Pictureama and such

Well I had another post written but I accidently erased it so sorry. Basically said that everything is great. Aidan is 2 weeks old now and had his doctors apointment. We just layed there wide awake for the whole visit, didn't make a noise. He is doing very good and has gained over a pound over his birth weight and a 1/2 inch in length.



He likes to sleep by the way. You can't tell, but he is wearing Lakers PJ's given to him from his Grandpa in California. Maybe thats why the Jazz lost.



He likes Dad cause I am awesome.!



He likes basketball also.


I think he like Mom A little bit more.


And of course here is Dermit.(Bob wouldn't look at the camera)



All clean after his bath.

Untitled









I couldn't think of a name for this entry mostly becuase it doesn't have a specific thought or anything like that. We were so excited, because Mom and Dad Hough were able to come vist us from last wendsday till yesterday. It was great to get to see them and spend time with them. We have missed them because I think we got used to seeing them more often. Dad said that most babies look kinda funny but Aidan was actually cute. :) I don't think he is biased though ;). We are excited to be able to see everyone in August for the wedding and the baby blessing. we are also very excited because Falene's mom will be visiting us this wednsday and will get to stay for a little over a week. We are really excited to be able to share this experience with her mom. Well we have a few things going on. I am putting in for a promotion at Target, and hopefully that will work out well and soon. Also we are looking into moving to Texas and doing dental hygeine school for both of us. It was really something that I had been open to in the past but with all the changes that have happened pretty much since we have moved to Iowa it is something that I think I would really enjoy as well as Falene. Other than Aidan and my parents coming to vist, there hasn't been much else new. Bob and Dermit are as annoying as ever, but they are good. Thank you are for your love and support. We appreciate all of you. Keep checking back here, I have made a resolve to take more pictures and so should be posting more pictures (mostly of Aidan of course) in the future. Also included is the dogs with the baby at about as close as we let them get :)

It's a Boy!







Well this morning at 9:45 Falene gave birth to our little boy. We havn't figured out what to name him yet so hopefully that will come soon. Sorry to those I promised pictures. I forgot the camera at the hospital so I will add some picture tomarrow when I have a chance to come back. The baby is 20 1/2 inches and weighs 7 pounds 14 ounces. So we are excited. Him and Falene are doing very well. We figured out his name. It is Aidan Christopher Hough

Help us find a name.

We came across a website that allows us to put in some baby names and lets you vote on them. These are names that we have just thrown out there. We aren't sure if we are really behind any of them, but we would appreciate your inpute. Go to this site. http://www.babynames.com/namelist/9595239. We are doing good. It sounds like the Target here is doing some shifting around of leadership so we are not yet sure were that will leave Falene. Her job isn't at risk, she just might have to move to another department. I also just finished my last session of doing practice interviews and hopefully should be doing the real thing next week. We shall see. Falene is doing good. Tired as always though. Bob and Dermit are doing really good to. Bob will turn 3 at the end of this month on Adams birthday and dermit will turn 1at the end of the month as well. He is close enough so we say he has the same birthday as Adam and Bob. We hope all of you are doing well. We love and miss you. We are excited about the prospect of seeing you all in a couple of months.

Love
Chris & Falene

It's a boy?



Well we found out last week that we are probobly going to have a boy. The nurse got a quck shot so she wasn't 100% but she was pretty sure. Falene and I went up to Milwaukee on saturday. We had a great time. We got to hang out with Mike Skrivseth and Jared McDowell as well as visit with the Semrads and Palicks. The only pictures we ended up taking were of the house. They cut down the big trees in the front and added some landscaping to both the front and the back. Falene thought it was really pretty there and wouldn't mind if we live there. We shall see. I have been having pain were my heel and arch meet on my left foot over the last few months. I've been able to bear with it up till this point. I played basketball last night and after a few minutes it just started to hurt really bad. I'm kind of having some trouble walking today. Luckily I have a 3 day weekend so I am going to get some rest and put it on ice so hopefully it will loosen up for me. If I had tyo guess I would guess it is Plantar fasciitis. Falene is doing good. She is tired as always. The baby is constantly kicking her. It was exciting, I got to actually feel the baby kick for the first time a couple of weeks ago. Sorry we havn't posted anything in a while, nothing new has really been happening. We hope everything is going good for all of you. We miss you. Hopefully we can have something else to write about in the future.

School


School started this week. I went to my first class and realized right then that I can't do school and work at the same time. Since I have to work, I will be delaying my school until after the baby is born (only 6 months). Don't worry that I won't finish school, I'm still accepted to Palmer just pushed my date back. This will actually work out better for us in the long run though for a few reasons. This wasn't expected but neither was becoming pregnant after we had been trying for 4 years. We both feel good about this and feel that it is what is best for our family. It also allows us to get excited about being pregnant instead of it being another stresser. Were are doing good. Nothing has changed but school. I already feel a lot less stressed. Falene is still doing pretty good. Hasn't been sick really at all. She just gets really tired and needs to rest after coming home from work and being on her feet all day. Hope everything is going well for everybody. Glad to see that mom had a great time on her cruise.
