Popcorn Popping

Tonight as I'm sitting here on the couch I'm feeling popcorn popping in my stomach and I finally figured out it's probably the baby kicking me. I love the feeling and can't wait to be able to feel it more and more. I went to Jazzercise tonight so that's probably the reason for all the movement, hopefully it's a good thing and that he likes it because it felt great to go to class. I'm not teaching anymore for now, but I have decided to take a few classes here and there just to get in some exercise and tonight it felt great, I got home from our cookie exchange about 4:30 and really had nothing to do, there was nothing on TV so I decided to hit the 5:45 class tonight. Once I got home I filled the tub up and took a nice hot bath, now I'm ready for bed!

This weekend was a pretty relaxing one, Friday I had the day off work, Tom and I bought a new TV on Cyber Monday from Best Buy but we had to go to Davenport to get it, it was a good excuse to do a little shopping. I was out to look for baby furniture and the only pla ce we really went to look was Babies R Us, we found a set we liked but I still like the set from JcPenney's better, so I have to decide in the next couple of months so we can get it all ordered. After Babies R Us we hit the mall, I wanted to go to Motherhood, I was in need of new bra's and I finally found a few. I'm not even going to say what size I had to go up to, but HOLY COW! I just hope they don't get any bigger. We got a few Christmas presents bought then headed to the other end of town to pick up our TV, he stopped in to Gordman's to exchange Micayla's jacket, then to Best Buy, they had everything ready, we loaded it up in the car and headed for lunch. We stopped at Steak N' Shake I was in the mood for a yummy shake, they have the best. We headed back to DBQ after eating. We didn't do anything the rest of the night except relax, Tom was in bed about 7:30 because he was up all night and day, he didn't go to bed Friday morning when he got home from work so he was beat. I had to stay up to pick Brandon up from work about 11:00.

Saturday morning Tom was supposed to go hunting but the weather was crappy, it rained all day! So the guys he was going with called and said they will go Sunday instead, so Saturday we spent our day baking. We make Scotcharoo's and Peanut Butter Blossoms, they both turned out yummy, we had to make 3 dozens of each. We got a call from Linda saying her oven went out so she came up to finish her baking, we made a few different things, she made turtles, they are my favorite and mounds bars/rolls. Tom's dad ended up joining us as well, we made Panini's for dinner then relaxed the rest of the night.

Sunday morning Tom got off hunting about 7:00 and I got to sleep in. It felt great but I always feel so guilty sleeping in, I don't know why but I feel like I'm missing something, don't ask, I'm just weird like that. I got up around 10, took a shower, got all my cookies ready to go and headed out. I made a trip to the mall to get a few Christmas presents then headed down to Linda's, she made a Chicken Tortilla soup and it was too die for, I had 2 bowls! I think we'll have to try and make that again! We made some almond bark pretzels and divided everything up, we ended up with A LOT of cookies and treats.
