Time To Catch Up!

It has been a long time since I've posted so I decided I better get on the ball! We spent Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with my mom, grandmother, sister, brother-in-law, and nephew. It was really nice to spend some quality time with everyone! It was also my nephew Drew's 1st Christmas - he definately enjoyed tasting the wrapping paper more than the presents!

The day after Christmas we left for Maryland so we could spend some time with Darin's family. As usual, we were busy visiting but we loved every minute of it! While there, I came down with a nasty cold and spent 2 days in bed...lovely! Despite the cold, we had a blast hanging out with his family, playing Rock Band (the easy level for me!), and watching football. Of course, Darin and his brother spent lots of time at Sears and working on the truck..cleaning, waxing, and whatever else boys do with their trucks. Chopper also had a great time hanging out with his cousin CJ!

Right when we came back home, I came down with either a nasty virus or food poisoning. I couldn't keep anything down for about 12 hours. I ended up going to the ER to get some IV fluids and some anti-nausea meds. I spent 3 days recovering from that. I am feeling better now...thank goodness. I go back to the doctor tomorrow for a check up to make sure all is going well with the skittle! I will be 19 weeks this Thursday :). I haven't felt the skittle kick yet but I am sure I will soon! Darin has been really helping me out around the house, cleaning up and taking down the Christmas stuff. I am definately grateful for all of his help!

We hope everyone had a wonderful holiday and has a great 2009!!!
