The Carnahan Clan

I realized I never introduced my family! All 5 children! We have 2 dogs and three cats - Riley and Mia and then Ash, Bitty and Tanner! They keep us well entertained! Riley and Mia are great Bulldog fans! Go Dawgs!

Next we have Ash and Tanner - Tanner loves to snuggle with the other animals - not so much me and Lance.

Then Bitty - she was a gift to my nephews Thomas and Hilton, of course I did want to give her to them but I did and come to find out Hilton was allergic so we got to keep her!!! She is so sweet but not very social. She and Ash love to sleep on the refrigerator in one of my casserole dishes with Lance's old hats in it - don't worry I never use that dish!

Well that is our family for now - or our small farm! I love my 4 legged babies!!

Slightly Overwhelming!

Who knew picking a crib out was so difficult?! I will find one I really like but then I don't like the furniture that goes with it so then I find the furniture I like and then don't like the crib. Way to much to worry with and just wish I could pick out a crib!

Things have been going great! Work is still a little boring due to the fact that my parents are still out of town - they will return soon and the mass chaos will resume!

We went to church yesterday and it felt really good although I really find it hard to tolerate the woman that assists. Something about her we just don't care for. Things had started too level themeselves out right before I found out I was pregnant and then since we have not been back since November things have been a little difficult. Not talking about the pregnancy or my marriage or anything like that. Just my perspectives and inner joy felt complete for a little bit.

Now with a baby on the way you tend to worry about so much. Will we be good parents? Are we ready for this, here it comes? Just little questions! Nothing big!

We are very excited but I think everything will become more real once we know the sex, hear the heartbeat and such. Not much longer until those things!

Well I hope everyone has a great week!

Holiday's are over for us!

It is official as of yesterday! The Holiday's are over and back to work we go! Lance and I thoroughly enjoyed our 2 week vacation but it was time to go to work for us.

We did all the projecting that we could for now, visited everyone, caught up on some well needed sleep and hmm . . . that is all!

One day Steven (Lance's brother) came and helped lay flooring in "Peanuts" room and the next day his dad and Steven came back and did our bedroom flooring - what a feeling to be rid of carpet! Not that I don't like carpet but the house had cheap, crappily installed carpet. Also having 5 animals can do some serious damage to carpet.

We were proud participants at the INDY BOWL!!! GO DAWGS! It was kind of fun considering some bumps in the road. Who knew all the small things that were true testiments of your friendship with others and how amazingly ungrateful people are for the things that you do for them! Well I am not going to elaborate because I could go on and on! Just amazing how you think you have a group of great friends and WHAM they shock the hell out of you . . . okay really!

New Years Eve we went to Hollie and Ryan's and I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed myself! It was low key, with great snacks and fun times! The next day I slept and so on -

So fast forward to today - first day back at work and it is actually nice to be here too! Would be better if my parents were here - just so quite! Guess I can get more done this way - well I will try and download some photographs from the Holiday's tomorrow - till then-
