Decorating the Nursery

So Aaron and I are finally getting around to decorating the nursery. We made these the other day, and we're taking a poll. What to you think the design on the H is supposed to be? Leave a comment and tell me what you think...

A few updates on our lives:

1) Aaron is waiting until next year to apply to grad school, since we'd have to get his application in within 2 weeks and he'd have no break between undergrad and grad school. So in other words, we'll be in P-town forever.

2) Noah has finally turned the corner and is feeling a little better. His fever has gone down considerably, though he's been really klutzy. Maybe he's just tired.

3) We went to Gram's memorial service yesterday. It was quite a nice tribute to her and a lovely day to spend with family. They talked a lot about how life was for her growing up - no running water, no electricity, two sets of clothes, and living out of their garden and off the land. It made me realize that we can make life great with so much less than we have - recession or not. We miss her a lot.

4) Training for my half marathon has been going well. My stamina is increasing nicely; still working on the strength aspect of things. I haven't been perfect in working out, but based on my progress, I should be on target to run my race on April 4th. Yahoo!

5) Team Monkey Spit is well on its way to intermural fame once again, this time in soccer. Thanks to Aaron's offensive and defensive prowess and his willingness to run his lungs out, as well as my two lucky assists to Blake, we're maintaining a healthy 1-0-1 record. Intermural Championship T-shirt, here we come!

And here are some more pictures of Noah, cuz he's cuter to look at than we are.

Happy Birthday to Me!

Happy birthday to me,
Liesel made me a cake for free.
Aaron gave me moose antlers
and made me look funny.



The cake says Super Mom, Super Wife, and Super Friend.


They humored me and played UpWords with me for my birthday.

My happy birthday song.
