Holidays and marriage


So Isabella's first Thanksgiving was great! We stayed over the night before at Jeff's dad's house and spent time with him, his stepmom, brothers, sister & husband and nephews. Jeff went hunting Thanksgiving morning with his dad and brothers. Isabella didn't really want to sleep very well in her port-a-crib, but well enough... We had a very tasty dinner there and then came back to have dinner at Barry's (my mom's boyfried) house with Uncle Charlie and his family, which was also very tasty!
I went back to work at Red Robin as a hostess, only working about one day a week right now... I'll probably start working more soon, but right now its been hard to have a babysitter so that I can work. But then I'll be able to pick up shifts as a server too.
Jeff is planning to join the military, it was going to be the air force, but now we're not sure what it will be, probably the army if Wendy's husband Chad joins too, cause that gives them both someone to work out with, and to join with, which hopefully means we'll all be stationed in the same place, because that would be so much easier with having someone I know wherever we end up.
April and Amy (my sisters) are supposed to be here tomorrow... They were originally going to be here about 2 a.m. but there's some crappy weather going on. I'm really excited for them to get here, cause my neice Jessica and nephews Michael and Christopher and Jordon (great nephew) are along too, and it finally feels like the holiday season because for the first time in a very long time we've had tons of family get togethers. Then while they are here, Jeff and I are going to get married. Its turned into a little bigger of a deal then we had planned originally! But that's alright, we're going to have a lot of family there, His dad and family are going to be there, and his sister and her family and his mom and stepdad. So that will be fun. We're going to the courthouse on the 9th, but we're planning to have an actual fancy ceremony, because well we both want one... And it will happen! haha We're really doing it so fast because of his plans to join the military, and of course because we want to, but this just makes it easier with the miliary. But I'm excited for this next week, it should be a good one for sure!
Isabella is smiling all the time! Its so adorable! She's trying so hard to laugh, she coos when she smiles and it sounds similar to a laugh but she can't quite get the giggle out, but I can't wait for her to, I know its going to be so cute! She's getting so big! I miss her being little, but at the same time I can't wait for everything she's going to learn to do. Pretty much I love being a mom, and she's so fun! Except of course when she wakes up in the middle of the night, which doesn't happen very often anymore, but still, that's never fun for anyone I would guess!
That's all our news for now, I'm sure there will be more after this week is over! :)
