a great weekend

we had a great weekend visit and christmas with the family. mom and dad came in on wednesday evening. landon, sarah and the babies and matt and mandy came on friday evening. it was a wonderful experience except for the fact that i felt incredibly nauseous, mandy had some kind of stomach bug and couldn't keep anything down and grayson and ellie were both sick and didn't sleep well. other than that, we all had a great time together.

my family took good care of me and made me infinitely happy by just being near. before leaving on monday, my mom cleaned my house. i mean, it was picked up before they all got here, but i didn't have the energy to clean clean. my mom even hung clean towels all nice and neat in our bathroom. i know she worked so hard and i could never express my gratitude. i almost cried when i walked in after school and smelled pinesol. it just smelled so clean and fresh and wonderful. thanks mama, you are the best.

the past two days at school have been just about like my past two weeks have been. blah. the good thing is that i told all of my teammates the news so they all understand now and hopefully won't think i'm too much of a baby.

a few weeks ago jenny told me to be prepared to start doing stupid stuff like putting my car keys in the freezer. i haven't done anything like that yet but tonight michael definitely proved that he's having sympathy pregnancy stupidity. we looked all over for the remote for the downstairs tv. a few minutes after i gave up, he walks into the bathroom smiling. he put the remote in the pantry while getting a snack earlier today. hehe. i'm sure he can't wait until i start doing stuff like that.

other than that, things are pretty normal here and now i'm ready for bed. goodnight all.
