Tis the season

Well with one day left until Thanksgiving, Joanna and I did something last night we had never done before, yep we put up our Christmas tree.

We also successfully were able to get all of the outside decorations up as well. Yes we were the first in the neighbor to do so but since we only get to put it out once a year we thought why not start a little sooner. We still have some inside decorations to do but no need to be in too big of a rush.

Also for you viewing pleasure we though we would include another video of Blitz. He really is a lab at heart, he loves water. I found this out a few years ago, he loves to attach the water bottle, or at least catch the spray as it comes out. So for the fun of it this morning we caught him on camera.

Make sure you lock your door

So Friday after work Joanna decided to go out and do a little shopping. In case you do not have any stock in Kolh's here is a tip for you, get some. I think Joanna is one of their top shoppers. Of course they keep sending her these 15-30% off your entire coupon so she does some serious damage during these shopping sprees.

Well today while shopping she found a lot of things that she needed. As her tummy gets larger her clothes are getting tighter. So she grabs her clothes and heads into the dressing room. As she approaches she passes a lady of the Indian descent and can hear her talking to her daughter in the dressing room. Joanna can see that the little girl is in the last dressing room so she went in the second one. Now she did do the proper thing first she knocked on the door, and then asked "any in here", in which no one replied so she went in.

Once she opened the door the GRANDMOTHER, who was well into her 70's had her top and her bra off!! Joanna quickly closed the door and said she was sorry and bolted into another dressing room. Once inside the dressing room she tried her best to rub the image out of her eyes. She quickly informed me that "gravity" had fully taken over and it was not a pretty sight. She has told me that this image is burned in her mind and we are trying to figure a way to get it out.

Everybody misses daddy when he is gone

Ok so I am on week three of my 4 week road trip with work. The good news is, next week is my last trip for the rest of the year. This week I had a chance to travel the east coast and we ended up on our last day in Buffalo, NY. Once our meeting was done for the day we went to Niagara Falls  and took in one of the 7 wonders of the world. Below are some videos that I took with my phone.

However to top it all off was Blitz's performance. Joanna and I have found out that when someone Blitz knows call the house and leaves a voice message he goes into the most pitiful howl. It is quite funny to say the very least. Well this time Joanna was able to catch it with her phone and below is his cry since I am away, it really is quite touching.

Week 14, here we go

So it has been a few weeks but I have been traveling and while Joanna is starting to get a little more energy, not a lot but a little she is still in bed by like 8:15pm. I have been gone since last Sunday and will leave again this Monday for the week, therefore I have to make sure she has everything we need. Her appetite is still on a roller coaster, one minute something sounds good, then moments later not so much. You name it and I have tried or have fixed it for her over the past two weeks.

Also what you have missed over the last two weeks, Joanna's pants really are not fitting anymore at all. It is bad when I see her putting on my wind pants because they are "loose" around her belly. I officially got introduced to maternity pants and I have to say they look like they feel pretty good. As long as she feels good in them, more power to her. It was interesting when she was trying them on. She and I were talking about how they feel and I simply said to make sure they were not too tight because she had a ways to go and would be growing a lot more. Well I guess I was not supposed to say anything because the "other" ladies in the dressing room decided they needed to tell Joanna everything about when they were pregnant, granted they were pregnant when the model T was built, but they felt they needed to share anyway. At that point I decided to go and sit and wait for Joanna to come out of the dressing room. All in all not a lot going on. Joanna does have a doctors appointment on Tuesday but all in all it is life as normal, or normal as normal can be right now...
