OK !!! SO FINALLY I HAVE TIME TO UPDATE THIS THING WITH MY NEWS...
WHICH IS NOW VERY OLD NEWS BUT ANYWAY...

I am pregnant, and its most likely a boy (99% sure) and his name is probably Max David Weimer... although Maxton is also being considered.. --any comments???-- I found out January 17th at about 1 in the morning - my stomach had felt funny for a few days so I thought I had better take a test to put my mind at ease (didn't think there was half a chance I was actually pregnant!) it was immediately positive, so I went and bought another test of a different brand (hey there is a 1 in 10,000 chance that its defective) Well, the new test was also positive so I freaked out a little bit. Jon was very very excited, I called him into the bathroom and just pointed at the test.... he jumped around a little and yelled I think :) We weren't planning on having kids until I could quit my job (in like 2 years) but weren't being as careful as we could have been (eww over share) ANYWAY it has taken a few months for it to feel real, but now that my stomach is starting to stick out it seems possible that there is a little person in there. I am 17 weeks along, and I have been very lucky - only really sick 2 days and just tired the rest. I do love to eat though... hopefully that goes away after I have him or I may be HUGE :) I waited a long time to tell everyone, especially the people I work with ( I only told them the first of April!) in case something happened to him, and because I wanted to know exactly how me going back to work was going to work. I am very lucky because my mom is quitting her job (actually she already put in her months notice so she can "get ready" lol) and will babysit for me everyday. I am getting really excited to have some hooded towels of my own, they have been my favorite baby item for a long time and I am always buying them for someone else! Jon has his eye on all kinds of baby Nike's and Utes apparel :) I haven't felt him move yet but am also looking forward to that too... I push on my stomach and hold my breath.... but nothing yet.....

OK, so more boring updates on my tile project :)
- someday i will have more exciting things to write about!!!
I FINALLY got around to grouting the tile (about a month after we laid it) so here is how it looks. I HATE grouting, cuz you smear it on the whole floor and you have to make sure to get it all pressed into the seams, no bubbles, has to be all level (ish) and then you spend 2 hours wiping it all off the tiles!! Not so fun. But it is sooooo nice to have a pretty floor now and not cement with rust spots and paint drips! Jon did some fancy cuts around the drain (I am trying to pry the rusted top off of the drain, I guess you can just replace the top part.. but this one is so rusted i cant get it off!)
Tomorrow i am going to seal the grout and put my washer and dryer in --WOOHOO- and my cabinets.... still lots of work till its done!

Every month some of my friends that I used to work with at Alphagraphics
(they have all left me for new jobs)
get together for a dinner party, this was the January party at Carly's house.
It is way fun, and good to catch up on whats going on now that we
don't see each other every day!
I was having a good hair day so I thought i would post this pic:)

Ok, well my mom is telling me that I really need to put something new on my blog...

so here is what I've got: pictures of my laundry room being tiled
( I know I know, try to contain your excitement:) )
Tiling is one home improvement thing that Jon and I are pretty professional at. We have a nice tile saw and Jon is good at making fancy cuts. I do the planning (and buying) and the actual laying. We have actually had this tile for 2 years now and have just been putting it off. BUT I am dying to have cabinets and a counter top in there, so it was time to get to it! I will put picts. on when I have it grouted and the cabinets and washer and dryer in.

I put up my Christmas tree yesterday and that is very exciting because it is only the 2nd tree Jon and I have ever had! There is a tree selling place right by our house, and it was only 25 bucks ( it is kinda a Charlie Brown tree.. but I think its cute)
My living room doesn't look nearly as empty with the tree in there
(some day we will buy furniture...)Now my house smells like pine :)
I had to take pictures outside too cuz it looks so neat in my window!

Twillight Pics

OK, so I am kinda behind on putting up my Twilight pic, but its fun so.. better late then never? I went with my friends Steph and Esther (who were very awesome to get us tickets) and my mom to the midnight showing . Mom INSISTED on dressing like an evil vampire (though I think she looks more like a Sith Lord from Star Wars :) ) so she has red contacts and a hooded trench coat! It was pretty fun to watch people stare at her! The movie was actually better than I expected, I really liked the actors, and I REALLY love the story, the only thing that was lacking was the special effects. (everything looks so much better in my head!) It was WAY fun though and I really want to see it again!

Halloween Pics

Just some pics that a guy took at the Burger Stop Halloween car show. Mom didn't dress up... But I had fun!
