{Weekend Recap}::: Friday night we went to Good Friday service at Hosanna! before heading to my hometown, Cornell, WI to spend the Easter weekend with my family. We didn't get there until late Friday night and then stayed up catching up with my family until nearly midnight! Saturday we had Easter dinner with my mom's boyfriend's side of the family and then hubby and I headed to my dad's to have Easter dinner with him and my brother and brother's girlfriend. It was a full day with a lot of eating! Then Sunday it was church and off to Fanny Hill for Easter brunch with my mom, her boyfriend, my grandma, my brother and his girlfriend, and hubby too of course! Then we headed back to Minnesota! Here are a few pictures to sum up the weekend...mostly of our little guy, Baxter! Love him!
Baxter drove us to Cornell :)
But after all that driving he got really sleepy and took a nap on Daddy's lap.
Cuddling up with Daddy at Easter dinner on Saturday. Rock a bye Baxter.
Me and Baby Christian got our picture taken with the Easter Bunny at Fanny Hill too! Our niece Sarah saw another pregnant lady do this and asked me to do it too! Almost didn't think I was going to have a chance, but luckily the bunny was at Fanny Hill on Easter!
Here he is sleeping on my lap on our way home yesterday. He has been sleeping ever since we left Cornell!! My grandma really wears him out!
{The Weather}::: After several days in the 40s, Saturday brought rain and cooler temps and Sunday actually brought a few snow showers and a dreary morning...followed by blue skies and sunshine! But still chilly! I woke up this morning to a windchill of only 5 degrees :( Might not be getting out for a walk today, but by tomorrow its supposed to be in the high 30s and even in the upper 40s-low 50s by Wednesday and the rest of the week! Hoping the snow is gone by next week!!
{The Menu}::: We actually ate all the meals I planned for last week! This week we have a lot of eating out planned, so less cooking for me :) Here is what we will probably be eating when I do cook this week:
- Poop on a Snowbank (AKA Shit on a Shingle but served on mashed potatoes instead of toast)
- Vegetable Soup (before soup season is over!)
- Chicken Enchiladas
{My To-Do List}::: I had already accomplished a lot when I posted last week on Tuesday. As for the rest of the week, all I got done was Baby Shower Thank Yous...but those were important! Here is what I'm hoping for this week:
- Finish Before You Were Here Book which I had hoped to finish last week
Other things going on this week:
- Follow up ultrasound in 3D on Friday at 2:15pm
- Birthplace Tour of the hospital where I will be delivering at on Saturday at 10am
My complete list of things I would like to finish before baby gets here:
- Paint the wooden legs of his hamper black to match his room
- Make a photo book of our honeymoon
- Make a photo book of our wedding
- Make a photo book of our first year of marriage...or get it started and up to date
- Continue working on Christian's Baby Book
- Make clothing dividers for Christian's closet
- Maybe make cushion covers for our rocker glider that is upstairs
- Clean the carpets...planning to do this May 11th (our next free weekend!!) so hopefully baby doesn't come too early! ha ha
Hoping to accomplish #1 and #2 next week. I think it should all be done (minus the carpets) by the end of April! :)
{Weekly Goals}::: I actually blew this goal out of the water and walked FIVE days last week instead of only 3-4! Based on the weather...here is my goal for this week plus another goal:
- Walk at least 4 days
- Read the Bible at least 3 days
{Words of Wisdom}::: I still haven't memorized last week's verse, so we are sticking with that for this week :)
"Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need." ~Matthew 6:33
HAVE A GREAT WEEK!
Please remember to vote! :)
