TODAY: June 22, 2009

 

did you have these mcdonald's plates when you were little?  i LOVE using these for max's lunch plate....i had one original, and then i searched ebay to find the rest.

{got the idea for these questions/answers directly from www.aliedwards.typepad.com  one of my favorite blogs to read...i just cut and pasted her prompts and filled in the info}

Outside my window...the dog has shred two more of her toys.  toy stuffing is all over the deck.  and our hydrangeas are gorgeous!!!!

I am thinking...about starting to clear out the nursery of all the junk that is in there at the moment.  I'm also thinking about changing my email address.....been getting a TON of spam/junk email in my cox email inbox.

I am thankful for...my family.  so much fun to be around all of them.

From the kitchen...hot dogs and beans for lunch with raw veggies and ranch. {as a side note....max now likes to dip his peanut butter and jelly sandwich in ranch dressing....gross!}.  Dinner was good ol spaghetti and meat sauce and bread.

I am wearing...my first day in full-fledged maternity clothes.  so much more comfortable in these....not sure why i didn't just do this two weeks ago when i started getting uncomfortable.  oh, and of course i'm wearing flip flops.

I am creating...nothing at the moment (except peanut willette inside of me.....he or she is doing a ton of growing each week).

I am going...to email my client list this week announcing my pregnancy and offering up options for photos during my maternity leave.  I'm also planning on switching up the format for this blog while i'm on "leave" to include more tips/tutorials, links to local business, and links to children's related items (trying to keep most of the links local).

I am reading...The Bolyn Inheritance and The Happiest Baby on the Block

I am hoping...to find out what the baby is in five short days.

I am hearing...max play hot wheels next to me and my iMix that i'm working on (heavily laden with norah jones)

Around the house...i'm waiting for the ac dude to get here to service our AC units (just a maintenance visit), downstairs looks good, litter box is clean, need to put away two loads of folded laundry, toys are ALL over max's room and the room that will be the nursery.  max has been super busy playing.  lots of pool gear laying around various rooms....swimsuits, towels, etc....and lots of little boy underpants all over our second floor.  not sure what that is all about....kinda cute!

One of my favorite things...thunderstorms on a summer afternoon.

A few plans for the rest of the week...baby shower for neighbor, meeting up at max's school (volunteer stuff), swim pups practice for max, hopefully get to see my cousin Tiffany and her children (which i have NEVER met...sadly), and i'm planning on trying to be nice (i have been especially short tempered during this pregnancy....sometimes just downright mean....i am struggling with this, and i hope to work on it).  i'm also going to get willette to take a belly shot of me this week....can't believe i haven't done this yet and i'm nearly 15 weeks preggers.

 

you can kinda see my belly getting in the way of this photo.....too funny.  i was trying to move so that it wasn't in the way, but that just got too hard.

Congratulations on your impending arrival! It's always exciting to finally be in maternity clothes. It makes it seem so much more "real". I wish you all the best, though I will miss your regular photo updates when you go on maternity leave!

Congrats Congrats! Having two kiddos around is awsome! I love watching mine interact - A lot of "Hey that's mine!" but it's still all great!
