So they weren't able to head off to Spokane this afternoon. When the timing belt went, it managed to take out the engine, and did a lot of damage. So A LOT more work is going to be needed. So the car will stay in Butte until sometime next week, and Blair and Jaylee are going to hop on a bus tomorrow night and head for Spokane. So they will now be gone even longer than planned. I am sooooooooo very NOT happy. But it was not anybody's fault, just very bad timing. So thanks to Blair's family they will get him and Jaylee back home next week! Isn't family great?
I am just going to be very very lonely for the next week! I have never been away from Jaylee for this long it is so strange! This apartment is going to be freakishly organized and cleaned. I guess that will make it easier for moving right? When we eventually someday move.
Sigh.....

Feeling Lonely
So Blair and Jaylee headed to Spokane today. They made it about as far as the Butte, I-90 junction then the car died. Luckily there were some very nice friends in Butte that came to their rescue. The car was towed to a mechanic, and they were told the timing belt had gone. So it will be fixed and they will be on their way once again hopefully by 2p.m. tomorrow afternoon. PHEW!!
I opted to stay home simply because, I get very carsick with this pregnancy and I don't think I could endure an 8 hr car ride. I was planning to keep Jaylee with me, but Blair really wanted to take her home to go see Grammy and Paca, and all other family there. So I let him. And let me tell you it was very very hard!! Yes yes, you all are saying "enjoy your free time" but lets remember I am pregnant and horribly emotional. So now I am crying like crazy because I don't have my family here.
They headed home to get all our baby stuff which we have stored in Spokane. So we kind of need a carseat and all that other stuff for a new baby! I just hope it is a very QUICK trip and they will be home soon.
Blair had an interview last Thursday with a company call "BETTIS" it is located in Idaho Falls. He was very excited, and now we are just waiting to see if we get a "yes" or "no" answer. We are good at waiting. I am anxiously waiting for this baby to come! With Jaylee I was a little bit more patient, but not with this baby. It will be fun to see if we have a boy or a girl!! Jaylee is sooooooo VERY EXCITED!! She feels that once becoming a "big sister" she is going to be able to do lots of more grown up stuff...apparently being a big sister entitles her to be "almost" ready to drive the car "just in case" I need her to. She makes me laugh!! She will be a wonderful big sister, that I can already tell.
Anyways I had to do something because I am going CRAZY without anyone here. Chances are this house will be spotless by the time they come back, simply because I cannot sit still.

More Pics...
Well these didn't quite upload the right way. But here is Christmas morning. Jaylee got daddy a cap gun!! And she has lots of fun with it! And she also got an umbrella...she has wanted one for so long,and she loves it, even love she opens and shuts it every 5 seconds. Which is the reason why she had to have it taken away for a bit. For New Years Eve we did a gingerbread house that Blairs mom had sent down for us to do as a family. Jaylee had a blast and loved eating the candy of course. She made it all the way to Midnight and to say "Happy New Years" Then she immediately passed out..no joke, just layed down and fell asleep as soon as the words were out! Very cute! We had a very fun Holiday. It was very nice to spend it as just the three of us. Our first time being together for Christmas and not visiting our families.
Still our Christmas Eve through New Years Eve!!
I can't get the videos uploaded so I will Just do our pictures. We made cookies for Santa and then warmed up on hot chocolate after all our sledding! We had such a fun day!!!
Our Christmas Eve, through New Years Eve
So on Christmas Eve day we decided to head out and do some sledding! Here are a few pics from us sledding. Jaylee had a blast, and I also have some videos to put up too!!
So how cute is she all wrapped up in her snow stuff. Not to mention it is just funny to watch her try and walk! She is a little stiff!
She is a little bleached out in this one, but still happy!
Daddy and Jaylee sledding. More of a roller coaster ride I suppose!
