Last night after a wonderful feast at Grandma and Grandpa Harris' house we drove past several stores in a strip mall on our way home. We scoffed as we noticed that there were shopping die-hards camping in tents in the parking lot outside of Best Buy and other stores. We swore up and down that we would NOT be going out in the frenzy of Black Friday. Heh, heh. Well, we did end up shopping today, though at 5:30pm most of the frenzy had died down. We happened to go out to get ice cream and drove past Office Max and remembered that we have been needing to get a more comfortable chair for our computer desk. For the last year and a half we have used a kitchen chair and it gets really uncomfortable after a while. Mitchell usually goes back up on campus to write code or get homework done because our chair is so uncomfortable. It seems like a waste to have gotten such a good computer if he can't use it. We walked out of the store with a great chair! It was a great price too! Hooray for Black Friday and hooray for new found comfort!
This is the chair before...ugh.
...and after...ahhh.
Speaking of comfort...I am feeling so good lately! No more of the "morning" (more like all day) sickness! And I decided to make the switch over to maternity pants and I have once again found the meaning of comfort! Sometimes I wonder why people wait to get into the maternity pants!?! Amazing! Many people have requested a baby bump picture. I will finally post one now that the tummy looks kind of round and not just chubby. Sometimes I laugh when I look down and see a round belly where my flat tummy used to be. I will say I have definitely felt life in there although it is hard to differentiate between normal gastric movements and baby movements. I suspect that soon I will feel a strong kick and know for sure that Timmy is making himself known. :)
Plans for later tonight: set up and decorate the Christmas tree! Read the children's Christmas books that we have acquired over the last year and a half! Oh...and there will probably be some hot chocolate involved too!

Yay, cute baby bump!
Awww... there IS a baby in there!! So cute!! I can't wait to see how big SHE is in March when I get to see you! (Yes, Mitchell, my vote is for a she... not because I have any intuition regarding the gender of your child, but because that's what I want it to be... unless my baby is a boy, in which case it can be a boy so they can be best friends.....)
Way to go on getting a great chair. I sort of wish I had gone shopping yesterday, but oh well. Time to get our tree up!
