Thanksgiving

Well Thanksgiving has came and went way to fast. We spend Thanksgiving with my family in Starkweather. Brock had to get back to work on Friday but I was able to spend some more time with Sydney and Lisa in Grand Forks. We managed to get some shopping done and Sydney got to see Santa Clause! She did pretty good no tears but you could tell she was a little confused as to who this guy was! Now it is back to work until Christmas. We will be staying busy with Christmas decorating and possibly starting on the baby's room. Which can be challenge because we are not sure if it a boy or a girl. We hope to be finding out at our appointment this month but if we don't that is okay too. All we can pray for is healthy baby. I hope everyone is well and they had a great Thanksgivging and ate way to much like we did.

Baby News

Woops...Okay so I realize it has been way way to long since I have updated. Partly because until lately I haven't been able to share our exciting news. Brock and I are expecting a baby in May 2009. We found out the exciting news in late September and have had two doctors appointment to confirm that yes there is a growing baby that will be due on May 23rd. We are both beyond excited and can't wait for the upcoming months.

Olympics!

Brock and I have turned in to Olympic junkies this past week. We get home and five eat supper and then are glued to the TV from 7:00pm to 11:30. We obviously are not too original because our favorite person to watch has been Michael Phelps. I hope he can keep is momentum going but I think a big factor is going to be his grueling schedule. Yesterday alone he had two final races in the morning and two prelims in the afternoon. I hope he makes it through with all the gold metals that people are expecting but if not I hope Americans can understand what the guy has been through mentally and physically in the past week. As one commentator said this morning on the Today Show, "If you or I swam the length of the pool and back we would look like a dead Jelly Fish!." Well times that by at least Twenty times and you will not even be close to what Micheal Phelps does everyday.

Is it Friday yet?

Brock and I are patiently awaiting the weekend like we always do but this weekend is even more exciting because we get to go see our niece Sydney Paige. We haven't seen her since the Fourth of July and we are starting to go through with drawls. She seems to be growing like a weed and every time we see her she has more teeth, more hair, and well sometimes a little more of a personality. Oh yeah and we are also excited to see Lisa and Kori sometimes we forget to mention that!

Married Life

Brock and I have been married for about a month and half now and we are now starting to get back into the real world. We went on a honeymoon to Los Cabos and now are settling into our new house. We found out pretty fast with a new house there is always something to do or something to fix so we are taking it day by day. We also have a new edition to our family. We have a little cockapoo puppy named Emma. We got her about a month ago and potty training seems to be going pretty well with a few minor mistakes. We are new to the blogging site but I will try to update as much as possible. I know I will not be as good as my cousin Bridget but I will try to update at least once a week. So hello from the DesLauriers and we hope to talk to you all soon!
