I was going thru some of our junk mail tonight, and noticed that Joel got a REAL credit card in the mail...not the pre-approved fake card that says "Your Name Here." It was the real deal - "Your CCS First National membercard has arrived. This card cannot be used until activated. To activate call: 1-800-###-####."
I couldn't believe it...what if someone else had gotten ahold of this card????
After further investigation of WHO was sending this card, I came to this conclusion: I have no idea. Consumer Credit Services, Inc. offers a First National Membercard. Whatever that means. They have ridiculous membership fees for using their card to purchase merchandise from their unspecified catalog, while offering "great" benefits concerning cash-on-demand and interest rates.
No matter who's trying to con us out of money, I'm glad I saw that it was a REAL card!

Happy? Valentine's Day
So yesterday was Valentine's Day. My parents took Asia for the night, and Joel and I were going to go out to Bennigan's and then rent a couple movies.
We hadn't even gotten to the restaurant, and Joel's eyes started doing something funny...we went in anyway and ordered an appetizer...long story short; he got a migraine! (And remember, we didn't even make it out of my parents driveway for our anniversary when he got a migraine.)
We ate the appetizer and then came home for him to lay down. He woke up a couple hours later, and we ended up going back out. But that was only to borrow a movie from a friend, and get Arby's for me, since I still hadn't had much to eat.
I think we spent more on gas than on dinner...
He did give me a really sweet card, and chocolate covered strawberries though- a nice surprise since I was expecting flowers! I think I could live off of chocolate with this pregnancy.

So it's not the best picture....but we could hardly see because of the flash on our camera...we decided to call it quits before we caused ourselves to have seizures.

What a Day
It was cold out yesterday. I heard on last night's news that it got down to -30, with the windchill. Ouch. It really was aweful. We went out for lunch with some friends after church; the wind blew so hard as we were walking inside, I literally had to stop and regain my balance before I could walk thru the door!
The rest of the day was nice because we spent it inside. It wasn't so nice for me though, because I have a cold. I tried to take a nap, two times, and couldn't fall asleep either time. I slept pretty good last night though; and Joel let me sleep in...so I think that made up for yesterday.
Hopefully I'll feel like myself tomorrow so we can get back to work on the house...it's too hard for Joel to get anything done with a 21-month old chasing after him all the time. (And I've been too beat to watch after her very well.)

Media for Your Viewing Pleasure
Grab a drink, and a bucket of popcorn; here's some pictures and video from the last few days. We still can't get our computer to read our camcorder, so we're stuck taking video with our digital camera for now. You'll want to turn your speakers up a little to be able to hear Asia and myself in the first video.
Eating lunch (a jelly sandwich) on Monday. 
Nothing beats a pregnant woman's dessert.
Midnight Snack
Asia woke up at 3:30am last night because she had leaked thru her diaper (cheap Target brand...*scowl*). Joel was kind enough to get up with her.
She was yelling (happily) about something, and Joel hadn't shut our bedroom door, so she woke me up again. I decided to go the bathroom while I was up, so that I wouldn't have to go in another hour...afterward I stopped in the living room for a minute.
She had so much energy, I had no idea what to think. She was running around the house, yelling, jumping, and in just a great mood. I honestly thought that she thought it was morning. I'm not sure how the rest of her time up went, because I fell back asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow. I'm such a light sleeper though, that I assume she went back to bed okay, otherwise she would've woken me up again while talking to her stuffed animals, and jumping in her bed.
Speaking of which...I hear her up again now....

Super Bowl
As usual, we don't have any pictures. After it was too late we realized the battery on our camera was dead. We still had fun though...
We had some people over from church - Joel's sister and family, some friends of ours, and our Pastor and his family. Total, I think we had 15 people here. And we had good food...can't forget about the food!!
