Good to be Home

I'm glad to be home. Thanksgiving with the inlaws was good, tho exhausting. The boys traveled REALLY well which made me SO happy, but the trips were still long and arduous and I'm glad we don't do it more often. I insisted on brining the turkey for dinner, and everyone was impressed with the difference it made in the flavor and juicyness of the meat (yay!). Otherwise I kicked my feet up mostly and just ate, watched TV and kicked back with the hubby. We got out and had a lot of alone time together too which was really fabulous. I appreciate that time so much with our schedules being so completely screwed in the real world.

The pregnancy is still going well, the babies are growing and I am feeling flutters pretty consistantly now in the evenings. I'll be 16 weeks on Wednesday and as early as tomorrow we could find out the sexes. I'm still not being as active as I'd like... but every day is a new day, and there is no reason not to get my activity in today.

According to the scale this morning I am up 15lbs for the pregnancy... so I've officially caught up on weight gain. I think I need to pay more attention to what I'm eating so I'm doing a simple food log this week to see how its going.

Its gonna be a busy week - Christmas pix for the kids, two doc appts (tues/fri), financial adivsor appt (wed), gotta get the annual holiday cards/photos sent out by this weekend I think... is it January yet? Wish me luck!
