Happy Meowloween!

Happy Fall!!

Okay...so these pictures are in the WRONG order...and I'm not in the right mindset to have to go back and switch them! :)

Matt and I went to Schnepf Farm on Sunday and totally had a blast! It is such a great place to go as a family (to-be!)

We got the chance to just hang out and be with each other...it was a nice fall date! We had a scrumptious over-priced dinner that I'm sure my love loved! It was so much fun to kick back, hang out, walk around, eat some junk food and just be together. Thanks baby! You are an amazing hubba hubba! You rock my world!

10 Weeks Left....

WOW! Time has passed so quickly! It is amAZING to think about the fact that we found out we were pregnant at 3-4 weeks. We are now 30+ weeks and revving up for the big, exciting days we have ahead of us. It is CRAZY to think that we will be a mommie and daddy in a few short weeks! This morning I had a moment of "Oh my gosh!!" thinking about how we are not yet ready! There is still so much to do! We don't have a changing table yet....or a dresser....but we might do some shelving. I DON'T KNOW! :(

While I'm in my mini panic about this, Matt is casually watching The Good, The Bad And The Ugly on TV at 7 in the morning!! He's going to flip when the baby gets here! He's going to be so goo-goo ga-ga about our little baby boy. He was so funny at one of our dr. appts. a few months ago. We were going to talk to the dr. about the process of "when I think I'm in labor", etc. He was asking if, when we were on our way to the hospital, if he should call 911 to tell them he would be the speeding silver Toyota Corolla and that he would not pull over, and that they should give him an escort to the hospital, etc. or "how does that work?" type thing. He was so cute. I told him we would probably have some time to get to the hospital before the baby came. :)

My goals this weekend (potentially UNrealistic):

Get all of the boxes in storage that need to go to storage STAT!!!

Go to Michaels or JoAnn Fabrics to look at wall letters (for his name or initials)

Attempt to decide on a 'theme' for his room...(don't worry, I have SOME idea of what I like...and this may require some bribing of Matt)

Not baby related: Make it to church! :)

Give myself a nice little foot soak - I would do the pedicure part but I would get irritated at not being able to sufficiently and comfortably reach my feet

Immediate: Buy new work shoes: I have been coming home with my feet BLACK from the dye in the shoes. I'm wearing socks..but to no avail, I still have black feet every day. I have been SCRUBBING them every night because I don't want it to stay on me, or cause some funky wierdness to the baby.

So, that's it....we'll see what I accomplish. :)

More random thoughts:

For the last couple of weeks, my belly button has started to 'pop'. :)

I just realized that the hot chocolate I just "had to have" for our trip down here is practically unopened. I only had two packs....on the same night. Hmmm. I guess I could have done without. :)

My 'pantry' / bookshelf full of food stuffed in there to fit looks like crap

Our house is a mess (this has GOT to change)

I'm the most blessed girl in the world to be married to the coolest dude of them all! :)

29 WEEKS!!!

Well, we are 29 weeks pregnant today! We didn't think we were this far...based on WA dr..but that's okay. It is that much more thrilling! It is SO exciting to think about meeting our son in just a few short weeks...okay...2 months is more than a few, but I'm sure we will look back and think about how fast the time went.

My belly button is starting to pop every so slightly! :) The baby has gone through some growth spurts lately and I can totally tell when he moves around that that boy has some muscles!

We had our first AZ dr. appt today and that was exciting. We think we are really going to like him...his whole staff is very kind. Our dr. in WA was so awesome, we were a little concerned (well, I was a little concerned) about finding one just as good here in AZ. :)

Still needing to get that boy's room cleaned out and the crib set up....anyone interested in some sanding and painting??? :)

Also, still looking for some fun big belly picture ideas....I should just ask my sis, as I'm sure she has some cool ideas.....

Nesting....

So, I haven't been much for blogging lately. It's not that we haven't had anything to blog about...because we have! I have seriously lacked motivation. I think it is because there is TOO much to do that I get overwhelmed and then just don't do anything. I tend to do that. I hate that.

ANYWAY....my sister is a photographer. Her work is AWESOME and I'm excited because she said she would take some 'big belly' pictures of Matt and I. I want these to be special. They will be. I'm wanting some ideas for the shoot. I know the typical one with the hands making the heart shape around the belly button...but I want more ideas....original, creative....So if you have any big belly ideas....leave them on the comments please!

I'm starting the feel the nesting groove come on. I'm anxious for the baby's room to be set up. We still have boxes filling the room from our move. We don't have much to set up once we get it cleared out..but I want to be ready. I want to be able to just go sit in there and hang out with the babe. We only have a crib right now...I'm sure I'll be much fonder of it once it gets painted. :) We've been so busy I haven't had a moment to think about his room. I've got pretty much no idea what I'm going to do with the room. :( I'd like to get letters for wall hangings...for his initials.... Other than that...I know, it's so sad. I'm a first time mommy and don't have the room put together 3 months out like most people I know. Anyway, the groove is on and we must start getting it set up. :)
