Looking forward to: getting our new cell phones next week! can NOT come soon enough!


This has been a very long week.  The weekend couldn't come soon enough because Jerry gets to have a 3 day weekend YAYY!  However, we don't have any specific plans.  Today we went and saw the Avengers in 3D, AWESOME movie by the way! And afterwards we were invited to Jerry's supervisors house.  His wife and  him just had a baby 9 months ago and they offered us a ton of baby gear! We are SO grateful for everything they gave us and couldn't be happier :) ... Only downfall of today is since we were gone all day we ate twice and now I feel like a giant panda LOL.

Some times it's nice to not have any set plans but it sucks not having any family or friends to hang out on these holiday weekends; especially in the summer time!  I love having cook outs! SO, Jerry and I will be cooking out tomorrow just the two of us and possibly taking the dogs to the park in the morning before it gets too hot and after I take my daily morning walk.  Yup! I'm still making myself walk almost every single morning! :D Helps me feel a little better, especially on those "fat" days like today LOL... 

Baby Shower = 2 more weeks!
Baby Singh = 67 DAYS!
9 weeks and 5 days to go!!!!!! :D

Looking forward to: picking up our maternity pictures this week! :) 

This was my first full week off since work ended last week.  Had a hard time keeping myself busy towards the end of the week.  My doctors appointment was Monday and they said that everything looks/sounds great! :) My appointments are now every two weeks so my next one will be next week. I'm still walking the dogs everyday YAY!! :) Some days it takes everything I have to get the energy to do anything because I'm not getting very much sleep lately.  I might start sleeping on the couch because it seems to help support my back better than that snoggle pillow in bed.  We'll see how that works out if I try it.  I'm in the process of trying to finish as many books as I can while I can.  I also want to try and finish crocheting this blanket that I started FOREVER ago! Fingers crossed I can get it all done in the next 2.5 months! :) 

I get to pick up are pictures this Thursday and although we didn't get very many I can't wait to get them and show everyone next week :) .... Looking forward to this next weekend because the hubby is going to have a 3.5 day weekend!! :D yayyy! We took the fur babies to the dog park today instead of taking them for a walk and they LOVED IT!!! I didn't feel like sitting around today even though I was so tired so we did some "window shopping" :).. I can't wait for our baby shower in 2.5 weeks!! It's so hard not go buy things for the baby and her nursery!! I'm so ready to get to work on her nursery!! :) Can't believe she'll be here in just 2 and half months!! :D 

10 weeks and 4 days to go!! <3

This was one of the best weeks ever! Last week my work informed me that Wednesday would be my last day; it was so bitter sweet.  I was excited to finally be done with that long a** commute of 1 hr and 15 mins one way; but also a little sad to be done 3 weeks before I expected to be.  However, it's been really nice to be home with my fur babies and my "nesting" stage has already begun.  I moved our old bedroom furniture into the guest room to make it ready for our new furniture that came on Friday; we absolutely LOVE IT!!! I have been walking the pups every day 2 to 4 miles a day and then working my butt off around the house so during the evening I am SO sore!  Thanks for my wonderful friend Bethany I'm going to start to stretch my legs so it's not so bad :) 

Saturday was my birthday and Jerry made me stay in bed while he brought me up my waffles and coffee :) and he bought me the movie "The Vow"; it was a cute movie.  We did our maternity pictures too!  I was worried it was too early to get them done and had NO idea what to wear; but they came out pretty good! :) We'll have them on May 24th and I'm going to buy cute picture frames to put them in and put them on the sign in table at the baby shower! :D... Then hubby preceded to take me out to dinner and it was so delicious!! He told the waitress it was my birthday and they came out singing with a hot fudge sundae lol .. It was such an amazing day! :) OH! I almost forgot! While I was getting ready he sneaked out to get gas (so he told me) and came home with flowers and ice cream cake!! :) He's the best husband I could ever ask for <3 




And that now leads us to today, Mother's Day, my first one as a "mom to be"! :D... Hubby again out did himself and made today another amazing day! He mad me stay in bed again and he brought me up my cereal lol... Took the pups for a walk then came home and got ready for the day... Then we spent the next four hours running around taking our time and just enjoying the day together :) ... I used the target gift card my wonderful sister gave me to buy a curling wand; I'm not one to spend hours getting ready and doing my hair but I think I'll like this thing.  THEN, the hubby dragged me into the motherhood maternity store finally and I found this great dress to wear to a friends wedding in 3 weeks! Can't wait to wear it and most importantly, I can't wait to see her! And lastly, I dragged him to famous footwear and got a pair of dr. scholls sandals for only 20$ with my birthday coupon! PHEW!! this really has been a busy weekend but it was the BEST weekend I could have ever imagined it to be!! I love you Jerry!! <3 and can't wait to meet our baby girl and see you become the best daddy ever! ;) 

Only 11 weeks and 4 days to go! <3

Sorry this post is so late!! Last week was super busy for us... We had a yard sale on Saturday, which was pretty much a bust, and I had my second glucose screening Saturday morning YUCK!  That stuff is so gross!!  Let's hope I passed because if not then I have to do it again, and that would be no beuno! lol... Then Sunday morning, the nesting kicked in!  Woke up at 6/630 with SO much I wanted to get done that day.  I took the dogs for a 4 mile walk, vacuumed, dusted, cleaned the bathrooms and read up the kitchen; the hubby bathed the dogs, cleaned the bathtubs and finished putting the closet door handles on in the nursery :) ... We even got the chance to go to blockbuster and rent a movie, the grocery store to get a few things AND we finally got our own bedroom set!!!! :D It'll be delivered on Friday, day before my birthday, so awesome birthday gift! :) Not sure what we're doing this weekend for my birthday and mothers day, hubby won't tell me and I'm SO exited to find out what he has planned!  Found out last Friday that this week would be my last week of work and then yesterday they told me Wednesday would be my last day; so after Wednesday I'll have a lot more free time to keep the blog updated and get everything done in the nursery and house :) 


We can't wait to meet our little girl! Only 12 weeks and 2 days to go!!
