My Hobbies!
Recently I have found new realms of boredom and have tried to find some new ways to occupy my time. Here are a few of my hobbies...
A couple of weeks ago Moss and I were at the store and we decided that maybe getting me a puzzle would help fill my hours in the day. So we found a box that had about 10 different puzzle in them. They are picture of old houses and stuff. I was doing really good at first but then it got really hard when it was time for the sky and road and stuff so I am trying to finish it but I think its going to be awhile longer.
One thing that Moss and really got me into is reading. I read a lot of books during high school and seemed to enjoy them but I had stopped reading once I wasn't required to. Once we had been married for awhile Moss helped me find some books he thought I would be interested in and I haven't stopped since. Recently I have gotten into the Anita Stansfield novels. I was avoiding them for awhile but I finally broke down and cracked open and book and I am really into them now. It's nice to read about how crazy other peoples lives are and then be really appreciative for the life I have especially the husband I have.
I always love to bake! Moss will testify of that. Sometimes we will have like 4 different desserts and a really crappy dinner. Baking is just so much easier. Today I baked some cookies they were pretty dang good!
My favorite hobby and most expensive one right now is buying baby clothes. We had stopped buying them for awhile but then once Hailee was born and we saw how little she was we figured we needed some really little clothes for our little guy so we went to Wal-mart and found some cute little outfits. I really don't like the idea of dressing my kid in pajama type clothes but thats all they have for newborns so we will just have to deal with that until he gets big enough for his way cute outfits from Dillards.
My latest project that just came to be yesterday is to start making photo albums. I decided to print out all our photos we have so far and put them in these cute little albums that only cost about $8 each (at Micheals and this week are 40% off). They have little memo sections next to each picture to so I can write little things about each picture. They even have a little pocket for the cd in the back so if you want you can make more pictures later in case your computer dies or something. So I went to Wal-mart yesterday and the picture should be ready tomorrow for pick up. The other book that says baby on it I found at TJ Max yesterday for only $6. I always wished I had one so I thought I definitely for have one for our baby. It has some really good things in it and lots of places for photos.

28 Weeks Along
Here I am at 28 weeks. I finally found some pants that fit thanks to Bonnie and then Walmart. Poor Moss had to wait around while I tried on like 20 pairs but don't worry I found some in the end. My face is getting fatter by the day, which I don't understand the baby is not living there. The worse thing is that you can't do any face exercises to make it go away. Oh well I will just stick to the elliptical and treadmill and do the best I can. On Wednesday I get to go get some more blood drawn! Yippee for me! As long as Moss is there holding my hand I will survive!

Trip to the laundry mat!
The other day Brayden and I were sent to the laundry mat to wash Bonnie's huge comforter. I have to admit I had never been to one before and it took me awhile to figure out what machine to use, I swear there was at least 50 machines to choose from. It was hard enough figuring out which ones were washers and which ones were dryers. I know I sound like an idiot but its really hard sometimes. I finally found a good washer to shove the thing in and settle down in a really hard chair to spend some quality time with my good friend Brayden, after buying him some cookies from the vending machine of course. Brayden only lasted on the chair for about 5 minutes before he wanted to explore the place and open and close every door possible on all the machines. At one point I was squatting down against a machine because my legs hurt and Brayden came over and did the same thing, it was pretty cute. Next I stood up and crossed one leg over the other and watched Brayden attempt to do the same thing. It was so cute, his legs were not quite long enough but he did try and just put one leg in front of the other. It was a an interesting experience and I am very glad that I have a washer and dryer at home so I don't have to make trips there, it was a little creepy thats for sure. I didn't have my camera but I took a picture on my phone to show just how cute he is, and a good buddy to keep you company while you wait for a blanket to get done.

She FINALLY got here!
Hailee was born at 9:07 on Tuesday October 21st. Twelve hours after they got to the hospital fourteen hours since her water broke and seventeen hours since Joanna started to have contractions. Bonnie, Heather and I hung out at the hospital pretty much all day trying to be some comic relief for Joanna. Its a good thing I have three months to forget about labor before I have to do it:) Joanna did awesome and they are all doing fine. Hailee is really cute, some babies pop out kinda weird looking but luckily Hailee did not, she even has an inch of Blond curly hair! So cute! Good work Joanna and Jason!
