So much fun!

Well, we are having so much fun with my mom here! She is really helping out so much. It's weird sitting back while she cooks and cleans, but she insists! I do help a little...a girl gets bored you know. I really should be getting lots of scrapping done, but just haven't had the "oomph" to do it! Hard to believe, I know! I've been doing lots of online shopping so I can't say I don't have enough new goodies to play with, because boy I do! Maybe tomorrow. That's my goal. (Don't we all look alike in this photo? Well, except for my ENORMOUS prego face!)

We got out today and got a few more things for Braden. Diapers are pretty important to have ready :) But after walking through Wal-Mart my legs and feet hurt SO bad! I came home, put on my jammies, laid on the couch, and took a nap. AHH! What a nice feeling. I go in for my check up on Monday and plan on BEGGING the doctor to let me have this little guy early! I'm so miserable and it's getting so hard to move around...heck it's getting hard to breathe, he really should induce me and make me happy! right!

Hailee is really excited. She goes through Braden's clothes and shows us what she likes, changes dieapers on her stuffed toys (she's actually pretty good at it!), and tells us (mom, me and Darren) how much fun it will be with a baby in the house..."even if he just sleeps and poops"! lol I just hope all the sleeping doesn't make her bored and then disappointed!

Well, this big lady has had it and am off to bed! Happy weekend to all!

if you're looking for something fun to do check out the online scrap party at www.scrapbookplayground.com. It's going on tonight and tomorrow! Fun challenges already posted and more games to come tomorrow!!!

Time to get serious...

...about this whole take it easy thing! Mom is here, and helping a ton, but it's hard to just sit back and let her do everything. Plus, I'm used to going out and doing things when she visits, and since she hasn't even been here a week, it still feels like one of her fun trips here. But, we went to walmart this morning and now my ankles, feet, and toes are so swollen! They look horrible and feel horrible! But, only a little over 5 weeks left until my due date...3 if I'm lucky :)

I haven't taken a TON of pictures since we're not doing a whole lot, but I do have a few and hope to get a really good one of my mom and Hailee to post on here!

3 more days!!!!!!

And my mom will be here!!! I'm so excited. I know this won't be a normal "fun" visit, but at least she'll be here and that's what matters! There is a movie theater close by so we may take Hailee to see Doogal one day...that's still resting so I'm allowed!

I finally picked up a package of diapers and wipes. Hard to believe I'm due in less than 7 weeks and so not ready! Hailee was born in January and her room was done in November, complete with all the things we needed! Granted I had 2 showers by then so all the things we had were given to us, but still, we were much more prepared! A friend of a friend gave us some clothes and a blanket. The clothes are REALLY small (the baby was a preemie) so won't last long, but it's a start. And my mom is bringing some clothes, too. I did finally order, from Old Navy, an outfit to bring Braden home in and he'll wear it in pictures with Hailee. So, I may not be totally prepared, but I'm getting there. I guess it's different because I didn't have a shower, he isn't getting his own room (he'll sleep in ours but use Hailee's closet) until he's about 2, and all the things we need for him we have to get on our own. But...it'll all start to fall together, I'm sure of it!

ugh!

This whole take it easy thing is going to get old fast! It's not *official* bed rest, but it's still boring, and hard to get used to. I can't even sit at my desk long because my feet and ankles swell so bad. So here I sit on the couch, which isn't easy to get off of, but I suppose that's good since I'm not supposed to be on my feet much. At least my mom will be here next week to help and keep me company. Poor Hailee doesn't get what's going on and I feel horrible!

I did manage to get this layout done....it's for the newsletter, as well as one of my March dt layouts, at www.scrapbookplayground.com. I hate pictures of me so it's not easy to do a layout about myself, but I think I'm happy with how this turned out.

Well, off to web shop!
