one pathway around the clutter inside, you don't get to see that yet.

The dogs are enjoying the backyard. Trolley just sits there listening to all the new dog barks and trying to figure out how to get to them. No digging as of it, except by Tank when Jason goes out the gate.

Hopefully more pictures to come soon....looking forward to this weekend in Dallas!

My mom was down over the weekend, and we had a good time waiting for Eli to move and seeing the house and we even painted the nursery! It is so beautiful, the color is green garland, but I'll have to get a picture up for you.

We have another doctor's appointment this Thursday. They will be testing me for gestational diabetes, and I'll get a shot of Rhogam (for my O negative blood). Things seem to be moving right along.

I have discovered that maternity clothes (at least the ones I can afford) do not come in my size and I can't just buy bigger "regular" clothes because my belly seems to be the only thing growing. It is pretty frustrating, so whenever I am at home, I just wear Jason's pants because they are soft, baggy, and comfortable. The only problem is is that he wants to wear them too.

Something appears to be wrong with Tank. He is an emotional wreck, but we can't quite figure it out. It may be the moving that has him worried, he may have something stuck in his paw (he lets out these funny little cries every now and then), or he's just moody. Poor guy, if only he could just tell us the problem! Trolley on the other hand loves going back and forth to the house and runs around as soon as she is out of the car. Maybe Tank thinks we like her more?!

So it seems that the most interesting thing going on is our dog's mental/physical health....interesting....
