Fun weekend....
Hello all.... Happy Sunday night! I had a fun weekend, filled with family :) Mom was still here, and the Green Bay crew arrived in Minnesota on Friday (Ryan, Steph, Emma, Ava & Aaron). It was great to see everyone and fun to have little Emma and Ava here to remind me that all this laying will be worth it in a few months. Ava was full of smiles, and Emma was full of energy! Ryan, Emma, Aaron and I watched one of Emma's favorites - Madagascar 2.... We all piled into the bed and enjoyed it :) When Emma was kissing me goodbye this afternoon, she leaned down to my tummy and put her finger on it and said, "Baby, you stay in there!" I hope he listens to his cousin!
Mom and Steph helped me complete my "nursery art" that I have been planning since November! It turned out pretty good and I thought I would show it off to everyone:
Our nursery furniture is now set up! Eric has assembled the crib, dresser/ changer, and a bookshelf. We are waiting for the mattress to arrive and are hoping to find a rocker/ recliner and then we'll officially be ready for Junior. Not that that gives him the green light to enter the world... Just makes us feel like there is less to do last minute :)
Mom was a HUGE help this week! She cleaned, cooked, brought boxes to my bed for me to sort, and so much more!!!!! Best of all, she did some shopping for me which included buying a frame for my NKOTB poster. YAY. Eric isn't as happy as I am, but he finally agreed that I could keep it in our bedroom until I was done with bed rest. It's the bright spot in my day :) Mom's week of babysitting was even extended due to bad weather conditions in Iowa. As long as things clear up, she will be heading home tomorrow..... Which makes me SO sad :(
I also wanted to say a special thank you to Renee..... And congrats on your best time girl :) Love you!
