Miscellaneous Monday

The office is eerily quiet today and I'm quite positive 4 o'clock will get here VERY slowly. We got a little layer of snow last night, just enough for the schools to close but for me to still have to come in. On the bright side, there was zero traffic on my way here and that just proves my point that if there were no other cars on the road, I'd be on time every morning.

Speaking of mornings, it's getting tougher and tougher to get out of bed, not only physically but mentally. I'm not sleeping well anymore and getting quite uncomfortable in these last few days (hopefully!) of pregnancy. Every pain I feel makes me panic and every time I go to the bathroom, I'm looking for signs of my water breaking. One of these days, it's gonna happen and I'm trying to prepare myself for the surprise of my life the best that I can. The best way to explain how I feel is if someone would tell you that Christmas day will be coming sometime in the next two weeks but they're not going to tell you until the DAY OF. So, every day you wake up thinking "is today the day?" and then a cosmic voice laughs and says "nope!" and you continue about your business.

Enough pregnancy business, let's recap the weekend shall we?

Friday night, one of my best friends in the entire world got married and I have to say congratulations to her one more time. I wasn't able to make it to Vegas to see her recite her vows but I they sent me texts all throughout the day and they really made me feel like I was there.


Michelle makes a gorgeous bride and I know that her and Steven, her new husband, will have an amazing life together. I can't wait for her to get home so I can dish all the details with her and see more pictures!

Saturday afternoon, Kevin and I spent the day in town running errands and preparing for my Grandmother's 75th birthday party. Even though we had a pretty busy day, Kevin was able to get some baby practice since we got to babysit my sweet niece while my sister was at work.


I'm not sure I would really call babysitting Quorra practice though, she's too good. She coos and giggles and sleeps, that's about it. Lord, please let my baby be this good! (Wait, there's that cosmic laugh again...)

Saturday night, we cut the rug at the retirement community where my grandmother lives and celebrated her birthday with some family that came in from out of town. It's always nice seeing my aunt and uncle that don't live near here, it's too bad they can't stay longer!

Yesterday was spent being lazy in the morning and then cleaning all afternoon. No, not nesting, just my usual weekend housework. Dusting, dishes and vacuuming were all done - I'm not about to bleach my driveway anytime soon. (A coworker told me she did that when she was pregnant. Ha.)

What did you get into this weekend? Anything fun?! Happy Monday!

We were off today anyway because of the holiday, but I wonder if we would have had off. It's pretty anyway!

I can't believe you're even blogging this week. If it were me, I'd just want to lay in bed and soak up these glorious, exciting last minute moments. You are much more motivated than me, I guess. Haha. I've been thinking about you TONS and am so excited for you and your hubs. Sending loads of love from CO!
