Baby Baby Baby

ok, no baby still, but here's the update-quickly :)
We are scheduled for a c-section on February 1st at 8am. They are concerned with the baby's size especially since weston got stuck and he was only 8lb 3oz. If I go into labor beforehand, we will labor it out and hopefully have a natural birth.
So that is the update. We will let you know when the new one arrives with all the details :)
As for now, that is it!

Christmas and Beyond!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
We had a wonderful Christmas with family this year.
We traveled to New York with the Clark family for the annual ski trip. It was a lot of fun. Chad got to go boarding with his brothers and parents and even with Kristen for a day. He said it was the best conditions he's been in on the east coast! We got pretty lucky since we went in the early season.
We also were able to enjoy other festivities while there. Teri, Kristen and myself all got pedicures and massages-absolutely WONDERUL! We also went snow tubing and had our Christmas celebration while we were there. Weston got a toddler Bible from Uncle Cody and Aunt Kristen as well as a construction flashlight and a front loader from his uncle Cory and Leah. Grammy and Grampy got him a little people nativity scene plus some other small things. The little people nativity was enjoyed by his other cousins quite a bit at the Snyder Christmas.
After a week of fun, all were happy to get home and on a some-what normal schedule-including sleeping in separate beds and rooms from a certain child.
We were only home a couple days before the Snyders started their descent upon our home (actually my parents home! but i call it ours too since we have lived here now for over a year...good grief!)
Everybody was here by Thursday and we had a blast-a very exhausting blast. There was a lot of yelling and playing and screaming and eating-All in All...a lot of FUN!
Weston was spoiled to death of course at this Christmas celebration. He got a jumpy-zebra thing from AJ, a shake-up police car from Great Grandma Kilmer, a cars sleeping bag and a car toy with tools from Grandma and Grandpa and a dump truck from Uncle Jer and Aunt Erica.
We really enjoyed the family visit and hated to see everybody go. The week went way to fast.
We then had our own family Christmas on Sunday night after everybody left. We got weston 4 wooden puzzles and a cars suitcase which he drug around after him for the rest of the night and then next day.
I dont have pictures uploaded yet, but I will post when we do.
Now for the "beyond":
Baby update-We are now 35 weeks along-only 5 more weeks (maybe less!). This baby is very active still and I am having A LOT of contractions. I didn't have this with Weston so maybe my body is preparing to go a little earlier. I'll be starting my weekly appointments next week.
House update-We have backed out of yet another house b/c of lender-seller issues. What a hassle this whole thing has been. So we are back on the market. Now there is definitely no way we will be in our own place before the baby arrives, so my parents will have to deal with a newborn once again. Poor poor people! Hopefully the right one comes along soon!
That's all for now-Happy New Year!
