This is old news to most, because I am SO behind on blogging.... but, we are expecting a little mini-Williams in May! That's partially why I'm so behind on blogging, and always saying "tired" when someone says "how are you?" I was going to post our 12 week ultrasound, but of course it won't upload. So imagine all those ultrasounds you've ever seen, and that's ours. Only cuter of course. We are excited and I'm glad to be mostly out of the sick phase and just in the tired phase. That's my big excuse for being so behind on blogging.

So, let's see, what else has happpened since Halloween?

My mom had her 78th birthday on November 5, so we had her over for a little celebration. Here's Mom and her cake. Only 4 candles because 78? I'm not that cruel.

Cake and ice cream. The kids were so excited. Can't you tell? Aaron and I were released as Cubmaster and his lovely Assistant. We had our last pack meeting at our house and had a bonfire. The theme was Native American lore, so we did a lot of those old campfire participation stories and such. Here's Aaron conducting in front of our bonfire.Brother Mason is our new Cubmaster. Here Aaron is turning over our "Talking Stick" to him. I was going to post a whole bunch of photos of all the boys and their parents participating, but sometimes Blogger doesn't let me do what I want. (I'm not really a "limits" kind of person, so I am more than a little annoyed that I get limited on how many pictures I can post....) Anyway, we had lots of audience participation in our skits and jokes and such this time around... here is Chad and his mom doing a joke for us. Our bonfire was a lot of fun and a good way to end our tenure as Cubmaster/Cubmasterette. We are now the Webelos leaders, so we are still in Cub Scouts (yeah!)

SO, I think that's all for November. Thanksgiving was different for us this year. Usually my family has a big reunion on Thanksgiving Day, but this year it was decided to have a campout the weekend after. We spent Thanksgiving Day with Aaron's family, which was nice. We then all were sick enough (Aaron with "walking" pneumonia, me with chest junk which may or may not turn into the same thing among other various complaints, the kids all coughing and hacking) that we couldn't go up to the cold for camping. We were disappointed about that.... so November is over and that's about all I've got for ya. Hopefully I'll get to post more soon.
