I had the day off so hubby and I headed to IKEA to look for some baby stuff. Anyway I found some mirrors that I was excited about and of course as soon as we pull it out of the bag at home it's busted. Ah, I guess I'll just have to make another trip back! :)
Oh for all you Wisconsinites that hate the food here I have a little secret....Baja Fresh is right by IKEA. Yeah we were thrilled...and full! mmmm sad thing is I could still eat it right now. Pathetic that we have to drive over an hour for some good Mexican, totally worth it though!

our magical Saturday
Today has been my ideal Saturday...it all started when I woke up to sunshine, yes I realize it's still like 7 below but hey the sun was shining and my mood could not have been brighter. I had a great workout, did some major cleaning and reorganizing (always puts me in a wonderful mood) David had a free meal at one of our favorite restaurants only to find out that in addition to his free meal (free refills too!) he got a free dessert (and not a whimy bowl of ice-cream either, this thing was perfect!) then we hit up Banana and found some major steals, followed by 4 shirts for under $10 at Old Navy! I'm just waiting for lightening to come down or our house to burn or something...we've been on the outlook all day at when this streak will end! I'm off to bake treats for my class tomorrow....on second thought maybe that will result in the house burning down. Ah it's worth a shot!

horrible parenting
It's official...this baby has been living off of tums, honey-lemon water and soup for the last 3 days. Hopefully I'll get over this sickness soon. Bummer.

safety first
Hubby and I went all around today just shopping, eating and enjoying our day. As we pulled into the parking lot of a store we saw this.......
Now correct me if I'm wrong but isn't it a bad sign if the police have their own parking spot in a store parking lot? Yeah we probably should have left but come on live a little right??? Oh Milwaukee!

watch me grow
Ok you asked for it! Prego pics galore! I just had my 25 week check up and I'm happy to report that everything is lookin' or should I say cookin' good. He is moving around a lot which makes things so fun! I know I still have awhile but I am really going to miss being pregnant! Besides the constant "teen skin" I love love love it! It's also the best excuse for not running fast, lifting hard, sleeping, eating whatever, wearing ugly clothes etc. so I think that's what I'll miss the most! Anyway here's me!
10 weeks! And so the bump begins!
17 weeks! And so it continues!
20 weeks! Getting bigger by the day!
25 weeks! Yikes...it's gonna blow!

Man oh man where to start. We had such a fun Christmas this year, it's crazy to think this was our last one just the two of us. It still hasn't quite hit me that we'll be parents but anyway that doesn't have anything to do with our trip....here are some highlights that I hope to remember.
*smooth roads the whole way there AND back. I'm still wondering how we got so lucky!
*sleeping in the car because we are cheap-o
*my dad going to the ER....nothing major but still yucky for him. (sorry about all of that dad, wish you could have felt better during your "vacation")
*watching David and his dad put a marble racer together for like 6 hours
*watching movies with the Luke girls
*new pjs
*listening to Kelsie play the piano
*listening to David play his guitar
*attending church and seeing old friends
*going to Brandy's bridal shower
*watching all the kiddos open their presents
*having the climate change make my face breakout even worse than normal....oh wait that wasn't a highlight!
*Jordan getting an elk, which meant that we stayed a little longer!
*reading The Christmas Sweater....I was so proud of myself for reading a book...only to find out Dave's g-ma read like 5 during her stay. Next year Jodee. Next year.
*rushing to get back to turn the rental car in, only to find the place was closed!
*many many trips to Wal-Mart and K-Mart...I swear I didn't know a single soul there...and I call Craig home. tisk tisk.
-Grandma helping Jarren with his new toy-
I know I am leaving out SO many key points but my brain is a little tired right now so maybe later. Anyway it was so wonderful to be with all of our family and to reflect on how lucky and blessed we truly are.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
