Thanksgiving & Smells

Thursday was Thanksgiving and we called Grandma Westfall to tell her our news while everyone was over at her house for dinner.  We called before Scott left for work.  She was surprised and happy for us.

Scott's cousin's wife, Betsy, said there is a chain within the family which calls for another girl next.  She had a boy, Scott's cousin had a girl, we had Carter, Scott's sister had a girl, and then Betsy had another boy.  Just sayin'!

Last Saturday, we received a package from mom and dad with all kinds of things to make for Thanksgiving;  canned cranberry sauce, green beans & cream of mushroom soup, Stove Top stuffing, turkey paper plates/napkins/table cloth, jello, canned fruit, and pudding among many other things.  It was a great surprise.  Saturday we went to the house of a Japanese man Scott works with and we brought the stuffing and cranberry sauce.  They were both big hits and I ended up eating about 75% of the cranberry sauce.  :)  It was sooooo good!

This last week was hard for me because my morning sickness was in full swing and because our apartment is so tiny, smells seem to linger around for awhile.  Carter didn't eat much of anything healthy last week because I couldn't stand the smells to cook anything.  Scott made his own meals as well (sorry baby!).  The sink drain needed to be emptied and cleaned out, so I gave it a whirl, but OMG, once I went to grab for it just the thought of what I would see made me gag.  So, I had Scott get it cleaned out instead.  :-/

Hopefully the m/s and the problems with smells goes away quickly.
