With less than a couple weeks before my official due date, here's a little up-date on life...
- Last weekend was so much fun but really busy and so hot! Normally I wouldn't be complaining about the heat but when you're almost 9 months pregnant and forced to wear compression tights everyday...you really start to feel the heat. Regardless, I didn't let it slow me down. We had dance practice to attend, soccer, swimming lessons, baseball and a piano recital (Hudson's first one - we're so proud of him!).
- We did get to enjoy a barbeque and swim with friends and it was honestly such a treat to have dinner prepared for us with no clean-up, plus the kiddies had a blast. They fell asleep as soon as we got in the car to head home - a true indication of a fun-filled night.
- I had my last ultrasound and once again they confirmed it's girl...I guess you can never be 100% but at least I've seen it with my own eyes a few times now, so I'm feeling pretty confident.
- I think we have finally decided on a name but we're still arguing over how to spell it -ha!
- Race day is only hours away and I'm feeling pretty pumped! After the race my plan is to officially take a break from running...I say that now but I'm sure I'll change my mind next week - especially if I'm still pregnant.
- I feel like we've never been so behind when it comes to being baby ready...that being said, the important things are in place: car seat is cleaned and in the car, diaper bag and my hospital bag are ready to go, house is clean and organized for the most part - but it seriously only takes one meal or 5 minutes of playtime to make it look like a bomb went off.
- My daughter's first dance recital is on Father's Day and I'm so excited to see her on stage for the first time. We ended up paying a ridiculous amount of money for the DVD - just in case I go into labour or get stuck at the hospital.
- Speaking of Father's Day...the kids and I still have some things to get ready.
- Despite our crazy lives right now, we're looking to purchase an outdoor playset for the backyard. There are so many to choose from, it's a little overwhelming. Our only stipulation is that we don't have to put it together ourselves...we've been there, done that and never again will we attempt such a crazy task -ha!
- We just received confirmation of our summer vacay! I can't wait to head up-north this year and enjoy some time with the family.
- I decided to start washing the baseboards in our kitchen last weekend...I basically stopped there - although they look so good right now, I'm very tempted to continue.
- Our vegetable garden is all ready to go (not my doing) - my amazing hubby loves to garden and he's been working really hard to get it finished. Now if we could just find a way to stop the annoying baby rabbit from eating all of my kale I'd be very happy.
- But until we find a way...I'm super excited that the Farmer's Market is up and running again in our town...I guess I'll have to buy my kale there.
- My girlfriend bought the most amazing travel bed for her little monkey (He's almost 6 months). I loved it so much I decided to order one this week and I can't wait to try it out this summer...here is the link to where I purchased it from: https://well.ca/products/bbluv-nido-2-in-1-travel-bed-and_119802.html.
- My Mat Leave officially begins next Friday, then the countdown is on! June 27th can't come soon enough.
Have a wonderful weekend!
