Today we Did Christmas Again

Well we had another Christmas today. I didn't know there were so many Christmases in one year. We actialy have one more to go. After today Kate is very tiered and we are haveing a hard time putting her to bed. Marla is trying know.

Now for 2008 in review new baby on the way, promotion at work, new baby arrives, Marla stays home from work. That's the stuff arrounx here now for nation wide. War, war, OJ in trouble again, Hillary for presidant, I Obama for presidant, Mcain for presidant, Obama wins presidantcy. Bush leads us into a resetion and the economy continues to sink to the bottom faster than a lead weight. Gas prces sore, gas prices fall, which insadentialy furthers the economic down fall and causes millions to be laid off.

Well with all of this hard stuff behind us hopefully 2009 will be a better year. Obama atleast give me hope for change but it is yet to be tested and tried. I k ow he will inherit a lot of mess from the current president, but it seems like he is surounding him self with smart folks. But well see can't judge a book by it's cover.

On another note my prayers and sympathy go out to the Wims family at church. May God be with y'all in this time of pain and trial.

Every body stopped...

Well if any one is still reading my blog I beleage that most every body else has stopped. It for the rest of you I will cointinue to blog I have a renewed joy in it. Today I started working out again I hope ( if Kate has been good enough for me to stop on my way home from work that is). It felt good to work out again. I am a bit depressed thought I put back on some of the weight I had lost prior to Kate. I hope to loss it again and then some before our family cruise in June. I am looking forward to this vacation. Work hasn't been all that crazy or anything but that could be part of the problem. I really like work when we are busy. It at least makes it go by fast. Kate and I are just chillin on the glider. She is passed out on my chest. Well I gusse that is it for now. I hope that every one is haveing a great holiday.

Christmas ...

We've started celabraiting Christmas. Last night we had Christmas with Marla's family. We had a great time eating playing games and of course opening presents. Kate made out like a bandit. She got a jogging stroler and of course clothes and toys. We had to try out the stroler last night when Kate got fussy. She really seemed to like it. It is very smooth. This mourning we had Christmas at our house. Then we went out and did alittle running around to sears and ages other shopes. Tomarrow we are going to Alvin to have Christmas with my dads parents. Then on Sunday we are haveing Christmas with my moms family. And last but not least Christmas with my folks. We are doing it so late so that Jessi & the boy can make it. I hope that every body is haveing as great a holiday as we are.

Monday

Today was monday and was hard to stay at work so when my mom got out of surgery I took of for the rest of the day to spend with her and my dad. Her surgery went well and is recovering well she was very happy to see Kate. As far as work goes it is very hard to be in the office around the holidays. I would have been off if it had not been for Ike. Work is ok king up a bite for me. Even with the added work it is still hard to focuse around there. I'm off Wednesday atleast. Today I discovered that I can sync my iphone with both my personal email acount and my work email. This allows me to send and revive emails from work even when I'm out and about. To bad work won't pay for part of the bill. No mater I would not trade this phonefor any other it is entirely to easy to use and to easy to use. Marla has hers and we are on the coach watching Holiday Inn while surfing the web and posting bloggs. Most of my family is coming into town on sunday for the holidays. Jessi and Jeff are are coming in and staying for the following week it will be nice to see them again. I hope that all of you traveling will have a safe and Merry Christmas.

Another one bites the dust

So this past Thursday my cell phone bit the dust. This has been a great phone and is the first to last to the end of a contract period. Well almost we are about 3 weeks shy. Since I use my phone for work so often I needed to look into a new phone, so Marla and I visited the at&t store by our house to see what we could do. Now in our minds we both wanted an iphone but sincewe have a family talk plan we thought it would be impossible to get them. Well I'll have you know that I am laying in bed typeing this blogg on my new iPhone while marla surfs YouTube on hers. Now I know what most of you are thinking "you haven't blogged In like a century so why now" well to answer your question. Well I just needed to have it at my finger tips. If any one reads this blogg any more please note that the first application I down loaded was a surf report app. Yes I bold true to my basic needs to stay informed. To those that do not have a iphone you should definintly look into getting one it is totaly worth it. This was a early christmas present for the both of use. Now as for Kate she is doing well and is transitioning into sleeping in her own room. She is one of the most beautiful kid I have ever seen. I think she takes after her mom. Who by chance is the most beautiful woman In the world. Well it is about time to sign off so untill next time "Be Good, be green, be safe, and have a happy holidays.
