Happy Holidays!

I returned from Texas on Wednesday evening. I went down for my cousin's wedding, and then over to Dallas for a business trip so that I could make everything tax deductable. I find that long trips always bring up pertinent questions, such as: 1. Why do they do road construction everywhere I want to drive? 2. Why do people like to cut me off so much? 3. Why do I have to pay money to drive slower on a road they're perpetually doing construction on? and 4. Why do people like to cut me off so much?
Once I answer all these questions, I'm sure I'll be a much smarter man.

Kacey and I leave this evening to go to Saint Louis for Christmas. We recently got a new printer/scanner, so we'll put up the ultrasound pictures after the holiday, and hopefully we'll get some pictures from the holiday we can put up too. We wish everyone a good holiday.

No, really...

We are keeping this up to date, there's just not terribly much going on. I mean, there is, but it's boring. Or something like that.

We were lucky enough to get about 1.5 inches of ice here in Columbia, with more winter weather threatening by the minute. Fortunately, the roads aren't too bad. The most trouble I had was getting my car up to the Saturn lot to get checked out for the trip I'm taking to Abilene and Dallas. I did tell Kacey that she's not allowed to slip and fall on the ice while she's pregnant.

I'm leaving tomorrow for Abilene to go to my cousin's wedding, after which I'll go to Dallas to do some filming for the not-for-profit side of a business that a buddy o' mine runs. Hooray for being able to make a vacation into a business trip! I'll have a few days at home after that, then Kacey and Gizmo and I will go to Saint Louis for a whirlwind Christmas as we have each year. I think it ends up being 5 visits, and 4 meals in 2 days. Seeing how I've apparently gained 10 pounds between my last 2 doctor visits, I'll probably have to keep even a closer eye on what I consume.

Everything's going fine for Kacey and the baby; she's sleeping most, if not all, of the night now and has been feeling pretty good.

14.5 weeks done, 25.5 to go! (12/21 revised because of poor math.)

First baby pics

So we had our first official ultrasound today, and well it's going to be hard for Jordan to deny we are having a baby since he actually saw it move. He/she's an active child and didn't really want to cooperate, I don't know where he/she picked that up from. Not to mention that every time we tried to look at his/her face he/she would put their hands over it so we couldn't, again not sure where that comes from. We do have some really good pictures like the one where he/she is sucking or biting his/her hand. Plus we know that he/she has ten fingers and ten toes and a really good heartbeat. Although we do also have pictures that make him/her look kinda like an alien but oh well he/she is still growing. Another plus I'm feeling way better and I've had almost a full week where I slept all night long. I'm sure that will end soon. Jordan is finally feeling better also just tired from all the work, oh well guess that's life.
13 weeks done. 27 to go. hopefully.
one of these days we'll put pictures up.
