So I already blogged about Friday's dinner out with Sondie at OTB! On Saturday, Dave and I tidy'd up the house and got more organized. My parents came over to visit, see the dogs, and help out with gardening. We ate dinner together then Dave and I rented "little fockers" on pay-per-view! It was a nice Saturday! Sunday, I slept in.. I went to bed around 11:45 p.m. on Saturday and woke up at 6:23 a.m.... I'd say that's a very nice stretch of sleep for being 39 weeks pregnant! :) I feel like a gold medalist in sleeping and bladder control.
Today, Becca came over to hang out and visit me before the baby came. It was nice of her to visit me! It's a hike from her Chicago apartment so I really appreciated it. We relaxed, watched Happy Gilmore, caught up, and took the dogs out for a nice long walk.
Here are some pix of the flowers and of my bump at 39 weeks + 1 day.
I went to Menards for the hanging flower bag.. $9.99
My profile at 39 weeks and Ernie and Bert.. they hate when I leave the house and keep them in
New impatiens planted in the front.. looks like the hosta from last year is peeking through
side yard of our town house. only 1 of my mini daffodils came back :( but we planted 5 impatiens on the side so hopefully they bloom well
4 mini daffodils are here and Mom planted impatiens on the side for me :) Thanks, Mom!
Mom and I planted the 4 planters in the back but Mom took care of all the ground flowers for me :)
the backyard is so shady.. hopefully the impatiens brighten it up!

ReplyDeletethe dogs are so precious.. I luv 'em! i think they will miss the bump for sure but at the end of the day, if i make time for cuddling, they'll be happy!
