Hillbillies and blankets

So, I took this picture of Josh when he decided it was funny to make a little fu-man choo moustache and keep it for a couple of days. And then we were eating Kraft Dinner ('cause we're classy like that) and he pulled his pants real low and look like an idiot. I just love him. Haha, I laugh everytime I look at this!

Here is a picture of the baby blanket I made the other day. I was getting tired of waiting to sew one with the sewing machine I don’t have yet, so I got some fabric and some scissors and just did a little of this a little of that and voila! I am posting this for Kristi, because I want her to see what a good job I did, haha.

So in other non-picture related news, Josh and I found an apartment for the valley. We’re signing a lease next week. It’s an old post office that they converted to a little house like thing. It’s going to be awesome. Expensive (we’re talking like a lot more than living in the city, which is just dumb) but it’s going to work, and I feel good about it. So yea, we don’t move until August, but I am glad it’s out of the way now.
What else…Josh had a job interview today, for a summer GIS position. Fingers crossed he gets it. That would just be awesome.
In baby news: Baby B is doing well. She likes to make me horribly uncomfortable at work by sticking her bum, or head, or something right up in my ribs. I feel like I cannot stretch far enough back to accommodate her under my freaking rib cage. Oh well, it’s all for the cause! Also, I got my blood sugar test yesterday. Cried like a baby (as per usual). Needles and I don’t get along and this one seemed especially bad, leaving a bruise and everything (and I don’t ever bruise). I have an appointment to see the anesthesiologist mid month about some problems I’ve had with prolonged sedation in the past. I am sure it won’t mean anything as far as delivering baby the natural way, but if I had to have a c-section, things might have to change a little. We’ll see what he says. And hey, if I am comfortable, a little bit extra groggy time is fine with me.
I hope you all are enjoying the sun out there. It’s still a little cold for my liking, but I’ll take the sun any day, and on Sunday it’s supposed to be warm and sunny. Yay.

I love your blanket, it looks so nice, Great job!
Fingers crossed that Josh gets the job... if he shows up with that mustach he's got it in the bag!

Kristi Drennan said...

first off...don't read that first comment from kagahn...it's a virus! Delete it!!! I got one just like it today.

Second...baby blanket is way cute! You're already a Molly!

Third...glad to hear you decided on the post office house. It'll be great.

Fourth...I find it weird the glucose test. I didn't have to get a needle or drink anything. Weirdness.

that's all.

Apartment sounds great...Josh and Phil should talk about facial hair...Phil often leaves weird mustashes, etc for fun...wonderful. Blanket looks super cute and that sounds freaky about the anesthesiologist...hope that goes well...definately wouldn`t want to feel a c-section!

julia, you should have let me test your blood sugar. we just learned hwo to do needles in school and i'm a pro now. hah they must have went through your vein with the needle which is why it bruised.. only i would be educational while commenting on blogs. i enjoyed your post. got my brain turning for exams.. byeee. hah :)

Good job on the blanket!
I am sad you guys are moving though :( We need to have you guys over before we go to Alberta. One last game for old times sake!!!

Love the pic of Josh! Crazy hillbilly! I hate the glucose test...that drink is so gross! When I had Maddie, my doctor had me eat a Snickers and drink a Coke an hour before my test instead of the sick disgusting orange drink! Blechhhh! Oh, and cute blanket, good job!

thats a pretty funny picture...the funny thing is, is that I can picture him doing it.
Thanks for the baby update. I can't wait to see pictures of when she gets here, only what 3 and a half months left.

Julia; I know I haven't been on here for a while - so for starters, congrats on having a girl! I don't think I've seen you since you found out, and I'm such a slacker with blogging, etc. Your blanket is so cute! good work. it's funny with those glocose tests - some people really don't like them. I think the drink is a cross between sunny-D and orange pop. I think it's kind of yummy! That's just me though. You can think that I'm weird - I'm okay with that!
