1. We went to Vegas and had a great time, even packing Jackson around with us. We didn't do heaps, but we did enough. Sam and I were able to go to a show: Ka (Cirque du Soleil), which was really awesome. And we got to catch up with my fantastic cousin, Boedee. Not only did she feed us a delicious home-cooked meal, but she also watched Jackson while we went to the show. Thanks again! We love you!
2. Sam became a budget cut. Next week is his last week of work, he's being laid off because of the new state budget. We're hoping to find a new job soon, obviously. (Sam wants to remind everyone that there is a bright side to unemployment: lots of pajama time).
3. Jackson turned 18 months today. He's so big. He loves singing the itsy-bitsy (incy-wincy when dad is singing it) spider (while trying to do the hand motions), riding his silly tractor toy, and throwing things. And he loves dogs. Hopefully he won't actually want one.
4. I guess this is the big one. We're having another baby (could also be a tape-worm, results aren't in yet). What were we thinking? (I know what I was thinking...) I'm pretty sure it's all Sam's fault. But, either way, it's happening. The arrival date is sometime around 20 Sept. I'm so happy to almost be through with the first trimester. And I'm sure Sam is pretty happy about that as well (no comment). Jackson, he's clueless, but he does say "baby" a lot, so maybe he has some idea.
So there you have it. You are all updated. Maybe one day I'll get better at this blogging thing and start giving all these updates their own posts. Maybe, but if not, oh well, I'm pregnant, it's a great excuse for everything, right?
