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't put my own twist on them unless its a self made header. Where's the fun in that? Blogger allows me to also intergrate my twitter where as all Vox allows is a weird little widget. That's no fun and it looks awful I might add. Sorry Vox, but I'm found something better. So long!

So I got an inbox full of assignments to do for work. This should be tons of fun. I think I'll finish a lot quicker though since hubby has been home taking care of Noah. I don'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'm sure I can manage it when he goes back to school. New Years is Thursday I can't believe it! Where did all the time go? I haven't thought of a resolution yet, but I'm getting there! Cross your fingers that I'll be able to keep it!

Christmas has come and gone. My family that was visiting from New Orleans went home today so my house is mine again. I haven't yet had time to actually clean up and get everything organized. Noah got everything he wanted for Christmas so I'm happy he's happy but now he has a birthday coming up in January so he'll be getting a lot more. I got the lense I wanted for my camera and I'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'm going to go finish watching Drumline and try to put things away. Wish me luck!

At least until after Christmas. I'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's coming in to visit. Hopefully they all have a safe trip and we all have a good time.

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'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't finished having children (I know a woman at church who has 7 so maybe we'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's Avalanche so the transition from my VW Bug to the Suburban was a piece of cake. I'll post some pictures later, but I have to say I almost didn't think my new car would make it home safely. I drove it to McDonald's because Noah was getting hungry as were my husband and I, plus we figured we'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'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'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'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's like "You were tailgating me so if you tailgate I'll brake." 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 "If you could see my lights I wasn't tailgating." 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've ever heard! Maybe if you were going the speed limit people wouldn't come up on you so quickly, but it's whatever now. My husband did very well in handling his anger and we all got home safe.

I just went to check how much my paycheck was for (they do direct deposit only) and thank goodness my bonus was included this paycheck! I was kind of worried it wouldn't come until right before Christmas due to how our pay period is set up, but I'm thrilled it came today. This means I can finally finish up all the Christmas shopping I've been putting off. I think tonight I'm going to make my runs to the Glenbrook and Target. Those are really the only 2 places I need to go I'm not going to even attempt to hit up Wal-Mart until the middle of the week. I figure maybe I'll get lucky and it won't be as crowded. Than again its Wal-Mart it's always crowded. My hubby's finals are finally over (meaning I get him all to myself for at least a month) so he's taking Noah off my hands for a while. I'm excited to go to Target though because sure I'm going shopping for my family and what not, but that doesn't mean I can't pick up a little gift for myself. I want to see if they have the Sanuk's they've been advertising on their website. They are a bit pricey, but I heard they're really comfy and comfort is a big deal for me right now. I hope I find them considering I really have my little heart set on them! I saw they had them for men too so if I find a pair for Justin I'll by him an extra Christmas present. Wish me luck!

I've been around I just totally forgot I even had a blog. I've been super busy with the Holiday's coming up and in the midst of all this rushing my Wacom tablet decided to crap out on me. I need it for work so needless to say I wasn't too happy about having to spend extra money I could have used on Christmas presents. I got the Bamboo Tablet and so far I have no complaints and I'm glad it's black instead of that really annoying blue I had before. I've gotten some work done, but Noah is constantly wanting to play with it so I've been lagging a lot. I'm hoping this weekend my mom will take him so I can finish my work and start my Christmas shopping. I don't want to be a last minute shopper, but I have a feeling I will be.
