Sorry it's been so long...

Well i got a little busy the past couple weeks...i meant to put up a post, but never got around to it. It's been a pretty busy couple past weeks. I've had 2 baby showers, 1 wedding shower, and we've been attending our baby classes. It might not sound like a ton, but that pretty much means our weekends have been crammed and at least one night every week, we're not home after work.

We have managed to get a few things on our "before baby" list done around the house tho. We planted our vegetable garden...not sure if i mentioned that in my last post or not. We  have tomatoes, peppers (red, green & hot), cucumbers (although they just died R.I.P. cukes!), lettuce, chives & strawberries. It might be a little much for our garden bed, but hopefully they'll do ok. We're very excited to have fresh veggies just outside of our backdoor in a couple months!

Since all of our baby showers are done now, we can start organizing all of the baby stuff. We started putting stuff away in babys room, it's a total mess right now. We do still need to hit up Target and BabiesRUs to get a few last items we didn't get yet. It's nice to have everything now!

We started organizing the basement (again!) We did it once last summer and again after we moved our office down there, but it doesn't take long to get all junked up again, especially with all of the random baby stuff that's been coming in the door. So once again we're at it. We're purging as much as we can too, if we aren't using it, it's going. Hopefully this coming weekend we can get that project wrapped up and we'll have a clean basement again to watch tv or excersise in. I think nesting is kicking in not only for me, but for Paul too. I guess we figure that starting with a clean organized house will make the hecticness of bringing the baby home a little less hectic (we'll see if that is really the case soon enough!)

Hmm...what else..well like i said earlier, we had two baby shower in the past two weekends. It was a lot, especially for me, since i get tired pretty easy now and anything involving bending over pretty much isn't happening to much anymore. We are very blessed to have great family and friends who got us so much great stuff to prepare for baby, it was so nice to see everyone!

One big thing that happened last friday too was an ultrasound. At my last doctors appointment, she said i didn't seem to grow, so she sent me for an ultrasound to check things out. We were hoping for an ultrasound just to do another gender check! The technician said that everything looked great and the baby was about 5lbs and average size. We also got to see a partial 3d scan of the baby's face and got our gender double-check...we're now relieved that there's still a little girl in there!


I'm hoping the next few weekends will be a little more slow-paced. We do have a few events to go to, but we should have some time to get stuff done around the house too!

ttys everyone!
