        <p>I finally made the decision to switch everything over to blogger. While I have loved having my Vox it just lacks serious creativity in my opinion. I hate that while I have so many layouts to choose from I can&#39;t put my own twist on them unless its a self made header. Where&#39;s the fun in that? Blogger allows me to also intergrate my twitter where as all Vox allows is a weird little widget. That&#39;s no fun and it looks awful I might add. Sorry Vox, but I&#39;m found something better. So long!</p>   <p style="clear:both;">

        <p>I am actually one of those crazy people who actually likes the snow! To me it signifies the essence of winter, but I am a little worried about giving birth in the middle of February. Hopefully by then though it won&#39;t be as cold as it is now, but knowing my luck it will be. Right now the temperature is 7 degrees and dropping.

        <p>So I got an inbox full of assignments to do for work. This should be tons of fun. I think I&#39;ll finish a lot quicker though since hubby has been home taking care of Noah. I don&#39;t know what I am going to do when he goes back to school. Its so nice being able to just sit and get my work done in a timely manner. Oh well I manage most of the time without him I&#39;m sure I can manage it when he goes back to school. New Years is Thursday I can&#39;t believe it! Where did all the time go? I haven&#39;t thought of a resolution yet, but I&#39;m getting there! Cross your fingers that I&#39;ll be able to keep it!</p>   <p style="clear:both;">

        <p>Christmas has come and gone. My family that was visiting from New Orleans went home today so my house is mine again. I haven&#39;t yet had time to actually clean up and get everything organized. Noah got everything he wanted for Christmas so I&#39;m happy he&#39;s happy but now he has a birthday coming up in January so he&#39;ll be getting a lot more. I got the lense I wanted for my camera and I&#39;ve been testing it out. I really want to go and find somewhere I can get good actions shots of wildlife. I tried to photograph a bird this morning, but I kept losing him in the viewfinder so I gave up. Lol! Ok I&#39;m going to go finish watching Drumline and try to put things away. Wish me luck!</p>   <p style="clear:both;">

        <p>At least until after Christmas. I&#39;m so exhausted, but I managed to get everything done! Now all I have to do is drive out to the office Monday and drop off my stuff. Sometimes I really hate Christmas I always feel rushed and I hate that. Oh well at least now I can relax (a little) and enjoy my family who&#39;s coming in to visit. Hopefully they all have a safe trip and we all have a good time.</p>   <p style="clear:both;">

        <p>First I wanted to tell the people who have access to my blogger that I posted some new belly pics so go check those out! O.K. big news I finally got my new vehicle and I think I shocked everyone with my choice. I&#39;ve been going back and forth all weekend long and I decided to get a Chevy Suburban. My husband and I both agreed that we weren&#39;t finished having children (I know a woman at church who has 7 so maybe we&#39;ll try to beat her out lol) so maybe something big would work out for us best. Plus the snow and the fact that we have a big family already it just seemed to make the most sense. So now when we go to the airport to pick up my grandparents and my aunts we will have room to shuttle them to our house in only one vehicle! Hallelujah! I always liked driving Justin&#39;s Avalanche so the transition from my VW Bug to the Suburban was a piece of cake. I&#39;ll post some pictures later, but I have to say I almost didn&#39;t think my new car would make it home safely. I drove it to McDonald&#39;s because Noah was getting hungry as were my husband and I, plus we figured we&#39;d let Noah wear himself out. After about an hour we decided to head home, but I was not feeling to well so I let my husband drive. We&#39;re on the freeway everything is going smoothly, but for some odd reason the vehicle in front of us slams on their brakes. My husband was a good car length behind them so he didn&#39;t hit them or anything, but he was so angry because he knew exactly what they were trying to do. I have never seen Justin so mad and next thing I know he decides he&#39;s going to follow this man home and have a word with him. The man (who was a huge butthold btw) gets out and he&#39;s like &quot;You were tailgating me so if you tailgate I&#39;ll brake.&quot; Excuse me? That is really pathetic that someone would purposely try to cause an accident and even I was starting to get a little mad. My husband was really polite and he asked the man if he could see his lights in the front of the vehicle and he said he could in which my husband replied &quot;If you could see my lights I wasn&#39;t tailgating.&quot; Then we just left and went home. Honestly some people in this world should not be given driver licenses. I mean to say you were going to cause an accident because someone was too close to you is the dumbest thing I&#39;ve ever heard! Maybe if you were going the speed limit people wouldn&#39;t come up on you so quickly, but it&#39;s whatever now. My husband did very well in handling his anger and we all got home safe.</p>   <p style="clear:both;">

        <p>First off congrats to my dad who gave his first homily today as an ordained deacon. We&#39;re all very proud of him and he&#39;s worked very hard to get to where he is today. Speaking of his homily of course he made sure to mention us and tell everyone in church how awesome we are. While he&#39;s naming off names I realized instead of calling our new baby Adelyn he actually just went straight to Madelyn. I knew it was going to happen considering he is one of those that has an awful time with names so if you go to far out of the box he just won&#39;t get it. My husband had actually mentioned to me just changing it to Madelyn for the sake of our child probably ending up being called that by my father regardless. While I did like the idea of trying something different I am realizing now it just isn&#39;t very practical and our daughter will constantly be correcting people. So with that being said she will be a little miss <strong>Madelyn Claire</strong> and I am quite relieved that the name game is all over. We&#39;ve officially decided on something and we&#39;re sticking to it! </p>   <p style="clear:both;">
