Hi everyone. I've been getting all sorts cute Christmas cards, you all look fabulous! I'd hate to break it to you, but my Christmas cards are going to be late! We are waiting for the ultrasound and to find the sex of the baby to send our cards on the 19th. Things are still about the same here, I'm still sick, but I've only puked 2 or 3 times and I'm slowly gaining weight. I'm starting to look big, I really can't fit into normal clothes any more! Recently we did venture out of the home and made ginger bread houses with the Olsen's and the Redding's. Even the babies were having a good time!


When we got our "house" home, Milo didn't waste anytime to start munching on it! Every morning little bits our our house is gone.

Things have been a little rough for Ethan since it has been finals week, but he hasn't lost his sense of humor. He wanted me to share this story with you. So the guys often play tricks on each other... So one friend left out his cell phone and Ethan texted to his friends wife... "Honey, I've got a rash down there." (Aren't boys gross) All the guys were cracking up! His wife texted back... What the!!! What are you talking about!!?? Ethan was laughing so hard he had to leave class.

I hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday season. We love you all.

So I'm just sitting at home sick, while Ethan is speaking at a baptism, so I thought I would have time for a quick update.

So far everything is looking good (well, good enough). I've finally gained 2 lbs. and as long as I take the nausea medicine, I keep my food down. I still feel sick and pretty tired, but I'm able to eat more and a wider variety of foods. So we are now trying crock pot recipes so I don't have too cook when I get home. I still go to sleep at about 7 or 8 and I've done all my Christmas shopping over the internet, so I've officially turned into a hermit. School has been really tiring. I don't have much energy and feel pretty sick by the end of the school day. I'm looking forward to Christmas break and maternity leave.

Ethan has been doing well. He's approaching finals and he feels pretty good about it. When we come back from Christmas he starts his official internship. He's looking forward to the work, but not to the commute to Pomona!

The baby looks good. And speculation has begun as to the sex... You're sick all the time, it's a boy. The heart rate is fast, it's a girl. You're carrying low, it's a boy. All you're weight is being carried in the front, it's a girl. All speculation will cease on the 19th when we find out the sex. We are going to include it on our christmas card, so if you'd like a christmas card please email me or reply in a comment to me with your address.

I hope everyone is doing well. Love you all!
