So I’m not even ready for Christmas yet. I know that I only have a few presents to get, but the thought of actually braving the shopping environment gives me hives. Since my wrists are not partially numb due to the amount of baby blankets I have made the last few months, I am NOT making ANY Christmas gifts this year!! Thank God I got Steve and Erin’s blanket done (after three years…). At least I can look forward to some post-Christmas relaxing with the Rosencrantz family….yay for babies!!

Tweek hiding
OK, for some reason, my computer or this website hates me and wouldn’t let me put this picture on the previous post so, out of extreme frustration, I am giving it its own post. Grrrrrrr.
More Obligatory Cat Photos
Steve and I just bought a new cat tree/scratching post for the cats. The goal was to get them to stop destroying the new computer chairs we bought a while ago. Recently, we had to get rid of their old “scratching posts”, aka our nice chairs (see the post about Britt’s pillow for an example of their work). Since we also bought a new digital camera around the time we bought the scratching post, then we just had to try out the camera on the unsuspecting cats. Or should I say cat. Tweek is the only one who regularly plays on the cat tree. Little Girl is not as excited about it, but she’ll scratch at it everyone once in a while. At least someone is getting use out of it! On with the pictures!
P.S. Sorry about the bright eyes. We’re still working with the camera!

New Baby Stuff
Mom’s been dying for these photos! Since we got a new camera, we were able to play with the camera and make Mom happy. Hooray!
Here I am at 30 weeks. Evelyn tries to knock me over by kicking one side, then the other. She hasn’t tipped me over yet!

Life, as usual
I thought I’d post something since we haven’t done anything with this page in quite awhile. I’m not sure anyone is actually reading, so I get to say whatever I want.
Baby is doing great. Our current favorite full name is Evelyn Celeste. Evie is pretty much for sure, Celeste is still questionable. Whatever her name is, she is doing just fine and is kicking me everyday. She particularly doesn’t like it when I curl into a ball to sit on the couch. I guess she thinks she should get more room than that.
We are well into the house buying process. Only 10 days until closing and we haven’t got the loan type we want and the appraisal has come back too low. At least we have a wonderful real estate agent who is handling a lot of the details. Still makes us nervous though. We’ve packed up part of the apartment, including books we don’t use, baby clothes and toys, and clothes that currently don’t fit me (which is most of them). There is still a lot to be done though!
I’m nearly halfway through my tax class, but I think my brain is full. I can only take so much about deductions and extemptions and credits (oh my!) before I go totally insane!
I started a new part time job. I’m currently the Youth Handbell Director for St. John’s Lutheran Church in Vandalia. It’s really fun getting to work with the kids!
OK, that’s about it. Steve’ll have to write his own post, if he’s ever not busy with work. Ha! Yeah right.

Home again, home again, jiggity jog
Well, we made it back after the week and a half spent in Seattle. We both had a great time but are happy to be back in our own home. Now we just need to get our pictures developed so we can put them on this page. Next up: back to life as usual.
