Making Changes

Good Morning!

As I sit and enjoy my morning coffee, the sound of the dishwasher doing its thing, and quite possibly the last Sunday I will ever have without a child, I figured I would make some blog updates and changes.  :)  So take a look around and tell me what you think!

It's been an uneventful weekend, no signs of labor, that's for sure!  Friday Danny and I went out to dinner and then went to a friends house to play cards, chit-chat and hang for a few.  Then we headed home and relaxed on the couch together.  I'm sure our friends think we are such a bore, and I know that Danny would probably prefer hanging out all night, playing drinking games and being hung-over all the next day, but our partying days are pretty much over.  Here soon we'll be on a bath time/bed time schedule and staying up until the wee hours of the night to play beer pong just won't be in the question.  I'm sure we'll be up plenty for midnight feedings, diaper changes and snuggling with Marissa though!

While Danny and his dad headed to the car show, I went to the local Antique Mall for the first time to check things out.  I wasn't really looking for anything in particular, mostly just looking to pass the time.  I did however pick up a new bread basket.  Yes, it's the little things in life that make me happy!

Yesterday I fixed a nice steak dinner (well, Danny grilled the steaks) and we had home made Red Lobster cheddar biscuits, which displayed nicely in the above mentioned bread basket (if you would like to try out this yummy recipe, go to the "Recipes" tab at the top), deviled eggs and salad with home made beets (from my parents garden)!  And for dessert we had chocolate pie, mmm, MmmM, good!  We settled in on the couch to watch the Redskins pre-season game against the Ravens.  They opened the game looking good, but couldn't follow into the end zone for a single touch down.  That's okay, it's still pre-season, we've got time to clean up our game!

Danny and the pups snuggled up on the couch together to watch the game:

Hey, there's something wrong with this picture!  Where's room for momma??  They kicked me to the love seat.  With my feet being swollen, Danny made me prop my feet up on some pillows.  But he did cater to me and bring me pie and milk, so I can't complain.  :o)

Today I'm going to clean up the house and we're supposed to go to the in-laws for dinner tonight.  Tomorrow I will be 40 weeks, so I'll be sure to upload some pictures of my big ol' belly if Marissa doesn't make her appearance before then. 

Wish us luck that this full moon on the 24th brings us our bundle of joy!
