Sweep, or Blog? I Chose Blog.

Right now I SHOULD be finishing my sweeping and vacuuming, but i'm blogging instead. Obviously. I just needed to take a little "breather"... so I thought catching the blog up would be just the thing!

So.... The teryiaki sticks were a hit!! And by "hit", I mean Lorne and I loved them. :) I'm sure Baby loved them, too, but.... I think he likes all foods right now. I would most definitely make them again!

Also, those peanut butter bars really DID taste like they did when I was in elementary school. Success!

SO, we are tryin' our very best to get everything ready as soon as possible for this Baby to get here. I guess you never know if he's gonna come early, later, right on time... so I figure we need to just get everything done before February ends. I've made a master to-do list, and I think it's doable! One item is get Baby's nursery put together. We recently finished painting his room from a pale shade of yellow to a really light grey. Here's some pics of the progress....

When the room was yellow, still....

I decided to have some fun with the paint. That's the heart I drew, when I was done painting it, I looked up and noticed Lorne drew a "tic tac toe" board and was playing against himself. He covered it up before I could get a picture. It made me laugh and, I thought, kind of illustrated the difference between us ladies and guys....  

Lorne thought my heart was sweet so he waited to cover it up last... so sweet! ;) 

 So, anyway. It was fun! We're all done painting now, and i'll upload pics once we have it put together a bit more!

We have only 6 weeks left until Baby is sopossed to get here! It's nuts, thinking about how fast it SEEMS to have gone by. When I think back to the day we found out I was expecting it seems like that was FOREVER ago. The closer it gets, I can tell he's getting bigger and starting to run out of room! I'm trying to drink more water these days, (I should have been trying harder earlier. Oh well.) It's kind of torture with the size of my bladder these days, but it's worth it! My nifty water bottle the my sis-in-law gave me for Christmas has this nifty thing on it that lets me track how many bottles I've had to drink that day, so it's always rewarding when I can slide it over one more number! I need to drink at LEAST 3 bottle-fulls a day. That's roughly 60+ ounces of water. Good luck to myself!

A couple weeks ago Lorne and I went to Baby J's basketball game. He's quite the player! I thought it'd be fun to post once of his pics we got that night... we tried real hard to get an "action shot" but, I guess we need to work on our photography skills. ;)

 Baby J is the one in the blue jersey. He's so cool! Also, I think he's trying NOT to look at the camera. ;)

And this is my cute little sis, Lauren. After the game. At my parents. She's my mini-me!

Well, well, well.... I guess I'll share more SUPER exciting things about the Nelson's next time! I'd better get that sweeping and vacuuming done... ;)
