Hi all! Sorry we have not posted in a while, things a been a little crazy! We are still here and we are not frozen yet so I guess that is a good sign! We managed to get our car ready for winter (heaters for oil pan, engine block, etc.) so it will start in the mornings when we have below zero temps. No sooner did we get it done than two days later we hit our first negative temps!

Here is a pregnancy pic of me this week (33 weeks!). I may post a few more as the weeks wear on, but for now you can just expect belly shots. After I have the baby I'll smile and wave in the photo, but while I'm feeling like a lumbering elephant this is as good as its going to get! Baby is doing well and is sitting REALLY low. I've started having contractions here and there with back pain and pressure, so we are excited and hoping that around week 37 or 38 we get some action!Hopefully in the next week or so we will have pics of the babies room and untrasounds, but for now I don't have a recent ultrasound pic and the babies room is full of boxes. We are having some minor storage issues but have (finally) found a storage place that seems to be run by decent people with all their teeth and locks on the doors. Once we get the boxes cleared out, we will take pics!

The ice cometh! Here is the river right outside the village. Clearly the temps are starting to drop, we are seeing more and more ice flow down every day. Can't wait till we can go out and take a stroll on the river. Literally.
The hills that surround us. We were hoping to catch wild life but no such luck that day.

This is the pumkin Jerry carved for halloween and he is very proud. While it didn't win any awards, its #1 in our book! (we think we got screwed, the dude whose won wasn't nearly this creative...)



Ummm, this is a random drive way and Jerry said I had to post this for all the Strongbad fans out there. Something about pumpkins in the snow....there's a joke there, but I guess only certain people are going to get it.





A shot of the town in the snow and the river. Brrrr!




The sunset from where we live. The Northern Lights are starting to form as it gets darker so hopefully soon we will have pics of that, but for now we just have sunset like this one!
