Lately

The last couple of weeks have been really busy. Last Saturday we picked out lighting for our house and that was exciting and expensive. The kids had their last regular season basketball games. Bella had her first tournament game on Friday and they won! They play Tuesday night in the championship game and I'm really hoping they beat this team and win the tournament. Tyler played their first tournament game Saturday and they won, but had their second game yesterday and lost so basketball is over for him. Soccer practice started last week as well overlapping a week with basketball. Now our weekly schedule is Bella has soccer practice Monday and Thursday at 6:30 and Tyler has is Tuesday and Thursday at 7:30. Some days I really wish that Tyler could drive!

I went to the doctor last Wednesday and the baby is doing great. I signed the forms so I can have a water birth if I want to. Yesterday was our last Hypnobabies class. I really enjoyed the class and I feel like it will truly help with my labor and delivery.

I now have less than five weeks until my due date. I'm starting to stress a little. I never feel like I'm ready and I still feel like I have so much to do before he gets here. Shouldn't our schedule be less busy as we get closer to having the baby and not more? That never happens for us!

I got Tyler's headboard and his entertainment center painted last week. Now all I have left is his dresser. For some reason I saved the worst for last. Now I also have to find him a new comforter.



Our house is coming along. They are done with the block and they should pour the slab this week in the basement.
 Nice picture of the waterproofing and the port-a-potty!


I had maternity pictures made at 31 weeks by Jennifer Branham. She did a great job and I can't wait to see what she does with the new baby. Here are some of my favorites.

The big 3-0 and my 100th blog post!

It's official, I'm no longer in my 20's. I turned 30 last Wednesday. I thought it would be hard, but I still feel like I did last Tuesday so I think I will be alright. This was one of the best birthdays I've had in a while. We were home so I could celebrate with my family, Jason got me a great gift, and a cookies and cream cake with Breyers ice cream (my favorite). They say you are only as old as you feel and I feel about 23 so that is what I'm going with.

My birthday was a busy day. I had to do some stuff for our house and then I had a doctors appointment. They baby is doing great and they estimated his weight to be 4lbs 12 ozs so he is a little above average. I'm not sure if they will do another ultrasound or not since his growth has been right on track.

                                             Progress on our house.

Tyler and Bella had basketball games on Saturday and then we had to pick out appliances for the new house. We had our fourth Hypnobabies class on Sunday. I can't believe we only have two more left! Yesterday our washer and dryer was delivered here and I was so excited that I washed three loads of clothes!

This is my 100th post and my one year blogaversary was January 28th. I was going to try and do something special for it, but it's been busy around here so I didn't have time to come up with anything. I figured sharing it with my 30th birthday and Valentine's day is pretty good ;)


Happy Valentine's day to everyone!
