Just a little update (mostly for me)

Yesterday was our 3rd anniversary!!! I am so glad I married Jason! He is soooo good to me, even when I don't deserve it! I am still madly in love with him, and can't wait to see what every day brings! We both had to work yesterday, and he had school last night, so we celebrated on Saturday. I made him breakfast in bed and then we just hung out and tormented each other the rest of the day. We watched some movies, played some games, and napped! It was a very nice and a very relaxing day. He got me an auto start for my truck so I don't have to go out in the cold any more to start it! He said it was a gift to both of us, so he didn't have to hear me complain about going out to start my truck in the winter. (He's smart too!!!) I love it! I know its really an Alaska thing, but just imagine if you could press a button from inside your work, home or where ever when it's -40 below, and your vehicle started and warmed up!

On to other news... Things are going really good, I am at 11 weeks. I am feeling great, except for the fact that clothes don't fit like they used to... Jason has to go thru a fashion show every morning with the "do I look fat or pregnant?" question. I am not quite big enough to wear the maternity clothes, but I look pretty chunky in my regular clothes. He is a good sport though! I still get really tired by about 6 or 7 pm. I hardly ever make it past 9 pm now! Partly to blame is the Alaskan winters though, it's dark by 5 pm! My few cravings have been cardboard like jerky (that stuff that comes pressed like paper -gross I know) V8 spicy, raspberry lemonade, and more often then not, Claussen pickles. Anyway, my heartburn has gotten a little better, and I am still making my trips to the potty way more than I expected! As for the rest of our life, Cheer is still on a little break, which I am loving for the time being. We start basketball season the first week of December. The snow has started to accumulate and we have about 6" now, the temperature has dropped and it dips below zero almost every night and only single digits during the day. I was hoping that being pregnant would keep me warmer, but I think this baby is just hogging all my blood flow! I am constantly freezing! Other than that, just enjoying the time!
