Baby Carhartt's


Just had to show what David got for Father's Day from our friends Kevin and Sue. Sue was worried David wouldn't have anything to dress Luci in once he is on daddy duty. Super cute stuff - like daddy, like daughter. Maybe they make the overalls in David's size and color! As for the color - it says on the tag it is Dark Red, but it's looking pink to me! Sue tried so hard not to get pink. Oh well! I'll throw in some striped tights and she'll be dressed just right for Oregon!

Father's Day

Today is Father's Day. Happy Day to my big daddy Freddie! and to my soon to be daddy-husband-David. Can't quite call him Daddy yet...since I already have a daddy. It just sounds weird to me at this point. David spent the weekend working in the yard and planting lots more in the garden. We've got a lot of sugar snap peas ready and of course lettuce and greens. I froze all the greens we could harvest at this point. Can't wait for the tomatoes though!

I spent the whole weekend washing and sorting through all the clothes we have received - new and old. Our neighbor gave us two huge garbage bags filled with girl clothes. This has been overwhelming. Does a newborn need 30 newborn onesies? How long do they stay a newborn to fit in to all these onesies? So - wash, sort, put in boxes, label, hang, go back through the boxes, etc. This is what I have done. And I still have a pile of clothes surrounding me as I type. Oh well - she won't be naked!

I'm now at 33 weeks. Just in the last week have I started to experience heartburn...especially after lunch. It's not like I am eating a lot in one sitting and I'm being good about what I eat. Just a lot less space in there these days. I'm also not sleeping as well as I was just a week ago. My plan for the summer is to take lots of naps! Today I had to chase the chickens back to their coop. David had just put up a new fence between the two halves of the yard and these smart girls figured out how to jump on the canoe and over the fence. So - I am running around, corralling them through the gate, and sure enough I pulled something in my hip. Got to be careful - the relaxin is setting in.

My doctor's appointments will be every two weeks now for the next month. I've got 3 more massages to get in before she arrives, weekly yoga, and hopefully a couple more pedicures too! Hoping the sun will start to shine and the heat comes so that I can start swimming outside and get a little bit of color. Angela is due in just a few weeks and we are hoping to hit the pool before her little girl arrives!

Baby BBQ

Angela hosted a very fun BBQ for us in our backyard. My mom and sister flew out from Florida and did a lot of work getting ready for the BBQ. Check out all the pictures on Picasa. Lots of friends came from close by and all the way from Eastern Oregon! It was so great to see everyone and enjoy a beautiful Oregon summer day. The food was fantastic and the kids had a great time playing in the yard. Thanks everyone!
