Putting this up before I forget!:

It'd be okay if you had forgotten! We'd have muddled through somehow... Although it is cold enough today to have brain-freeze!!

Okay, so was it just me or was that the asteroid I saw this morning falling over the mountains looking west in Anchorage???

I thought it was a jet with contrails after it but the contrails did not linger............. then I read this......... http://www.livescience.com/space/090...2009-dd45.html

The timing is about right but still............ I'm not sure. It would be TOO cool to have seen that for real but how often does one get to witness something like that??? So that is why I am doubtful.

Don't know. Where we are, I don't see much happening in the sky unless it is about overhead. Too many trees around my house. Was excited to get so much snow this weekend. I was hoping for one last big snowfall before I left. Now, hopefully, we won't get anymore! That's the problem with hoping for one last snowfall up here -- you might get more!

Cool! Another Alaska baby... woohoo!

Well, we have at least 3 feet of snow on the level now... all I can say is IT'S ABOUT DAMNED TIME! Yippee!

I already want to give the baby some kind of Alaskan-feeling name...I love Aurora for a girl or Denali for a boy, but I'm not sure if I can talk DH into either one. I only got the test two days ago anyway, so it's not like we're in a hurry, I don't even have a sense of the sex of this one yet (my mama instinct has always been right before) and we'll almost certainly get an ultrasound anyway, so no sense duking it out over two names when we're only going to need to pick one anyway, right?!

Congrats Momma! :That is awesome! : I really like the name Denali. Last night I told my husband it was time to whip out the Alaska Gazette to look up names for us! How exciting!
