FREEEEZZZZEEEE WEEEK!

okay this has nothing to do with baby this has to do with the fact that we live in cleveland and it is super cold out.

story of the week:
our thermocouple died on sunday when the wind chill was say -25 degrees
so our house was 41 degrees and the cat....well she was a popsicat
we started a fire in the fire place turned the heat up to 70 degrees pressed the red button on our thermocouple and and waited......
finally went to bed the house was at a warm 51 degrees!
woke up the next morning to the cat wrapped around aaron's face and another 41 degrees
coffee i think is over rated if you really want to wake up quickly wake up to house you can see your breath in
all is good today aaron ignored the warning signs of electrocution and twisted two wires together until the boiler guy could come out and replace our thermocouple now we sit in a warm 61 degree house
ah winter in cleveland wish we were in hawaii with the family

Week 22

ITS BIGGER!
the other day aaron actually had to put becky's socks on.
not much to say this week got lots of pictures though.
we had a fun morning the other day frankie our "not"cat was chased out of the house because a bird decided to come in.
the reason this story if ironic is frankie usually leaves bits and pieces of birds on our front porch every day during the summer, so the fact that she got scared by a bird well.......not sure what to think.
Had a doctors appointment yesterday and was able to hear her little heart beat which is still super fast. next month i get to take the diabetes test which means i drink 10 fl oz of "lemon lime" drink which sounds like oh so much fun. i also talked with my doctor about the fat baby syndrome that seems to run in our family......
yup i was a big baby, looked more like the michelin man than a baby almost 11 lbs!
so my doctor said the only way to keep the babies weight down was to either take up crack or start chain smoking neither of which she recommended. the best i was told was we would have to wait until i go into labor to to find out if i am giving birth to a porker.
everything else is good baby is kicking and mom is getting kicked.
we have been working on the house:

our dining room wall which we finally have, and our stairs are finally finished!
the last couple of weeks cleveland finally got snow and lots of it so here is a picture of our little house all dressed in white

stay tuned as more pictures and entertaining stories are revealed until than......
ps. thank you cyndie for all your great posts and stories!

week 21

thar she blows!
yup i actually bumped someone the other day with my belly. it makes hugging aaron a little more difficult but my belly has created a really nice ledge for holding drinks, becky is her own walking cup holder!
not much to tell for this week signed up for lamaze classes, breast feeding basics, and daddy bootcamp.
next on the things to do list is taking all these classes, ripping out the floor in the dining room, oh...the good news...we have walls in the dining room and they are straight and flat!
the nursery is coming along in the sense that we have only two holes now instead of four still working on the colors
these are the colors we are thinking, remember these are the
background colors for a wonderful mural so the blue will be the sky and the green the grass. becky is also doing a lot of mental shopping, mental shopping is the planning stage before actually spending money
things we are looking at:
stroller : bumbleride rocket
car seat : britax roundabout
baby leg warmers: babylegs
baby bath products: burt's baby bee
at this point becky get overwhelmed with the gizmo products like baby swings, baby play yards, bassinets so keeping it real in cleveland we are sticking with things that don't come with an mp3 player.
