One giant post

I have a little catching up to do...


We have not had Internet since the new year (computer issues) so its been hard to keep up with the blogging.



I'll start off by saying that things are going well for us. I am still not working, but I think its for the better as every little move and motion gets harder and harder as my tummy gets bigger and bigger. I have also been sick the last week, so its been nice to stay home and get some rest.I have a OB appointment next week that will give us a lot of stats. I will post a belly shot then. Prepare to be shocked. I look like a lower case "b".


Matt has been busy working and going to class for Jiu-Jitsu. I told him to do as much as he could before the baby is here since I will probably want him around more then. He took my advice :) He has really helped out a lot with things in the house while we try and prepare for our son. We are in denial that there are only 3 months left.


A couple of weekends ago I had the day off from assisting Courtney, so Matt and I headed into Tacoma to visit the Glass Museum. We had so much fun. We watched them blow a few vases and we took our time in the exhibits. Matt was really enthralled with the creation of the pieces and he spent a lot of time watching the artists in the studio. It was nice to get out and do something together. We don't have a lot of time to do that any more, especially since the weather has kept us pent up so many days this winter.


My "kids" are all doing great as well. Brimley turns 1 this weekend, and he has sure grown up to be such a great guy! We love him a lot. He has recently learned to ring a bell when he wants to go outside. Princess and Brimley have become close friends now that she is spending most of the cold days cuddled up next to him. They even play together occasionally. I love it. Brisbane is her usual self. She is content watching Brimley run around, sitting next to me while I watch TLC or chewing on one of her many bones. She has gained a little weight in the last few months (oops) so her New Years Resolution is to regain her figure by the summer. Tina and I had a bonding moment this last week when she chose to eat out of my hand. Usually she is pretty grumpy, so this was momentous in our relationship. :) She still hates to be held, and scratched me pretty good when I tried, but at least we're heading in the right direction.



As if we don't say it enough, we are so excited to add one more little family member to the Aprecio household. I am LOVING being pregnant, but I cant wait to have my little boy! Its coming up quick!

The next time that I am in Seattle, I demand to go the Glass Museum. That looks absolutely amazing. I remember being completely enthralled by a glass blower at the Renaissance Festival out by Apache Junction once. Jealous!

I love the pictures of your "family". I hope your animals don't all get jealous when you bring home your new pet in three months.

FINALLY an update! And I would also like to visit the Glass Museum...Doug's mom has wanted to go for 5 years, and we fail her every time.

Looking forward to a few more updates. Keep growing that healthy baby boy. Our kids are super excited to meet him!!
