Melitch got hitched

Jason and I had the honor of attended the wedding of our friends Mitch and Melissa on September 12th. They had a beautiful backyard wedding, which was temporarily moved indoor because of the rain. The low-key evening backyard wedding is my new favorite kind of wedding, and this one was gorgeous. Best of all- the wedding was in San Antonio- no airplane ride this time! Jason acted as head-photographer for the evening, as he continues to practice and learn our new fancy camera.

Congratulations Mitch and Melissa!

A Seats Baby

This is the biggest-ever announcement of Seatsleaf- Jason and I are having a baby! We got to see this little person for the first time last Monday. The baby looks pretty cute- We could see him/ her much better on the screen at the doctor's office, the picture doesn't do it justice. Our baby is due at the beginning of April.

You may have noticed Seatsleaf has really gone down the drain lately. Well, that's because I have had a bad case of baby-related nausea, which sucks every ounce of motivation I have to do anything. I have been miserable for a month now.

Luckily the past week has gotten a little better, and instead of being nauseous all day, I'm nauseous in the afternoon and evening, and the mornings feel pretty good. Eating has become an extremely frustrating experience, as I don't feel like eating anything, and I've pretty much stopped making dinners for Jason. I don't have an inkling of ideation about would I should make for food, and what I should do with myself. In addition to nausea, I have this disgusting chemical taste in my mouth which makes most things taste foul. Plus, lots of indigestion and heartburn. I have super-smell and foul smells send me into gagging fits. I can't brush my teeth without gagging myself. So, I can honestly say that pregnancy has been the worst experience of my life this far, and I really think that if all women experienced this, human population would decrease drastically with each generation and we'd eventually become extinct, because I cannot fathom anyone willing doing it again and again.

On a lighter note- today is Jason's and my 5 year anniversary. Happy anniversary hubby!

Wedding in Philadelphia

Jason and I returned from our weekend trip to Philadelphia over the past weekend. Our year of weddings marches on, this was wedding #3- Go and Mary. Go is a friend from college. He swam on the SLU swim team with me, and was roommates with Jason (and Angel) post-college years. Go moved out to San Diego after he couldn't stand anymore of living with Jason, and that's where he met Mary. Jason and I went out to visit them summer of 2005 (or was it 2006?). This video clip shoes a little dance routine that the wedding party did. You hear me make reference to Go breaking his front tooth at the 2004 wedding of Maria and Steve, during a break-dancing back flip. Needless to say, this was a very fun wedding. They hired the most awesome Philly band- Jellyroll. The day after the wedding we walked around Philly, and visited the bell, and ate a Cheese steak.

The video would not upload, look for it on dropshots.

Texas is Hot

So, we've really gotten to the hottest point of the year here in San Antonio. We are told that it is not normally this hot, and that this year broke the 1998 record of days over 100 degrees. Also, there has not been much rain at all. Consequently, all the grass and plants are dying. One thing that took Jason and I by surprise is that when we turn on the faucets in our house, on cold, we get warm water. Back in St.Louis, I used to say I had a February Funk, due to it being the end of winter and being tired of being cooped up in the house all the time. I'm starting to feel that way about August here in Texas, but due to the heat. So, not much to say, other than "it's hot."
