So much to do

Wow how time flies. I can't believe it's already October! I went to the doctor last Monday and the nurse said, "Okay, I'll see you back in two weeks." My response - "WHY?" Her response, "Because you are 10 weeks from meeting you baby - we'll see you every two weeks until 36 weeks, then we'll begin to see you every week." My response - NONE, I was in complete shock! Am I really ready for this? Time was creeping along so slowly, now it is FLYING by. There is so much to do:

Paint the baby furniture

Take the child prep and tour class

Take a breastfeeding class

Write a birthing plan

Paint the lettering to go above Neil's crib

Prep the birthing announcements (they are SO CUTE!) and complete the "list"

I guess those are the big things. Everything else I've been told will just fall into place. Does it really work like that? Not that I'm a planner (okay, we all know that I'm FAR from a planner) but, I feel like this is a time in my life when I should be as prepared as possible.


Good news is that we've hired a housekeeper to come once every two weeks and she's GREAT! We also have almost completely finished the repairs on our house - with hired help of course. Rodney and I both decided it was time to pay someone to come in and get everything finished - once and for all! Now we are trying to decide if we are going to stay in this house for another year or two or move again. We don't like to stay put for very long. For those of you that live in the area - come by and see the progress! The house is starting to look amazing!


My great friends Ashleigh and Caroline came to see me back in August and threw me a "ghetto baby shower." It was just the three of us and it was SO CUTE! They are the best friends ever. Here are some pictures...don't you just love the Spiderman wrapping paper?! And I know how hot I look in my bathing suit and maternity jeans - don't be jealous...
























And I have to share a picture of Daisy Mae and Bo - they are just the best dogs in the world!
