Sparks has gone back in for Sarah, she has sent in her cookie orders and hopefully we'll see those around the end of March. She also got some new glasses and lost her 3rd tooth. She was very happy this morning to see that the tooth fairy had come:) Jessica is back into her piano lessons and doing very well. We missed a few lessons due to messy weather so we are going twice this week to make up some of those missed ones. Jeff has been having fun playing with my Kitchen Aid mixer......I have tried some cookies and cakes but he is always making bread and pizza dough. The kids LOVE the homemade pizza so we are just going to make it a weekly thing around here as it's alot of fun to make up!!! Jake has been enjoying the new games we got over the holidays for the Wii. We just got "Outdoor Challenge" the other week and it looks like tons of fun......too much movement for me to do right now......but I can't wait to test it out after the baby comes. Georgia is just my little monkey.....always full of energy......she has started telling us when she has a dirty diaper which makes me excited, as the girls were so much easier to train then Jake. It's hard to believe that she'll be 2 in a few more months. I have been laying low, thinking of all the things I need to do, enjoying my OTH nights at Karen's and our monthly card nights at Lis's house. It's always fun to just get out for the night with the girls!!!
Baby #5 is still baking away.......causing me pain, but not too much that I can do. I've started physio which is awesome while I'm there but within an hour I'm just back to feeling crappy. My doctor is sending me in for some more bloodwork and an ultrasound to see how big baby is at this point. I'm just waiting for the appt time and hoping it's on the 7th floor so I can see what baby is......I'm sure with my luck I'll end up on the 1st floor and just have to take a surprise!!
We are in full swing reno mode in getting the office done in the basement. I think we have everything now to get it done. Jeff has got some of the drywall done and bought the "zebra wood" flooring the other day. I just hate how long things take to do sometimes........I wish you could just do it all in one day:) We ordered a new dresser for our bedroom from Lake City Woodworkers and it should be here by the beginning of March. Once I save up my pennies again I would love to order another one so Jeff and I have matching dressers. I have been cleaning out some stuff, anxious to juggle everyone to where they should be in time for March. It's been frustrating feeling so bad and wanting to do so much. Here's to hoping that February will pass by quickly, I have lots of friends having babies so it will be fun to see them all arrive, knowing that ours is just around the corner!!! I'm throwing on a bunch of pictures on the end of this post so enjoy checking them out.......hope you are all staying warm......it's freezing here today.....-27 with the wind.......brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!
These first 3 shots are for our buddy Jeff in England, he picked up new duvet covers for all the kids for me at IKEA and brought them home at Christmas......they love them!!!! Thanks a ton!!!

Those cards look great. I wish we did something like that around here.
It has been busy for you and the family! I can't wait until you have that baby so you can feel better. You were productive at card night, better than me, lol! Lis has a new date for Febuary picked out so hopefully you'll be able to go. The cards turned out beautifully and your kids are so sweet. I loved seeing Darren playing with Georgia the other night. Can't wait to get those cookies from Sarah. I'm looking forward to playing the new "outdoor adventure" game too!
what a great little update... Sarah must have lost the tooth after saturday because it was still in her mouth when the kids were over... we are looking forward to our cookies from Sarah, good thing were going to the gym now in prep for when we have all those cookies in the house. Sounds like everyone has been keeping busy, and Brandon and I will have to stop over for all the kitchen aid baking soon!! G looks so cute in that sweater!! Fingers crossed that you get to go to the 7th floor, and find out what the baby is!! Love the cards... I want to get that alien for my cuttle bug!! We have to start a card blog soon!!! miss you tonight, no oth...can't wait for next monday!
I love the cards and the pictures! Sorry to hear you're in so much pain and I'll keep my fingers crossed for a 7th floor apt! I hope the next month goes by even fast for you... you know, for the sake of your belly!
Mmm, sounds like there's lot of yummy food at your place, as usual! Love the IKEA stuff! And I hope you get to find out what you're having! Can't wait to hear....
You are so busy! I can't believe how you do it! I'm amazed by you! Hopefully you'll get to go to the 7th floor and the pain can finally end! Wishing you all the best from way over on the otherside of the country!
Love you!
P.S.
You're cards are FANTASTIC! I love how creative your family is!
YAY! I was pumped to see the pics of the kids duvet covers. They look great! Its hard to tell when they are in the packaging, although they did have some hanging on display in the store, its still a bit different seeing them on an actual bed. I'm glad they ended up arriving safe and sound after their little detour on the way home! Hahaha!
