We're still here!

I know it's been awhile since I've blogged, so here's a quick synopsis of what's happened lately:

I'm back to work, and things are going okay. I dread leaving Everett every day, but he's in good hands, so that is some comfort. School has been busy, too, with activities and Christmas program and such, so I stay somewhat distracted during the day.

Everett is growing by leaps and bounds! At his appointment last week, he weighed in at 14 pounds, 11 ounces, and is 25 inches long! And, shots suck. I cried more than he did, to be honest, and then he woke up in the night with a temperature, which is horrible and frightening, but motrin brought it back down, and we didn't have to re-dose. He's talking (cooing), smiling and laughing, reaching out and grabbing things and picking up his head when on his stomach. They grow so fast!

Patrick and Jayme are getting married in Billings next weekend, so we are spending the weekend in a motel. Packing for 2 nights/3 days could be interesting, and I'm running over and over in my brain what needs to be taken along to make this trip enjoyable. We're excited to see family, many who haven't met Everett yet, so it should be fun.

Okay, I have a lot left to do today, like pay bills (yuck) and put up the Christmas tree, and hopefully watch the Cowboys win this afternoon! I'll add some pictures of Everett so I don't get yelled at!
