Another year has flown by & another birthday has come & gone..
it's hard to believe that next year we'll have a 7 month old to help us celebrate!
I am so blessed to have this lil' miracle growing inside me & becoming more eager with each day to meet our lil' angel :) Two weeks from today we will find out if the nursery will be PINK or blue...my "gut" feeling is PINK..as most of you already know :) ha!
...sorry, got a lil' sidetracked..back to the birthday happenin's..
Friday evening we celebrated with our parents at Heath's steakhouse. The food was delicious (as always)! We had a great time & left with very full bellies! After a quick trip to Wal-mart, we headed home. As we were unpacking groceries Matt casually hands me this box & tells me to see if there's anything in it. I honestly thought nothing of it & figured he wanted to trash it if there were no important papers in it. So, I jerked it open to find a brand new camera!! I was very surprised!! If he had wrapped it, I would have known immediately what it was from the size of the box, but I wasn't even expecting a gift until the next day...he got me good!! & I love this new camera!! It will get alot of use :)
Saturday morning rolled around & Matt & I both had to be up @ 5:00. He had to go to work & I had my first
Sat. morning BSF class of the year. I left feeling very overwhelmed, but I was told that's normal...(still doesn't change the fact that feeling overwhelmed & being pregnant do NOT mix well with me.) Once I had a breakdown & a nap I felt better..thanks Mama & Matt for listenin' :)
Saturday evening we had friends come over to hang out & go to the Jason Aldean concert! Some were friends we don't get to see very often, so it was great to catch up & hear all about what was new with everyone :) Once our limo, aka oversized pickup truck, arrived to take us to the concert, we were off! & 2.5 hours later, we were there! At this point, I was pretty much ready to call it a night...& so was my poor ol' bladder! Let me just say, I have been to MANY concerts in my 32 years...but never have I seen such a crowd! It was crazy!! (another lesson learned...being "with child" & in this kinda crowd also do NOT mix well for me!)
Two very important lessons learned this weekend....at least I'm learning them now rather than later!
So...we finally made it back home from garner, I went straight to bed & Sunday was much better!! I did a lil' shopping, did alot of relaxing, watched some football (not a good weekend for the Pack or the Panthers), & looked at some nursery ideas online...can't wait to start that project!!
Here's a few pics from our weekend..

~17 weeks~
Headed out!
the beginning of a long journey..
Jason Aldean is somewhere up there :)
It's lookin' like yet another busy week, so we'll just take it one day at a time & learn how to sometimes say, "no."
That's my new motto! ha!
Hope everyone has a great week! The forecast is showing a dramatic cool down towards the end of the week...this brings a great big smile to my face :))
Glad you had a good birthday but glad that weekend is over for you since some of it was rather stressful! Stress is not good for you or the baby! Glad you got a camera!!!!!!! Practice using it a lot before the baby gets here so you will be really quick with it! Ha!
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome for listening to you after BSF Saturday morning and I hope this Saturday is much better! Remember that you are doing it for the Lord and maybe that will make it easier. You are getting more jewels for that beautiful crown in Heaven!!! Love you!
