Absent Times

Little by little I'm starting to feel better so I thought today would be as good as any to jump on here and let you all know that our family is doing well! I've been a lot less sick this time than I was with my first 2 pregnancies but fatigue has definitely found me. I've been so tired that getting on the computer has felt like a thing of the past. I went to my first prenatal appointment yesterday and everything appears to be going well. Right now I'm in my 8th week and the expected due date is December 15th.

As far as John and the girls are doing - John took 2 weeks off of work to get some projects around the house done such as getting ready for our downstairs remodel he'll be doing in a few weeks (okay, okay...I'll be lending a hand or two as well!) and getting our pantry re shelved. I know it may sound a bit selfish, but it's been really nice having him home more to help me out while I've been feeling a bit sluggish. I think after his time spent down in North Carolina for 2 months, he's enjoying this time off as well. Aubrey's a busy bee as usual. Her soccer team made it to finals, which starts tomorrow. My intention in the beginning was to comment or recap on her games but it became too much for me to do. Her team has done such a great job though. All wins except one loss and one tie. We're really proud of her and how great she's doing. Two games ago, she scored her first goal as well as blocking one from going in the net when she played goalie. She's also doing really well with her piano lessons and has a recital coming up at the end of the month. You're A Grand Old Flag I believe is the song she'll be playing. Jocelyn is also doing really well and a busy bee herself. Constantly keeping us on the move, getting more molars in (which makes her NOT so pleasant to be around!), and talking more and more.

Well, I know it's not much to report at this moment but that pretty much catches you up to how we've been doing. I'll try to write again soon. Love, Leslie
