Back in the swing of things

Hey everybody! School started up again, and everything is going good. This is by far the most challenging quarter for me. Lots of homework to keep me on my toes but nothing stressful. I try and make sure I only do homework after Benny is asleep so that it doesn't take away time from him, because people are always saying kids grow up too fast and then you regret not spending more time with them. I'm determined not to regret anything like that. I'm also realizing more and more how little time left I have with just him. One of my favorite things to do is take naps with Benny and I know I won't be able to do that anymore with him once the new baby comes. Today we got to sleep a whole 2 1/2 hours together. Those are my kind of naps, really long. I'll miss them. One thing about pregnancy, is its hard to tell what weight is gained because I'm pregnant and what weight is gained because I'm not really exercising right now or being too careful with foods. Do my legs feel bigger because of baby or because I haven't ran in awhile? oh well, I'll find out soon enough.
Nathan has been working a lot on our garden but it is still a pretty slow process. We are so excited about it though. If we somehow won a lot of money, we could easily blow a bunch of it on cool garden accessories. Still haven't got to the planting part yet.
Also, on Friday, Nathan and I, and Cody and Jillian got to go on a fun day trip to Levenworth together without the chillins, before they leave for Utah. The weather was perfect and it was great fun. We got to look at all the cool stuff there. I almost regretted not buying these really cool puzzle boxes they sell there but I know I'll go back again someday. Then we ate out on the way home and the food was super good because I was so hungry. Good times.
