Amanda apologizes for the lack of a blog last week, however as many of you know she is pregnant with baby #4 due to show his face July 2010. Little blob is causing quite the ruckus and mommy now has been diagnosed with hyperemesis gravidarum and is taking lots of medicines to keep her from vomiting and losing weight and getting dehydrated. However this all after not being able to keep anything down for 3 days and spending 3 days in the hospital recovering.
This week after Amanda was released from the hospital on Wednesday we readied for Thanksgiving. Amanda's mom and her fiancee flew in on Thursday, Thanksgiving Day (this apparently saved a bucket load of money). We planned to combine Thanksgiving with some friends, but our traditions are so different that it really didn't go well. We won't do this again in the future. The boys ate lots and had fun. Even Gavin really had a grand time....the mashed potatoes were a hit, especially since they went well in hair, nose and ears! He needed a bath after. Friday was black Friday shopping for Rob and Amanda.....they finished out the kiddos presents and found GREAT deals!!! Even tho they waited a little late (9am). Saturday everyone put up the Christmas tree and decorated it. Looks OK, but we have decided we need a better one and some new decorations for next year, ours are becoming old and sad looking. We got some new lights for outside, which hopefully gets decorated soon. Also trying to get our Christmas card picture taken. Will be doing the Christmas letter this week, if you'd like to get one please send your name and snail mail address to EMSAmanda83@yahoo.com.
We had Gavin's birthday party on Sunday and unfortunately no one showed up. But Mommy made a cool cake and he had a blast with his presents....will try to post them on the blog when they get uploaded! Until next week CHEERS!!!!
