Labor Day...

Unfortunately we were unable to make it down to VA this weekend, as planned. When Nick switched departments he was wait listed for PTO this weekend and yup, he never got it. So we missed out on lots of fun in VA this weekend! I was feeling pretty good, too!

Sending out a huge congratulations to our dear friends M. & Mrs. Lee Hammarback!!!! Megan & Lee were married over the weekend and I cannot wait to hear all about it!! She seriously should have set up a webcam or something ;O)

Thursday Nick accompanied me to the breastfeeding class. We both seemed to learn a few things as well as tips and tricks. Yes, he won;t be having any baby latch on to him anytime soon, but he is my support, and the wonderful nurse was able to share a few pointers with all the guys too! I am so glad we decided to go! I feel a bit more prepared!! And can I just say I fall in love with the hospital more & more every time we go to a class. They are just so on point with couplet care & skin to skin bonding time as well as breastfeeding!!

We made the best of our weekend by heading to the Worldfest dowtown. It was neat to see the arts & crafts of different cultures as wel as try some new food! We chowed down on something I cannot pronounce or spell from Columbia and some Beignets from the Dominican Republic! OO an slurped down this apple soda pop! YUM!


The weather was AMAZING. It even got a little chilly by the time we went to play putt-putt with some friends, I grabbed a sweater!! I cannot wait for fall to be in full swing!
Hubs thinks he is so funny ;O)

We rounded out the evening with some progressive gin...which we never seem to finish a full game anymore. When you have 2 preggos in one game bedtime comes soon. So we have to finish that game before our babes arrive! Then we will never have a chance to start one haha!

Saturday I headed out early for yard sales! I wasn't really looking for anything in particular but managed to come across a my breastfriend I picked up for $5 and a Moby wrap still in package that I nabbed for $3! Yes, folks those aren't typos! ;O) I love my yard sale scores!!!

Sunday I woke up in an itchy fit-UGH! SO I took a shower & Benadryl and it knocked me out until about 1pm. Then I was so groggy all day I pretty much did NOTHING. I had the urge to clean and do all sorts of things but never managed.

Monday came the cleaning. Well more like nesting. I am sure that is what it had to be haha! I managed to weed the backyard, do some more of B's laundry, as well as our laundry including sheets/bedspread, clean oven, clean kitchen, decorate for fall, clean carpets & vacuum, clean bathrooms, clean out fridge...oh I know I am forgetting a lot!!! But needless to say I was on a cleaning rampage!

All I can think about is a pumpkin spice latte, decaf of course. I want one so bad, but by the time I am up & at-em in the mornings I just don't feel like going out to get one! This is a good thing right!?! I would have already spent like $20 this week if I went out & got one every time I wanted!!

Next Dr. appt is on Friday & I sure hope she says lots of progress has been made! I am starting to get really anxious to meet our baby girl!!!

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!!!

we didn't do the breastfeeding class...but I wish we had. the first few days were trying, and they did have consultants at the hospital that helped, but I think the class would have been better. Husband does help when i can't get Aydan to latch on correctly..so they do play a part in the breastfeeding area :)
