A great afternoon!!

Today I got a great surprise because Bryan ended up coming home at around 2:00 from his class over at the hospital! We went and got his car washed (inside AND out), got sweet teas from Chick-fil-a, ice cream from Baskin Robbins, and went out to Jacobson Park (without the dogs). We just laid on a blanket by the water and watched the ducks and relaxed...it was heavenly! I figure this might one of the last days we can just go and do something like that, just the 2 of us. Then we came home and grilled out (I LOVE summer!!!), I made these amazing chocolate chip cookies...seriously, they were AWESOME, Bryan took the dogs for a walk and is now assembling the ceiling fan. It felt like a very productive but relaxing afternoon. Over the weekend we steam cleaned the carpets in the whole house...we rented a steam cleaner from Kroger. It did a really great job, our carpets were GROSS mostly because of the dog hair/dirt. Now they look brand new! The nursery is looking more and more done, and I need to pack my hospital bag! Tomorrow I go for another ultrasound because apparently Caleb was measuring big at my last appointment. I don't know what it will mean if he is still "big" but I know I'm ready for him to get here. The getting up every 1/2 hour to pee at night thing is REALLY old. Plus it seems to take me an hour to roll out of bed...I feel like a whale! I also have been having nightmares about the birth/right after the birth that I don't care for. I will be 37 weeks (full term) this Thurs. or Fri. (depending on the ticker)...so anytime after that, Baby, you can make your appearance, really!!!

I had so much fun with you this afternoon! We need to try to make time like that for each other more often, even after Caleb gets here. I know it'll be hard,but it'll also be so worth it!

Sounds like a nice day. Take the time now its so important to stay connected as someone other than Calebs parents and those first few months its harder than you think to do.
