Weekend Update

First things first, I keep missing my milestone posts! This is my 202nd post! I can't believe that I've said so much in the past 11 months! I guess it has been a pretty exciting year but still. Anyway, thank you for reading my blog! I hope that you're enjoying it and that you'll keep reading long after Charlotte arrives.

And now on to our weekend....

As I'm sure you remember we went to dinner with our good friends Kelly and Tripp and Jenni and Travis on Friday. We had a lot of fun! It was a little difficult to choose the kinds of cheese and sauce and chocolate that we wanted but the girls managed. The guys gracefully backed down and let the ladies make the selections which was greatly appreciated! :) Our favorite course was, of course, the chocolate but it was a really fun dinner. We were glad that we got to spend it with such good friends!

On Saturday, Jason and I apparently forgot that I was 35 weeks pregnant and worked really hard and for a really long time in the garage. Ok, ok, Jason worked really hard and I was outside supervising. But, I tell you, just sitting outside in the heat is a lot of work when you're this pregnant! Anyway, cleaning out the garage had been on the to do list approximately two years since we moved in to our house. Charlotte finally became the catalyst for us to get it done. I so wish that we had taken before pictures so that you could see the transformation but you'll just have to take my word for it. We spent two hours at Lowe's getting a metal shelf system and pegboard. Everything was taken out and the whole place was swept. Now we have so much room in the garage! It's fantastic!

But, by Saturday night, we were exhausted. It was still taking it's toll on me today and I had to crash and take a nap this afternoon. But Jason got right back out there and mowed the back yard. And planted this beautiful Lollipop Gerber Daisy plant in the planter in the back. They are these huge daisies that I just love! I hope that it blooms all summer!

I went to the grocery store this afternoon and am about to try my hand at Creamy Shrimp with Corn and Bacon. If it's good it will be Recipe Wednesday this week. Let's keep our fingers crossed because Charlotte is hungry! :)

We're looking forward to our appointment on Wednesday to see if I've started progressing at all. If so I guess we need to get our car seat installed and start packing our bags. It's crazy how time has flown to get us to this point! Have a great week!
