10 day's left!!!!! Isn't that exciting!

This and that

I just noticed yesterday was my 50th post!! I don't have any give away's or prize's or anything to celebrate....and I am too pregnant to dance around.....but I am very excited!!!

speaking of being really pregnant, I have 39 days to go! A little over 5 weeks (if he doesn't take his time) I have been so uncomfortable and in so much pain, but it's almost over and I will have a great reward in the end. I can't wait to see what he look's like! I can feel him kicking a little stronger and harder now, and when I lay on my side I can feel him more not sure if I am touching his knee or his booty but it is a cool feeling.


I have so many craft things I want to work on, but I can't get them organized in my head and I don't have enouogh energy or room for it all. Also, the girl's have been over a lot I don't have a moment to myself. With Rambo and Sam following me around everywhere I go, it's hard to get things done. Hopefully I can work on a journal this week and finish making mother's day cards.

Not sure what we will be doing this week, but I hope I will have enough energy to pack some stuff up, work on some crafts and maybe go out on the weekend. I have been stuck in the house for the last 3 week's and I've been so bored. The reason why I've been stuck here is because of the amount of pain and discomfort I am in, I hope Friday or Saturday will be good day's to go antiquing or to do anything really.

Have a good week!

The finished product

This dresser has belonged to Greg for the last 12 + years because the closet in our soon to be house is pretty big, there would have been no use for it.....so I got the idea of re-finishing it and giving it to Ethan! Here are some before, during and after pix.

Before


During pic was taken after we called in quits. Sanding is a real hard job

After the sanding was complete
This is the finished product.


It took us 2 Friday's and 1 Saturday to do it. I even helped with the sanding! Greg did the actual sanding and I sanded the edges of drawers with sand paper. Greg bought me a tool to help my hands from getting burned. Greg staned it and laqured it (the smell was too much for me to take) so I took a nap and this is the finished product. All we need now is nice handles.

Weekend finds

We went to Big Hat day's (a st fair) at Old Town Clovis on Saturday and found a few things. There were over 400 booths and so many things to look at. We weren't able to look at everything because.... well, the baby and my bladder were not getting along.... so we had to cut the day short. But we still had fun, it was the first time either of us had gone to it. Here are a few things we bought.




<------- a tea cup holder for the shabby room. Now I just need to look for some pretty tea cups and saucers (darn) I was thinking of putting this on top of the dresser. Or maybe on the night stand, not really sure yet!












A Fresno State Bulldogs pacifier for Ethan. We hope he will play football there one day! (not too soon to think about that is it?)

An October 2007 Romantic homes mag, picked it up for $2.00


We also bought a water bottle for Rambo and a pretty necklace and earring set for MIL's birthday. I will post pics of that later once I am done with the bookmark I am making her.

We made it!!

We are officially in our third trimester. Only 13 weeks to go! I don't think I will be early so it might be a little longer than 13 weeks. As long as he is healthy I don't care how long he wants to hang in there! So we have 13 weeks to buy more baby clothes, diapers, wipes, move into our house, paint the nursery, register for baby shower, (grow up) win the lotto and take lamaze (sp) classes. Which start in a few weeks! The problems I have been having the last week is extreme heart burn. I have G.E.R.D so natural heart burn plus baby heart burn is not fun! I am also having a hard time breathing, there are certain movements or positions the baby is in that makes me feel short of breath for a few mins. Not sure what is going on, we have an apt next week I will ask the dr then. But for now I will be taking tons of maalox, zantek and reglan and hope the heart burn subsides.

Lazy bones

I forgot to post about this. Greg and I had an apt on Thursday last week while the dr was doing an ultrasound we saw Ethan sound asleep and sucking on his thumb. Greg shook my stomach to move the baby for a better view and when he did that Ethan put his arm down (which I felt him do) and yawned! It was the coolest thing to see. It was also cool to see him put his arm down at the same time that I felt him hit me. It was so unreal. Here is a picture of him being lazy and yawning. You can see his chin, his yawn and his nose!! (look's like he is going to have a strong German nose like his Great Grandpa it will be an honor to see some of Grandpa Lloyd in him)
