Some Stuff

Here are a couple of pictures of my belly. I'm five and half months along now. Jason and me think I look more pregnant in person. I don't know why it doesn't look as big in pictures. It also seems it pokes out more depending on the time of day. I don't know if this is just because I'm bloated or if the baby is in a different position. I'm no expert, I just assume a lot. I've also been feeling the baby a lot this past week. I thought at first it was just gas, but I'm pretty sure now it's the baby moving. It's pretty exciting.

Also, our Plecto died. Jason had him for about three and a half years. He was a big guy. If you remember his name was Dallas' boyfriend. That was because he liked me. We started to notice that he was getting holes in his fins, but didn't really do anything about it. Then he developed an open sore on the top of his head, that looked pretty bad. Jason got some medicine for him, but he was too sick I guess. He will be missed. We have a new Plecto now and his name is Big Papi. That's a player for the Red Sox for those of you that don't know that. We have two other fish in the tank that are also named after Red Sox players, so we thought we would stick with the theme. He seems to be a good little cleaner.

And...We are done painting!! I am so excited about that. I still have to go through and get paint off hinges and door knobs, but that won't be too bad. It was such a huge project for us. I think it took us about two and half months(if you ask Jason he says forever). We really really hate to paint, I guess. I didn't have much experience with it before, but I know now I never want to do it again. It wouldn't have been so bad if we painted the ceiling and walls the same color. I haven't really been enjoying the way it looks because I hated doing it so bad, but the past couple of days I've actually looked at it and I think I like the way it looks. We wish we would have gone a little lighter on the moulding and doors, but we're not changing it, so it will have to do. Maybe will put some pictures on soon.

Cute belly! It is exciting when you feel the baby moving! I hate painting too... I can't wait to see pictures of all your torturous work!

I love your little belly, Dallas! I'm glad you guys finally got done painting. I was sick of hearing complaining about it. (Just kidding, you didn't really complain a lot to me)
