the bags are packed and the quilt is wrapped up and ready to go!
{you know...the important stuff}
take care and thanks again for all your well wishes and sweet comments!
bob and i went out on a date, we figured we'd better go tonight because it will be a while before we get the chance to eat out alone. the laundry is just about done, i just need to wash everyone's bedding and do a towel load. i still haven't packed my bag, i don't know what i want to bring, that's always a dilema for me...
the little princess is so excited she can hardly stand it! i'm still not sure how the happiest boy will react. at least now he's not saying "NO" when we mention the baby's name, now he says "whoo, hoo". bub on the other hand is being a pill! he's not looking forward to more noise in the house. the funny thing is, he doesn't realize that he's the one that causes most of the commotion.
i'm going to say goodnight, i feel a cold coming on and i really don't want to get sick!
have a good one!
i haven't gone to the back yard in a very long time and today i noticed these so i thought i'd share them with you...
it's one thing that hasn't been destroyed by that darn dog that bob brought home how many months ago...any one want a really nice dog that needs a ton of attention???
changing the subject, before i get {irritated}...
dr brody's quilt has been quilted, the binding has been sewn on and now i am stitching it down...
lots of progress today! yeah!
take care and thanks for all your nice, nice comments!
goodnight!
she had to have streamers...
and a gift...
and his favorite dinner and dessert. thankfully, he's pretty easy to please and his favorites didn't require a lot of preparation.
we made sure that the house was clean and his favorite music was playing.
i'm pretty sure he was surprised and i know he felt appreciated.
so, happy appreciation day, honey. we love you!!!
after the "party" i loaded dr brody's quilt and got everything ready to quilt it tomorrow.
i go see her in the morning for my weekly check up.
(karen...i've got my fingers crossed that i've dilated at least some)
take care & goodnight...
speaking of the baby...not much is happening. her movements are slowing down a lot and i still have contractions, but nothing that suggests labors a comin'. which is fine, because like i said i need to get the binding on the quilt along with a few more things that are on my list. have i mentioned that i am scared to death this time...
i'm not sure why, it's not like it's my first...it's my fifth for cryin' out loud.
i'm trying to talk myself into having an epidural, but that in itself scares me. i don't know waht my problem is, bob thinks i'm crazy. i think i'm just getting too old to handle the pain like i used to. i guess we'll see. there's no turning back now...
well enough rambling, hope you all had a great weekend.
big hugs and lots of love to sissy who's not having a great day. i wish i was there to give you a huge hug and tell you that all will be ok.
{love you puter!}
goodnight.
not really. they are fake.
i tried to find pink bunny dishes but couldn't, so i settled for these little guys in honor of anne at bunny hill.
patty and peggy were the only ones who finished their blocks. peggy actually made two different sets. i don't know why i didn't get a picture of hers, but here's patty's. they are georgeous and her applique is wonderful!
i've so enjoyed this group and will miss meeting with them every month. i love you guys. thanks for your friendship! and a HUGE thanks to anne for her wonderful generosity and beautiful block of the month!
love,
i'm tired and my house is again a disaster and i wish that i had a robot that followed behind the children and picked up after them. i wish that pregnant women got a discount on toilet paper. and i wish that laundry did itself.
in my dreams...
goodnight!
we meet for the last time on saturday, so tomorrow will be spent making more little bitty blocks.
i wanted to say thank you to whom ever said a prayer for me to get a good nights rest. for the first time in who knows how long, i slept for {4} hours straight last night. whoo hoo!
i hope you guys are having a great week!
take care,
i did more laundry than i would even like to mention...
my mom and the little princess helped out by folding the baby clothes.
and not that it's blog worthy, but again, with mom's help, i finally got the slipcover back on the couch.
and one of my favorite things i did today was tidy up the space under the cradle, and made sure her bed was ready.
the little princess got the boppy ready and she now has a comfy space awaiting her.
and speaking of comfy spaces...goodnight and sleep well for me, will you!
her favorite color is green and she loves hawaii, so i decided to make this quilt...
slice of pineapple. i love the pineapple log cabin, but don't have the time, so this one will do.
i also went to the doctor's today and had my weekly checkup...no progress, but i did finally get to the store to buy some of this.
so i could wash all of this...finally!
not much else got done that's on my list, but i did get to wienerschnitzel to buy the fabulous {30} cent pretzel buns for bob! thanks karen for the tip, he loved them!!!
what you DON'T see...
bub crashing his new bike, bruised, sore and CRABBY!!!
what you do see...
happy boy riding the dirt bike all by himself and having a GREAT time!
what you DON'T see...
the bike speeding towards camp and aunt suz saving my happy boy from crashing by grabbing him by the arm as he speeds past her.
thank GOD for auntie!!!
what you do see...
a camp...
what you DON'T see...
all the people within that camp having a GREAT time.
hope your valentine's weekend was full of great times spent with people that make you smile!
that's what we found when we cooked up a wonderful tortilla soup made by lisa! i thought i'd share her recipe with you.
{and just as a side note...my kids devoured it!}
