Looking forward to: This weekend, there is a Pampered Chef meeting in Illinois and we are staying overnight! We get to see the new fall products and maybe we can do a little bit of shopping :}  This week we celebrated my grandmother's 92nd birthday!

Garage Sale Finds- but not by me!!!!

A friend of mine, Randi, called me on the phone and I told her that I had gone garage sale'ing the day before- she told me that I would  have too many clothes!   Several hours later, she calls to tell me about a crib for $40.  It was a sleigh bed crib that was white. Amazing!!  It was near the end of her sale, so they bargained down to $20!!  When I got there, Randi also had an armful of clothes... wait didn't she tell me I had too many clothes already?  Well never mind that, they were cute and some still had tags on them :}  The lady also threw in some socks too!

4 onesies
a sleeper
2 jumpers- with the tags
a football button sleeper
and a toy which I am sure will make noise lol

Here is the crib which Randi got for $20:

Okay well it's not a photo of my new crib because I covered it up at my mom's house and forgot to snap a photo.  I did search to make sure that there was no recall on it- no bargain is worth the baby's life.

Week 29

First off Happy Birthday to my Mom!  

She is 27 again this year :}  

Love ya Mom!

How far along? 29 weeks

Maternity clothes? Some, but most regular clothes
Stretch marks? nope :}
Sleep: I still wake up nightly, but sometimes I just go right back to sleep.
Best moment this week: We had our first baby class this week.
Miss Anything? Coffee... not sure why but this week I have been craving my Starbucks- I think a small one is in order- that is if it ever cools off!
Movement: All of the time.  Thursday afternoon my belly was just moving. I am not used to that at all.  Couples in our baby class were talking about what the best and worst thing about being pregnant were- lots said movement- {Really?  I said it freaks me out!}  We were giving our introductions when we had to answer the likes and dislikes- then our partners could answer as well.  Lots of guys said they could do without the hormones. Randy and I agree, I don't think I am having a hormone issue at all :} Oh what I did say that I liked about pregnancy was the fact that I was pregnant.  It took us a long time to get here so I couldn't be happier.  Randy said he could do without me being so warm as he is freezing!! That's a real change for our house.  I am usually the one who is always cold and love the heat- well not this year!
Food cravings: Milk and chocolate milk :}
Anything making you queasy or sick: Food in general doesn't look or taste good to me.
Gender: Boy
Labor Signs: None :}  
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On with plenty of room to spare- I am not swollen at all.
Happy or Moody most of the time:  Happy
Looking forward to: Painting the nursery- among other things on my ever growing To-Do list!!

Co-worker

One of Randy's co-workers and a former classmate I had in my Master's program, gave us this adorable gift.  I can't wait to share a photo of him wearing that!  Thanks Stacy!

Looking forward to: Working on the nursery more. Randy was finally able to put the sealer/varnish on.  It has been so darn hot here, we are talking high 90's!   We aren't supposed to have days this hot here in Wisconsin!!!  We picked out the color for the nursery, it is called Baby Boy Blue :}

Of course my card would have a frog on it!  

All Boys sale

We have an electronic bulletin board in our district.  I heard that the day after school got out that there'd be an all boys sale.  I had to go to them before I made my way into school!  I began in Kohler- Great stuff for boys :}


I got two Dr. Seuss shirts
4 onesies- with frogs on 3 of them lol

Week 27

Maternity clothes? Yes and check out the score that I got earlier this week!  
Stretch marks? nope :}
Sleep:  yep, I'm up only once a night though :} However, if it's not to go to the bathroom, it's due to a leg cramp :{
Best moment this week: Finally getting our dishwasher installed- they tried last week, but had to send out a plumber this week.
Miss Anything? Well let's see, being able to sleep the whole night through would be nice, being able to eat runny eggs and Bleu cheese would be great too!
Movement: All of the time :}
Food cravings: chocolate milk :}
Anything making you queasy or sick: Food in general.
Gender: Boy
Labor Signs: none :}
Belly Button in or out? in
Wedding rings on or off? still on with lots of room- although I heard that I can't wear them to the hospital....
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy 
Looking forward to: Using my new dishwasher~ amazing for what we had and then with all the problems to install it- it is a miracle!  I need to get my money back from our lousy  housing inspector- who did a horrible job.  Also to the previous owners who did everything themselves but had no idea what they were doing... 

A purple top, a teal top, a white top 

two jammies for the hospital- one was brand new and the other one has three pieces.

a sweatshirt,

a pink and black pair of cool-lots

and a pair of gray slacks to wear to work.

All for under $60!

One of the pajama's that were brand new were over $70!  So that's a great deal in my eyes. I wore my new purple shirt today to school!

Not pictured: a lovely purple sweater :}
