Our Weekend...(20 2/7 weeks)

Well the first order of business, we made it to the half way mark on Saturday, 20 weeks, yahoo!! And things seem to be coming together in the nursery, we can actually call it that now as it semi-resembles one finally. I don't have a picture of the finished product because it isn't truly finished in my eyes, but getting close. So I have a few pictures of pieces in the nursery.





Saturday afternoon I was able to get Ed to go register for baby stuff. It was fun in the beginning, but then Ed got hungry and bored and that is when it started turning sour. So it was a little rushed near the end, so I had to go back on Sunday and clean up a few loose ends. But we started out at USA baby, because there were a few specific things we wanted there which is why the list is rather short, and then ended up at Babies R Us where the list seems endless. But I guess I didn't realize the things we could need. And it wasn't that easy finding things in neutral, at least that we liked, maybe we are a bit picky? But that is all done with for now.


Then on Sunday, which was supposed to be our day of rest and studying for Ed, ended up being a rather hectic one altogether. Ed worked in the morning while I went back to Babies R Us. Tried to get there shortly after it opened to beat the rush, but there must have been a line at the door waiting for them to open because it was packed 30 minutes after they opened. So then when I got home Ed was doing some research of his own online for an elliptical machine. We decided on Saturday that we would like to invest in an elliptical and after all the money we put into a workout facility we have to travel too, we would save money in the end just buying one of our own. So we ended up going to 2nd Wind on Sunday afternoon to price ellipticals and who would have thought we would have bought one the same day. And had it delivered last night and ready to go by 7pm. But the purchase of the elliptical snowballed our entire day. We had to then come home and clean a spot in the basement to put it, which turned into cleaning the basement essentially because one pile led to another. And of course we were both crabby while we were doing it because we weren't planning on doing it. But it got done, and it will work great. So now we have a TV down there too. Stay tuned to watch the pounds start pouring off! (Right now just off of Ed, but after the baby is born, me too!)



And this is a random picture that was on my camera from a week or two ago. Showing off my own personal Emeril aka Ed in the kitchen. He decided to use his artistic abilities when making salads one night with dinner. Who ever would have thought?

Your nursery is looking lovely. I hope we are not supposed to watch the pounds fall off of you, we want to see that belly grow.
