YUP!

I'm not sure if it's the child within, or the fact that I laugh about vampires...But this shirt is awesome, and one day, yes, one day I shall purchase it. Snorgtees.com has some pretty great shirts if you want to wander on over and laugh a bit.



KJ: This one's for you.

The Journey

So last night about 11:00 I landed in Fort Lauderdale. The guy we got the car from was really nice to drive 45 minutes to the airport to drop it off for me. since they were going south and i was going north we just did all the paper work right there in the pick up area of the airport. The security guys weren't too pleased with us, but we were quick about it and it all worked out. So It's a 1999 Isuzu Rodeo. It's a lot nicer than we had hoped for, and considering i just put 14 straight hours on it, it seems to be a good reliable runner. This made for a less eventful trip than I'm use to. Last time we did a Florida trip we ended up changing an alternator in a parking lot. Needless to say I was okay with an uneventful trip. Any way it'll be a good one for our soon to be little family.

home alone...with the dog

Chris in on a current adventure down in Miami...Not because he wanted a vaca without me...cause that would be weird:) He went down there to pick up our new baby wagon and drive it all the way back up for us. Poor man has to drive 15 hours tonight and then go back to life with school and work. We are ever so grateful for mom and dad vial and their kindness in helping us out so much with the car. Dad found the car, which is sweet pickin's once again. It's the best shape we had seen for that car (by the way, it's a Izuzu Rodeo) and for the cheapest we'd found it! We're pretty excited, and get this: it's got A/C AND a Cd player. I'm stoked!

Meanwhile, Kelso and I have bundled up as much as possible to keep warm because our normal heater machine (Chris) is MIA. I have to admit that i'm a big pansey and am afraid of the dark so I am vetoing Kelso's midnight walk...I won't be brutal, i'll walk him early in the morning. I don't think he even cares, he's so deep in sleep it's rediculous.

Question: I'm writing a short story for a class of mine and it's a tradgedy. Basically the Wife dies in the beginning and i'm debating if I should have the husband die in the end after he's come to accept God and becomes a good person. Any comments? I'm not naturally one for tradgedies... it's just the assignment! :)

awww...life.

While Chris and Kelso are out on their nightly stroll I thought to give a little insight on the latest here in the Appalachians.

School starts tomorrow....Which I am dreading more then am excited for. I'll take a guess for Chris and say he's looking forward to a new semester, of course that is awesome. He's taking some great classes I think he's pretty interested in, and slowly, but surely we are making our way up the grand G.P.A. ladder. Hopefully to better improve our minds as well of course this following Spring semester.

Mom and Dad Vial are coming to visit us on their pre-Vermont visit. We are very excited about that, although I believe Chris is going to be sadder then he will admit to loose the Cheese Block.

Our wee babe now is on week 9 and it is currently growing a bunch (so 'they' say). It now has limbs and eyelids and will be sprouting phalanges soon. (sounds like plant life, huh?) sea monkey pictured in example A-1 below.
We are still working on getting insurance and I haven't officially been to a doctor yet, although we do finally have a proof of pregnancy, so it's really there guys. Get excited!

Mom Vial I'm going to take up your advice to start a list going for babyism needs/wants. I'm not selfish, I just like material things :)

We will try to update about school soon. Still haven't dug my camera up our of my purse to get pictures from Vermont....maybe one day... Until then! tata!

Ps. I am currently reading The Wednesday Letters. Very interesting book, I do enjoy it. Anyone else read it?
