Happy Holidays!!!

Well, Christmas has come and gone, and little baby boy still does not have a name.  ARGH!  I told James I wanted a name by Christmas, but oh well.  Maybe we'll shoot for New Years, but that probably won't happen either.  We already have his nursery furniture (crib, changing table, & dresser) already here at the house, although the nursery is FAR from finished.  We have the basic colors painted, but the chair rail still needs to be put up and the decorative painting needs to be done.  My goal was to have that done before we left for Indiana for the holidays....but that's not going to happen either.  MAN!  I'm really falling behind here!  Actually, I've been sick...remember?!?!  Plus with all the holiday parties and stuff, we just haven't had any time.  I actually woke up this morning and my bottom lip had exploded with 9 (NINE!!!!) fever blisters!!!  It's huge!  I'm not even kidding!  So I headed over to Urgent Care to get some medicine for my lip.  If it was just one blister, I would have suffered through it, but this is RIDICULOUS!!!  Anyway, I'm very glad I went because evidently the sinus infection I had a few weeks back decided it didn't want to go away.  It sent fluid to both ears that has now become pussy.  EWWWWW!  So I am BACK on antibiotics...plus cream for the blisters.  HOPEFULLY the swelling will go down before we reach Indiana Monday.  

What else is new?  Well, I'm TOTALLY uncomfortable already and I know it's only going to get worse.  I can't remember the last time I had a good night's sleep.  I've been wanting to buy one of those pregnancy pillows, but since I'm cheap and don't want to spend the $60, I haven't gotten one.  LUCKILY Alison never used hers and has let me borrow it.  It's not the life saver I thought it would be, but it definitely helps!!!  Now if I could just get the doggies to understand that I don't want them sleeping on top of me anymore, I'd be doing ok!  I know I should just make them sleep on the floor, but I can't!  That would just break my heart!!!  (I know, I shouldn't complain then, right?!?)  Anyway, we're supposed to take my 24 week belly pic tomorrow; hopefully we can remember to do that since we completely forgot about week 23!  In case we forget though, here is a picture Leanna took of me and Pacey watching James take Rigsby for a ride on the tractor Christmas Day (23wks 6dys).Someone should have told me to STAND UP STRAIGHT!!!  Anyway, and for those of you who didn't get our Christmas cards because you failed to send me your address (or I forgot and please forgive me if I did!!!) here are the pictures that were on it!

Anyway, I hope everyone had a MERRY CHRISTMAS and best wishes for the New Year!!!!!!
