Whats new?

Here is an update on what we have been up to this last week!

• Justin: Started school last week. Urgh, Waking up at 6 has been hard. We just can seem to get to bed before 10:00. Unfortunately his early class is Calculus and he can't miss that.The other night just as we were getting ready for bed Justin was opening the window. The screen has never been right in that window. So at 9:30 he decided to fix it. Sometimes this can be very frustrating for me. But after a few minutes he fixed it! Yeah, less bugs in the room now! Justin has been able to spend time with Collin and has enjoyed it a lot! Track practice starts this week. Last Saturday the track team had their 5k to see who was in shape and who was not. Justin passed fine. He decided to take his heart monitor, and watch so he could time his run perfectly and not exert to much energy. Hopefully this year he won't have any injuries and be able to perform his best. He is also looking forward to seeing Moon this weekend. It is playing up in Park City, and it looks pretty dang cool!
  
• The Baby: No name yet, but I am still looking. I had the glucose test and was just a tiny bit over the norm level. They said they would call me if I needed to come in and take the 3 hour test. I have not heard back from them so I am really hoping I don't need to take it. The baby is moving around lots. Yesterday he kicked Justin in the butt. That made me laugh. I just finished reading about pain medications and alternative ways to manage the pain of delivery. I am 95% sure I will be getting an epidural. We will see what happens. Justin is still pushing for natural child birth. Maybe one day...
• The Rats: They are still super cute. They have adjusted to moving just fine and have not had any issues. They are getting a lot of out time now. Emma has been taking them out and playing with them after school, and Justin has them out while he does home work or is reading. Macbeth started jumping up onto our computer chair last night so now we will have to make sure to keep that away from the desk! and Magellan has tried climbing up the outside of the desk, we saw him dangling off of one of the drawer handles. It always amazes me how high they can jump when they want to. Some of their favorite things right now are flip flops, electric cords, and books. It is funny to try and take things from them, they really have a tight little grip!
• Katie: Well I have been working and making dinners. Saturday we had some of Chris's friends over to celebrate the end of his phlebotomy class. I ended up making 8 pizzas, and afterward I was exhausted. But the pizzas turned out super great! I love making pizza! I didn't get everything done I wanted to this weekend but that is ok. I need to buy Curtains for our room, becasue you can totaly see through the ones we have. (good times) Also, the "curtain rod" in the room is beginging to fall down. I am going to get a golds gym pass, I know there will be at least 3 months where I probably will not be using it at all. But really I will just need to work it in to my new scheduel after I have the baby. My feet, ankels and hands are swelling more now. Justin was having fun yesterday at church indenting my swolen feet with his fingers. I am also going to get a new pair of floatie flip flops. My old falling apart ones have been a life saver in the last few months! Work is well. I decided to re-decorate my class room. I have not been satisfied with how I decorated it since I did it last year. I have 1 wall finished. and 2 more to go. Unfortunatley I only have a little time in the morning to work on it so it has been a slow process. Red ribbon week is also coming! I love making posters for this week. I am hoping to have the school covered in Anti Drug, Anti Tobacco and Anti Underage drinking posters. I have been getting pretty warm lately so I am looking forward to fall and winter.
