30 Weeks

30 weeks down, 10 to go!! I'm still amazed as every week goes by that we get one week closer to meeting our little angel.  We are so excited to meet her, we find ourselves talking so much about what features she's going to have, who we think she's going to look like, talk like, think like.  We are just so excited for her pending arrival.  This week I had my 30 week Dr. appointment which was uneventful, the usual weight check, listen to her heartbeat and measuring my belly. 

30 Weeks

This week was a short one work wise since we celebrated Memorial Day.  On Tuesday Baby Girl's nursery got painted and on Wednesday your Nana came down and put up the wallpaper.  She is so good at it, such a perfectionist!! The room turned out beautifully and I am so excited that things are finally coming together.

 This weekend the weather was beautiful and we made sure to enjoy ourselves.  Saturday after interviewing some nanny candidates we took Brisco for a great walk along the lake.  It was such a perfect afternoon, and while I kept up just fine during the walk, as soon as we got home I had to rest for a bit.  Caring around the extra weight is starting to weigh on me, no pun intended.

Saturday night we had our friends Josh and Bekah over to grill out.  It was so fun to see them and hear about everything going on with their wedding, which is only four days after my due date.  We made brats, caprese salad, Bekah made a yummy coleslaw and we had fruit and cookies for dessert. 

Sunday we continued our search for a nanny and think we have found some really good options. I'm also always amazed when a stranger goes out of their way to do something nice.  In between our interviews a woman walked up that overheard us interviewing and shared her experience with the nanny process as she has just done it herself.  She also sent us her contract she used with her current nanny and her daily log that she has her fill out.  The kindness of people is still out there!  Time for background checks and references!!  

After that we decided to tackle putting together the dresser/changing table. What a project!! A few hours later though we had success.
