Vent Session

I have a few things that I need to get off my chest. And, since Scott is tired of listening to me, I turn to you, my faithful readers!! :)

Here goes:

  • I really HATE the new layout on Facebook. Now, I know this isn't something to get bothered about, but it drives me crazy! Every time I log in, I get so irritated! Why can't they just keep it the way it was? I'm so sick of them changing it. As soon as I get use to the last change, they change it again!! What the crap?! Moving on..
  • I'm really tired of working. I like my job, so I know that sounds weird. I just wish it wasn't every day. I'm really lucky that I work part-time, so that helps, but I still get tired of going every morning. I guess I'm just tired, and want more sleep. I just like to take it out on work! :)
  • Our dishwasher is broken. It has been for some time. Need I say more?!
  • I'm having "Glee" withdraws. I can't wait for the new season to start this Spring. I have the CD, and I listen to it pretty much constantly. No, really I listen to it ALL the time!! I'm not sure if it's helping or making it worse, though! :) I just want to watch more episodes. Thank goodness for Hulu, though. At least I can watch some of the episodes from last season.
  • I'm going through this phase where I don't feel like eating anything. Or nothing sounds good for me to eat. This is bad when pregnant. I know I need to eat, I just don't have the desire to sometimes. It gets a little frustrating. I get frustrated with myself often, but that's another post for another time... Maybe.
  • With that being said, I also have to motivation to do anything. I don't know if the fact that the dishwasher is broken or what. I don't want to do the dishes. I don't want to clean the kitchen. I don't want to fold the laundry. (At least it gets washed, though.) I don't want to clean up Sam's toys in the living room or in his bedroom. Like I said, no motivation to do anything. Maybe this is why I'm tired of working, too. Hmm? I'm not sure how to get my motivation back, though. I've tried a few things, but nothing seems to work. Guess I keep trying, right?
Well, I guess that's all for now. To end on a happy note: I love my family so much. I have been sick for the past couple of weeks, and Scott has been so good to take care of Samson while I sleep. And while Scott was working, I'd head over to my mom and dad's house, and they'd help with Sam and let me crash on their living room floor. I'm feeling much better now, but still need a lot of rest. So, off I go to put both Samson and me down for naps!! :)

Where to start...

I don't even know where to begin it's been so long since I've blogged. :) I guess I'll start with a baby update. Things are going well. I am now 14 week and in my second trimester! (Yippy!) Second trimester is the best. I've been feeling so much better, and I think I'm slowly getting my energy back. (We'll see how long it lasts!) I went to the doctor last week, and things look good. I heard the heartbeat, and the was super exciting. It took her a while to find it, so I was a little nervous, but she found it, and it was so cool! I love hearing the heartbeat for the first time! We'll probably find out what we're having the first week of March. We'll be sure to let you know. I'll most likely post it on Facebook before I get the blog updated, so check there, too!! :)

Well, what have we been doing for the last little while? Not too much, actually. Scott rearranged out living room a while ago so we could have a place to put our Christmas tree. Samson thought he was being a good helper!!
He was also a good helper while we decorated the tree!



Above: Family photo op!

We took Samson to see Santa a few times:

Needless to say, he was not too fond of him!!

Abbie was so excited for Santa to come to her ward Christmas party. All night, she kept telling me, "Courtney, Santa is coming tonight! I'm so excited to see him!" It was so cute. She kept asking her dad when Santa would be there. She told him that she wanted the game, Don't Spill the Beans.


Lexi was more interested in the candy than anything else!!

And again, Sam's not a fan. Even though this Santa was very "grandfatherly" to him!! ;)


Samson was not too interested in Santa this time. I think he was just a little too tired to really care!

For Lexi's birthday, we went to Jungle Jim's to play and ride the rides. Samson had a good time. I couldn't ride any of the rides since I'm preggers, so I was in charge of the camera while Scott did some rides with Sam.





Here we are at Christmas. These were taken Christmas Eve before we went to bed.



Christmas morning: Sam was more interested in eating breakfast than the presents.








This drill was his FAVORITE present. He played with it all day. I must admit, it is pretty cool. It has a few different bits to put on it, and you can even put it in reverse mode. Pretty awesome! Sam is such a boy, though. Why wouldn't his favorite toy be a power tool?!

He finally got the hang of taking the wrapping paper off to see what was inside.



Scott made the picture frame for me. He had given me the picture a few years ago for Christmas, but it's such an odd size that we've never been able to find a frame for it. So, he made one for me! It turned out great!! Thanks, babe, you're the best!!

A couple weeks ago, Samson had his first hair cut. Whenever I told people that I was going to cut his hair, they would get mad at me. They didn't want me to cut his cute curls off. I didn't want to cut them off, either, but he needed a trip and a clean up! He did SO GOOD!!! He was a little unsure at first, but he just ate his sucker, and took it like a man!! :)


















He thought the trimmers tickled!! He thought it was so funny!

His reward for being so good while getting his hair cut. (He ate most of that bowl of ice cream)

So, there is the Huish update!! I'll try to be better about blogging. It just seems to take me so long to do it!! Hope all is going well for everyone!!
