Holding the Status Quo

December playing with a picture frame

December watching "Curious George"

The past couple of weeks have been fairly ordinary...not much that is new has happened. Brad's school is coming along, with a midterm thrown in last week. He is currently working on one of his papers. All of Brad's 3 papers are due only a few days after the baby is due, so he's trying to work ahead on them. Very smart idea! As for December, she's been doing her daily, normal things: playing, going to the park, hanging out with her toddler friends, potty training (which is going WAY, WAY better!! I have hope that December will be fully potty trained by the time the baby is born.). My "nesting" has been kicking in, and I've been getting things ready for the baby. I'm nearly finished. Actually, if the baby DID decide to come right now, we'd be fine -- my hospital bag is all packed and ready to go! My friend Naomi (that you saw pregnant in the pumpkin pictures) had her baby almost two weeks ago, a beautiful baby boy named Isaac. What a precious little one! December and I LOVE going over to visit him.

So as you can see, most everything here is ordinary. In fact, things have been so normal here that I haven't even taken any pictures! I took the second and third pictures above just right now, so that you'd have at least something to look at! hehee. Today, Brad is off to work in the school's library, I'm going to be sewing some pillowcases, and then December and I are going to my friend's baby shower (she is due just a few weeks after me, on Christmas Day.) So that's our update! I apologize that it's not more fascinating for you...our really interesting news will be coming in about five weeks' time! YAY!
