Update......long post!

WOW! What a wonderful, but crazy last couple of days! I was able to go to my parent's house for Christmas. It was great and I loved it, but I HATE driving! Josh was of course working so it was me and the dogs....on the 16 hour trip. The roads going there were fine, but coming back were HORRIBLE! The trip took me over 26 hours! There were times I was going 15 mph and praying I just stayed on the road! My dogs are the best travelers around. They curled up on their pillow on the passenger seat and slept 98% of the time. It was so nice to have them with.

Going home is so nice. My parents are wonderful and I love that feeling of no responsiblity, no cares, nothing. I had to take tons of pictures, and I am sharing lots right now....lots to scrap before I start on baby things. :)

Every Christmas Eve we do the Santa thing. Dad does a FABULOUS job and we have such a good time with it. We were running late so I did not get as many pictures of that as I would have liked.

And my new "brother" Ralphie. He is so cute I can not even stand it! The dogs had a good time together. Mostly because mine do not know that they are small and he does not know that he is big (he is always trying to get into laps!). Lilli would chase him around, steal his toys, and not let him by his food bowl and he just loved it! My dad is so funny now that he has a puppy again. He already has Ralphie going to work with him everyday and people know him and have treats for him where every they go.....and people think my dogs are spoiled!

My poor babies were blocked from going down the hallway at my parents house. They could both jump it, but here they are sad looking at everything they are missing! :) The cats were down there and needed a little bit of safetly from the monsters!

I am just enjoying the last week of break and finishing getting the house unpacked and organized. I hate the process but I am loving the out come!

Big day

Well today was the big day!! We went to the doctor and found out that we are having!! It is so exciting, and its a.........BOY!! Baren John Vadapalli

is the name we have picked out and could not be happier about it! He was so busy moving today that the lady could not get good pictures of his spine, which she said is normal, so we get to do another ultrasound in 4 weeks! Like I was going to complain about that! It is so amazing what they can see on the ultrasounds! It makes everything so real to us!

He is healthy, weighing in at a whole 11 ounces and is about 10 inches long. As for me, I am proud to say that I have NOT even gained a pound yet!! Watch out the last 4 months! When the lady told me that I called her a liar....the changes me body is doing is crazy and you can tell big time!!

Anyways, I need to get back to getting ready for Christmas! :)

I have some pictures I want to share. We were trying to take a few good ones for our Christmas cards and I could not stop! I love how some of them turned out!
