Where have the Knutzen's been!

So I am horrible at posting. I have realized that the format I have all of our pictures on isn't working out so hot. So I will be fixing this in the next few days, please be patient since I am new at this whole blogging thing.

Anyways, here is an update on married life. We are finally adjusted to life without planning a wedding or being in Europe. It took some time, but we seem to be back to normal. We have been looking at our Italy pictures a lot lately (at least I have!). I think that we wish we could have that laid back lifestyle that the Romans seem to have down to a science. That is part of my New Year's Resolution. I am going to simplify my life and by doing this I hope I won't sweat the small stuff. I think this is in preparation for nesting (no, not pregnant yet...still in the "talking" stages)!

Nick and I are now trying to weigh our housing options. Since right now is a horrible time to sell our condo, we are thinking that we may have to hunker down in Belltown a little longer then we had thought. So, in turn, babies will have to wait. I don't think Bella would be too thrilled about sharing any more space. We are cramped enough!

I have officially changed my name! Well, almost. Haven't got the Passport changed yet because I may go up to Canada soon so I don't want to get stuck without it! I am starting to get used to calling myself Katie Knutzen, however, signing my name is a whole other issue. I actually keep signing Katie Ursino, and a lady at a store last week asked to see my ID! I told her I just got married and sometimes forget my name. Luckily she understood. I really need to get used to this!

We are basically just enjoying our first Christmas as a married couple! We have out Christmas tree put up and our Costco Size Nativity Scene (it's huge!). I put up a mistletoe yesterday but Nick hasn't noticed it yet. He just knows that he has been getting lots of kisses so he seems to think that he is doing something right!

We bought our first stockings together, pretty generic but I am hoping to jazz them up a little this week. Bella's stocking is on order, so hopefully we will get that soon!

By the way, you can check out our wedding day pictures at http://www.pictage.com/client/event.do?event=542300. David Streams did an amazing job! Also check out his blog for a cool slide show (I love the last picture the best!).

Ciao for now!
With love,
Katie Knutzen
