getting back on the horse....

Well, I haven't posted a lot lately. One of my best friends went through a really hard time recently, and I wasn't really in the mood to sit down and philosophize about or even just comment on stuff.

Also, we've been pretty busy lately. The new house is very exciting, and we've started moving our stuff in, little by little. Phil and I are going to paint this coming week, but we're only doing our room. The baby's room'll keep till the fall I think.

I found a green lava lamp for the baby's room, and we've decided that if we have our little Rosalie then we'll turn her room into a rose garden theme with cats, and if it's instead an Asher or a Micah we'll make it a jungle with frogs. That way we can paint the walls a base coat that'll go well with green, and use the furniture that we stenciled with leaves already for our room last year.

I have lots of cat stuff, since cats are my favourite animal, and we also have lots of frog stuff, tho that's kind of a funny story.

When Phil and I were dating I asked him what his favourite animal was, and he actually didn't have one. He thought that was weird though, so he made one up on the spot, he said that frogs were his favourite. Well, after that he got frog-themed gifts and packages in the mail with little oragami frogs, and my friends got him frog stuff.... He finally broke down and told me a few months before we got married that he hadn't been into frogs at all, but he kinda liked them now. lol.

So we're going to put all of that to use. We also have an ivy paint roller to do trim in green... it's going to be very nice and tranquil.

We've been babysitting for my Aunt and Uncle this week, we've had a little 2yr old boy and a 7 month old boy. It's been fun, and Phil's getting all confident with kids again, which is great. He's so good at it when he puts his mind to it! :D although, the baby's had some trouble adjusting to him cuz Phil's not exactly skilled in the art of smiling, especially for babies. When he forces it, it's really more of a grimace, and I can see why the baby gets scared. lol.

Long enough for now, I suppose. I have my last prenatal appointment in Langley next week, and we need to be all moved in and ready to go in the next two weeks cuz Jon's taking us to the airport on the 31st to sleep there and catch our 6:00 flight out on the first. Toronto, here we come.
