Playing guitar with daddy

Girls night out, hottness, Daddy's shadow

Bodey slept in his own bed last night for the 1st time ever. I had hoped he would wake up in the middle of the night so I could bring him back in bed with me, and was very sad when I woke this morning at 5 to him waking up. :( I brought him back to bed with me and we snuggled for an hour before getting up. Tonight I'm waking him. I need him to sleep with me. Sleep is sweeter with him by me...

We were up early. Way too early. So we napped this afternoon :) My house is in shambles. This is 2 days of accomplishing absolutely nothing. But, the highlight of the day is Bodey got TWO baths today. So I guess I did accomplish something.

This afternoon was a scorcher. Tonight (at 11:00) our house is still in the 90's. Yuck.

Bodey spent the afternoon being his daddy's little shadow. He read books with his daddy, played cars with his daddy and even played guitar with Daddy. I'd say B had a pretty awesome day.

Tonight I went on a girls' night/say goodbye to Shelbie evening. Shaylah, Shelbie and I went and saw the Avengers together. It was a lot of fun. We ate way too much popcorn, got into a popcorn fight, had our soda (er...had my soda bottle...) expload ALL OVER the poor kid sitting next to me (who practically climbed into his girl friend's lap trying to escape it...wimp.) and ended the evening at Cold Stones. Where we left wondering if we just got a super duper great deal from the stupid cashier, or if all 3 of us girls are idiots who can't figure out their math facts. Either way, we're pretty stoked *thinking* we got a good deal.

Now I am back at home. I just took an icy cold bath. And I still feel hot and clammy and disgustingly hot. Tomorrow we are meeting with our midwife. So I need to head to bed so I can get up bright and early and actually DO HOUSEWORK (*gasp!*) before we leave.

Round ligament pains, Daddy duty & hot hot hot

Today I woke up with some horrible round ligament pains. They happen pretty much once a month, or ever few weeks. They're much worse this time around than with Bodey. Usually, I end up spending the day in bed. :( Which is what I did today. I should have taken a belly picture today...because I'm sure tomorrow or the next day I'll suddenly explode even bigger. That's usually what happens when I get these pains...

Bodey ate pretzels today. When Jeff told me this I said, "He doesn't eat pretzels!" Jeff calmly said, "He does now." Um.... haha! I guess thats what happens when Daddy is on duty for the day!

B was in a delightful mood today. Which is a fun change. ;-)

Our house was SO hot. I think I heatburned in bed. (Same thing as a sunburn...only with heat not sun.) Tomorrow I am going swimming. I'm gonna do it!!!!

^^ Ha. Yea right.

*eye roll*

I'm off to eat the last of my ice cream and go to bed. Early bedtime?? Sounds good to meeee!

Bike rides, storytime, organizing and softball games

.
Today we went on our weekly Tuesday bike ride to Mimi's house. Then we went on a walk to the library for story time. I thumbed through baby name books while Bodey chilled in his little push car and watched story time.

This afternoon Bodey played ball with his daddy, learned how to build block towers and read books with me. I spent the afternoon trying to organize....trying being the key word.

Tonight we went to watch Shaylah's softball team's game. Poor Shaylah. Watching her team play is torture. Hopefully she heals up in time to play one more game before season is over.

Bodey went down easy tonight. I was able to take a nice hot bath--which was interrupted by my brother pounding on my front door unexpectedly. :-/ Now I'm blogging, gonna go rummage for some food and then head to bed.

A picture is worth a thousand words

TODAY:

Set up Bodey's crib. He hates it.

But, apparently he LOVESSS his mimi's baked beans.

How smart is he?!? Putting his balls in his gumball machine!

Melt my heart.

Nothing more adorable than watching him scoot his cars around on the floor.

Cranky baby, uncooked zuchini and lunch with friends

No picture for today. I forgot to take any. ;-)

Last night was a rough night. Bodey was awake for 4 hours fussing. I think its almost time for him to be transfered into his own bed. I would love to get a few full nights of sleep before I start over with a new little squish on the "up-every-2-hours" schedule. :-(

Bodey woke up this morning a cranky little monster. Oh my word. What a grouch. We still aren't sure what his problem was. He went back down for a nap around 9ish and woke up at noon in a much better mood.

This afternoon we went with my family to someone's house for lunch. Jeff grew up with the couple's boys, so he had fun catching up with them and seeing their new families.

Funny story : I asked my dad last night what we could bring today for lunch. He called his buddy to find out and ater talking for a few minutes he says, "Um...he said bring nothing, but then mentioned zuchini..." So Jeff and I were planning on bringing zuchini... uncooked (since we didn't know what they were serving, we didn't know what form they'd want the zuchini in) zuchini. All morning we talked about how embarrassing it was going to be walking into this family's house holding a bag of uncooked zuchini so we eventually ended up just bringing french bread instead. And thankgoodness we did. Durning lunch, my dad apparently mentioned to his friend that we didn't know how they wanted the zuchini served, so that's why we skipped it and brought bread instead. I guess his friend stared at him blankly and said, "Zuchini?! Who mentioned zuchini??!" Needless to say, I am so glad we didn't bring zuchini!

It was a lovely afternoon, filled with some amazing food, sweet tea and desert. The baby boys played on their lawn, the kiddos swam, Jeff caught up with his old friends and us ladies hung out.

Tonight Bodey was a grouch again. Turns out he was hungry. Poor little dude.

I spent the evening planning out my day tomorrow (starting spring cleaning!), making a "to-do" list for the next several months, talking organization with my mom and making shopping lists. When Jeff got home from college group we ran to walmart to grab a few things then headed home. Jeff is getting B to bed now, I'm finalizing some lists and wonder... What do we have to eat?? Then we are both headed to bed. Hoping to get a good nights sleep tonight!

P.S please forgive me if there are any misspelled words in here. My spell checker won't work for me tonight. :(

Gardening, dirt tasting, learning...

Jeff took Bodey this morning and let me sleep in. It was wonderful.

This afternoon we went and bought our kitchen window (YAY!) finally found my yellow squash plant I've been searching high and low for, bought more dirt, got Starbucks coffees--half off! Bought a few cute pots to plant my squash in and then went home to start on the garden again.

Jeff slaved away on the pallet garden this afternoon. Who knew a pallet garden would be so difficult!? So far we have planted 4 different types of tomatoes (2 being cherry tomato varieties!) yellow squash, zucchini and jalapenos. I still want to plant a few more tomatoes, cilantro and a whole bunch of herbs.

Bodey discovered dirt today, and he thoroughly enjoyed it. He was fascinated by the texture of both the dirt and the plants. (he kept stroking the squash leaves!) He even did a few sample tastes of the dirt. I think he enjoyed it...because we had a hard time keeping him from eating it.

At one point, Jeff was hammering on the pallets while Bodey sat by watching intently. Finally he crawled over, grabbed a tool and started pounding on the pallets with his daddy. So sweet! :)

We called it quits when it started dumping rain! Hoping to finish the last few things tomorrow :)

For now, Bodey is asleep. Jeff and I are going to watch "Chronicles of Narnia" while stuffing diapers and eating chocolate ice cream with pretzels in it and maybe some Hummus on the side... <---totally a pregnant woman's craving, right?!

Bodey discovers the garden hose :)

Bodey discovers the garden hose

Broken bones, shopping, gardening

Shaylah broke her collar bone today. :(

Shelbie, my mom and I went shopping with my Aunt DeeDee to get some necessities for Shelbie's trip. She leaves in ...13(?) days. Whoa.

Jeff helped me start my pallet garden this afternoon. Its coming along nicely, except for one horribly sick looking tomato plant :(

Sleeping in, naptime, sunshine and chilling

Bodey let me sleep in til 9 today--what a good boy! And even better yet, he let me nap with him this afternoon. :)

After we got up from our nap we went outside and spent a few hours working on my new pallet garden. Bodey played with the garden hose while Jeff slaved away working on my pallet boxes and I sat in the shade sweating.

After that, we came inside and spent a while just being lazy. It felt good to just be lazy after a hot afternoon working in the sun.

Tonight Bodey and I went for a bike ride to his Mimi's house. We met up with the rest of my family at my grandparents and had company biking to my parents house. Bodey enjoyed seeing his crazy aunts and uncles biking alongside him.

Later this evening Amanda came over with chocolate brownie ice cream and a movie. We sacked out on my couch and watched the stupidest movie ever. It was fun though. ;-)

Tomorrow I'm going shopping with my sisters, mom and aunt! Yay! So i'm off to bed, we're leaving at 8:45--eek. Gotta get up and be ready early.
