Hello Dear Friends,
I have missed you. It has been a long two weeks of sparce intermittent blogging and work temp training and moving and appointments and baby shower and family visits and ::breathe::. Temp training isn't over yet, don't get your hopes up. But, do to a special request/demand from a certain special friend, I am taking two seconds to display my weekend fun for you. OH, and tell you (in case you weren't sure) we've made it to 36 weeks!!! OK, now my weekend in photographs. Can we call this my "partial" Wordless Wednesday post?

JACKPOT!!!
The shower was fantastic! Thank goodness other people took pictures and have shared some of them so far. Wish I had thought to actually get pictures WITH people. Oops. But thankfully, my mother-in-law had a mat frame for everyone to sign so I can remember 20 years from now who all was there. I'm so grateful to everyone that came or were a part of it in some way. I'm also very thankful for Skype so my sister could "be there" with us via internet :) Best invention ever- thank you Al Gore... Anyways, so this week we've (I've) been organizing and reorganizing all of Peapod's goodies. Her room is still a mountain of gift bags, but I'm working on it a little at a time at night when I get home from work. I've started packing both of our hospital bags too! The Giant is just going to have to fend for himself and pack his own bag. The shower gave us lots of great things, some clothes (both bought, some handmedowns from me to my girl-thanks Mom, and lots of handmade- again thanks Mom!!!), some cloth diapers, wipes, our stroller/carrier WOOHOO thanks T, blankets, bouncer, toys, J&J shower lotions, Peapod's first diamond (a baby ring from her Great Grandmother giant), BabiesRUs gift cards SCORE, etc. Lots of goodies! Thank you thank you everyone. I'm in the process of going through our registry checklist now to see what we've got, what we need, and what we just want. Big differences! I've got lists flying every whichaway right now. So thats what we're up to. We'll be ready soon enough. Doctor's appointment today to check for progress and ultrasound. Hopefully, I'll be back to your regularly scheduled programming shortly, just a few more days... so hold on :) And trust me, I really do miss you!

Post shower photo- Stoller system is complete. Thanks to a dwarf, a dwarf's mom, and a giant's mom.... no men needed in this group. We don't need no stink'n help ;)

Peapod's "Cadillac stroller" as the grandparent's referred to it. Nothin' but the best from Aunt T.
