Stuff

Why am I so tired all the time? I sleep, then feel like I haven't slept for days. Boo. Things are good in O'Toole land. We're busy and need to clean the house, but there's no time for that this week. There's never enough time to clean the house. I blame the dog and the cat.

Bean Update

We've just returned from a doctor's appointment and have three new pictures of Bean to share. We're not 100% sure what exactly we're looking at, but we have managed to figure out where the face is in the picture that says FACE. You have to look sideways (eyes at 9 o'clock, chin at 3 o'clock) and then think about those 3D pictures. You know - the further away you get, the easier it is to see. Steve is much better at seeing what's what than I am. We did not find out the gender because we want a surprise. It's all neutral here in the O'Toole nursery.

Steve has been working more on the garden and has planted some beetroot. Hopefully we will get some more plants out there this weekend. Maybe I'll get him to post something one day.

February

We'll try to post more than once a month, but we're boring, so we never really have anything of interest to discuss. Jenny had an appointment with her doctor on Jan. 20 and everything is progressing well! We're at just over 17 weeks now and have a sonogram appointment on Feb. 17, so expect a picture of the O'Toole/Corder progeny.
Steve has been working in the yard. Our house has a large yard that has been left untouched for the past ten years, so getting it into any kind of shape takes time. It's a fun work in progress though! We're clearing out a bed by the kitchen and have planted sweet onions, red onions, and broccoli. There are plans to plant beetroot, lettuce, squash, radishes, corn, garlic, and various other veggie-type things. Or maybe fruits. Who knows?
We really should take some pictures and get them posted up here so you lovely people aren't stuck looking at a picture of Jenny's insides. Maybe we'll even show you the inside of the house someday! Jack and Tilly are looning around the house like a couple of loonies, but that's par for the course.
Steve passed his Texas driver's test and received his proper Texas license this morning. He's almost a Texan now!!
