Happy Thanksgiving!

Though we're not celebrating until tomorrow I wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you have a wonderful day remembering all of the things God has done for you and enjoying your time with your family.
As we are separated from most of our family by many, many miles we have to cherish each moment spent with them. To all of you we won't see this holiday please know that you're missed and that we love you! Hopefully we'll see each of you soon!

Still here!

We went to visit a friend in the hospital who just had her baby tonight. On our way to her room we were asked by 2 different nurses if I needed assistance meaning was I in labor. Hmmm... Then at Walmart I was waiting in line and this little girl standing next to me asked her mom if I had a baby in my tummy. Her mom just said, "Yes, she does" and went on with her waiting. I was surprised that there was no hesitation or anything like that to her response. I guess I do look ready to burst at any moment. I think we're finally close to being ready for this baby to actually make it's appearance. I decided after having serious contractions last night that I needed to buy those last minute things and finally be ready. I'm sure that just means that it will be another 2-3 weeks though. HA!
Oh, and I did get the house clean and back to normal. Thank goodness. It was a lot of scrubbing and laundry, but it was so worth it! Now if we can just maintain it I will be proud!

Too much!

The dishes are piled up, the laundry is heaping, the bathroom is in disarray and the dog is seriously shedding like crazy. My life is FULL right now. I don't know how this happened, but it did! Perhaps it's because I'm carrying around a 15 lb basketball on my stomach that insists on moving every other second of the day which leaves me with no energy and a sore back? I don't know, but I can't take it anymore. Luckily our bathroom just got finished being tiled and we're in the process of being able to use it again. That means no more men walking through the house all day long and banging the whole time they're here. I'll post pics of the process soon. Or perhaps it's because I want to spend every extra minute of the day outside with my little guy while it's still in the 70's during the day because I know that snow is right around the corner (literally. They're calling for it on Monday.). Whatever the reason tomorrow is the day to start getting this house back together. No more excuses! No more laziness! It will get done. And no, this isn't nesting. It's the need for cleanliness! HA!
