Another great week in the Wheeler household! I am back to being my busy self (within limits)! It feels so good to be productive again, especially with Spring right around the corner! Spring makes me want to organize anything/everything I can get my hands on! However, Luke said if I buy another basket to organize random things..he is going to divorce me ;) I just love baskets and organizational tools! And since I don't want to be a divorcee, I think I'll just throw anything out that doesn't fit in one of the 300 baskets we already have! hehe! My nesting "to do list" is dwindling quickly, I'll update on all of those little projects later!
This week my Mom and Dad came down to go to the Celtic Women concert at the Bryce Jordan Center. We bought my Dad tickets for Christmas... At the last minute I realized that when I purchased the tickets in November, I didn't take into account that I was going to be 8 months pregnant and that sitting in the 2nd level of the BJC was just not going to be practical. The 2nd level is STRAIGHT up, offering zero leg space and a gazillion steep stairs. I did't want to play the "handicap pregnant woman", but I knew that after 5 bathroom breaks of walking up and down those stairs...it would be disastrous. I called the Center and asked if we could move our seats to the first level..and well, lets just say we ended up in the fourth row on the floor! It was lots of fun to be so close! I will say that I practiced the pregnant waddle before we went in, as I didn't want them to think that I was lying when I said I was 8 months pregnant (b/c my belly obviously doesn't scream 8 months!) haha! The baby was Irish dancing throughout the entire show!
Whoops..I got cut out of the picture ;)
What really topped the night off was when I ran into an old college friend who lived on my floor my freshman year! Her husband works at the BJC and just happened to have two extra tickets to ELTON JOHN tonight!! We are so excited! Luke and I had just heard that he was going to be in State College this week, and were looking at tickets online! It can't get better than two free tickets in the first level! Can't wait!
Here are some 33 week belly shots.. I'm thinking it looks the same as last week, maybe a little pointier. It measured 33cm (1cm per week) this week at my doctors appointment! Hooray! I am down to 2 more 2 week appointments, and then we are on to once a week appointments (that means it is really close!)..
So far I have gained 22 pounds which is broken up like this: 4lbs- baby... 18lbs- Mommy's cheeks :)
Oh..and just have to share this...
We got the sweetest package in the mail yesterday from the Secretary at my Elementary School in N.C, Frannie! Frannie and I have lots in common, as her husband is a retired Colonel, whom she refers to as "THE Colonel", and she is super crafty! She weaves baskets and made us the most gorgeous basket for our wedding (A Franbury Basket)! This package was the never ending package, the type that keeps going with goodies! She made us "Franbury Burpcloths", which are the cutest ever! She even used the crib sheet from Pottery Barn, which matches our nursery, as fabric! XOXO to Fran...we were overwhelmed by your sweetness! :)
I told Luke to come and see what we got in the mail..and this is what he saw!
He said "We already have one of them!"..haha
Cute and practical..my type of craft!
No excuse to have spitup on our shoulders now..
