It's Been How Long?

OK, OK, OK! I know its been almost a month since I last posted something on here so I better get everyone updated. Jeff has only two weeks left until he is cut loose from his training period, Christopher is getting bigger by the day (sometimes I wonder how he can stretch out as far as he does without tearing my stomach in half), Belle is still her normal psychotic self, and we have made a few changes in the past month.

Jeff and I finally went and picked out the border and paint to fix up Christopher's room. It's so adorable I wish we had it up so I could take a picture and show you. Unfortunately it doesn't arrive until our anniversary, which is just a few days away! We have finished the painting though so when his border does arrive we can put it up before I make my trek to the big O-H-I-O!

The plans have finally come together for the trip and the two baby showers. Jeff's mom (Mimi) mailed down an extra invitation for the party at her house and its absolutely perfect. Kim did a great job on the design and my favorite, the poem! The party in New Lex is going to be the week after and I cant wait to get started on the cake I have planed to bake.

We have added another pet to our family, very unexpectedly! We came home about a week ago and found that in the bottom of one of my plants out front we have a tree frog that now calls my plant container home. We decided to name him Herbie, a very unusual name for a frog. Jeff wanted to call him Kermit but I thought it was too typical. Belle on the other hand has taken a page from Jeff's dads feeding ideas for cats. She loves Cheerios and every time she sees Jeff grab the box from the pantry she follows him around until he gives in and gives her some. At least we know she's lowering her cholesterol in the process.

We've also made a few purchases in the past month to start preparing for family to visit. My cousins will be here next week and Jeff's mom will be here soon as well so we were very excited about our savvy buys. We found a lady on Craig's list who was very eager to get a sleeper sofa out of her spare room and we couldn't believe how great of shape it was in and she only wanted $150 for it. The other purchase was a little bit bigger of a buy but it will last us for a long while. I saw this table at the store and absolutely fell in love with it so it found its way home with us as well.

So over the past month a lot of changes have been made and we are one month closer to seeing our peanut. My next check up is Wednesday and its they day I have to fast and they do a complete check up of my heart and so forth. Lets keep our fingers crossed, hope to see y'all soon!
