In Response to Eric's Comment

On my previous blog Eric Peterson asked me "How is summer break going?" So I decided to take this blogging opportunity to answer that question.

First of all I've been tired, moody, and sick. Morning sickness at its best. I haven't actually thrown anything up but I suppose thats because I haven't eaten anything. In fact I've lost weight, which was one of my summer goals, although I have removed it from the goal list since finding out that I need to eat for two.

Just last week I went to Ohio to visit my friend Katie, it was a very nice relaxing vacation, once I got off the airplane. Add morning sickness to motion sickness and it is not a pretty picture, but I'm back in Minnesota in one piece so I can't complain too much. I got a lot of scrapbooking done and even started a new album that will be a record of the events of the next 8 months. So far its pretty cute, I learned some new scrapbook techniques in Ohio and have put them to good use in the new album.

Josh and I have just been enjoying our time together. Once school starts we probably won't see much of each other and then once the baby comes who knows what our lives will be like. We went to Canterbury last Sunday, I lost but Josh won, which more than made up for my losses. We started a crib fund. So far we're about a quarter of the way there. At this rate we only need ot go to Canterbury 3 more times!! Maybe even less if I can stop losing all the money.

After we told Josh's parents yesterday (who were very very excited) we called Grandparents and some aunts and uncles yesterday to tell them the news. I think that my Gramma L and Patric were the most excited. Patric's been rubbing my belly since the day we got married spreading rumors... the new rumor is is that its twins. It was a lot of fun to tell Gramma that she is going to be a great gramma.

Other than that its been pretty quiet around here. Except of course for the jackhammering right outside our apartment that woke me up at 7am this morning.

Now that there are some changes in our lives hopefully I'll have more to post about. I'll try to post some pictures sometime too, once I get fat. Although I doubt they will be as good as Matt's drawings of the squirrels and the tangled fishing line.

Finally Summer Vacation

Today I finished my last final of the summer semester. My first semester as a second year is now done. I get the rest of August off, but I'm going to be working at the print shop so I don't know how much of a vacation it will be. I don't really want to work but I really want some new dressers so that was the deal. Whatever money I make I can spend on furniture- yah!! So if it turns out to be really sucky then I will just quit.

I haven't even started and it already seems like it might be bad. One of the coordinators was mad at Emily because I wasn't there, well I told the other coordinator that I wasn't starting until Wednesday. Its not my fault they can't get their act together. And I'm sorry, but why should Emily have to deal with her anger, she's not my keeper! Idiots...

We'll see how long I last.
