2 weeks till D-day...

I think back to the moment I first found out I was pregnant, I was only 5 weeks along. The first 20 weeks seemed to fly by and that put us in December and it was time for our ultrasound. We found out we were having a boy, everybody was thrilled! The next couple months actually went faster then I had anticipated...Now we are two weeks away from meeting our little guy, and time seems to have stood still...I am huge, uncomfortable, and can't seem to get the things done that I would like because my feet keep swelling up, so I need to put them up. Today is gorgeous outside, it is supposed to get up to 71 degrees..perfect day for a walk. However, I know how these legs and feet will feel if I decide to do so.


Yesterday was one of those days I would consider perfect. I got to sleep in a little bit, then got around to meet my friends, Brooke and Kala (also very pregnant). We spent time getting pampered, since Kala and I can't reach our feet right now we all had our feet and toes done. Then we went to Applebee's for lunch. A little later on, my little girls and I walked downtown Midland to Pizza Sam's and met Kala and her children, and Brooke, Gene, and two of their girls for ice cream. Needless to say I did NOT even attempt to walk back home. I had Jason come and get me for fear I would not make it back...We ordered pizza and hung out as a family for a while before the girls went to bed.

It was such a nice day, but I was totally wore out by the end of it.



Today is Sunday:

  • It is Sunny and Beautiful, should be outside
  • Jason fell and hurt his back again (we are quite the pair)
  • So many things need done before baby comes and I'm not sure they will be finished...

Busy Weekend

This past weekend was incredibly busy, but I wouldn't have changed it for a thing!

Saturday morning was spent celebrating my adorable little niece's 2nd birthday. It was such a nice time spent with family. Sydney was sooo funny with presents too :) After the birthday party, Jason met up with me to go look at house. While the house is absolutely gorgeous, I'm really not convinced it is the one for our family. So we will keep looking....

My girls stayed with grandma and grandpa this weekend, and Jason and I went on the best date EVER! Since we are having a baby in about 3 weeks, and this will be our 10 year anniversary in December. We decided since this opportunity presented itself we had better take it now and celebrate while we have the chance :) We got up Sunday morning (not too early thought), got dressed up and headed to Detroit...What was in Detroit you may wonder...LES MISERABLES! We stopped in Pontiac on the way down and got a quick burger at Steak n' Shake, and made it to the theater and found our seats. Our seats were incredible!! The show was EXCELLENT!! Jason has wanted to see this show for the better part of half his life...I have listened to the CD with him, but nothing compares to seeing it person! After the show we stopped back in Pontiac and had dinner at Joe's Crab Shack! It was an overall AMAZING day!

When we got home, I had to get my feet up since my legs and feet were swelled up incredibly bad from riding and sitting through the show. So I put myself on temporary bed rest for the night, and just relaxed until bed...

Now it is Monday Morning...
  • I am looking forward to getting my baby girls back home! I miss them...
  • I have a Dr.'s appointment at 2:20 today! Hopefully he will check and see if there is progress (even though I have scheduled c-section) I would like to know if there is anything going on...
  • Today marks a wondrous day where a huge debt we have paying on for over 11 years will be PAID OFF! I am beyond thrilled!
So despite the crazy weather in April, I couldn't be happier!
