Showers, and Nesting and Sickness. Oh My!

So...I for sure hit the "Nesting" stage of pregnancy. I had cleaned the kitchen and living room. By cleaned I mean scrubbed top to bottom. Saturday afternoon I did the dining room, Daniel's room and our bedroom. Yesterday I tackled the bathroom. I saved it for last because who really likes to clean a bathroom? That was the deepest cleaning I think I've even done. I'm pretty sure it's cleaner than when we first moved in. Just wish it would stay spic and span without any effort!

The beginning of the weekend wasn't too exciting. Jacob came home from work Friday not feeling well. I wasn't feeling good either, but mine had more to do with forgetting to take Lactaid for our potluck at work! He ended up sleeping from the time he got home until 7:00 that night and was back in bed by 9:00! He did lots of sleeping on Saturday too. Poor guy!

Yesterday was a bit of an emotional roller coaster for me. I won't really go into why, but it was. Oh well, I was still happy with the fact that I had a clean house! My work was throwing me a baby shower yesterday at 2:00. I finally decided that I should get ready at 1:00. Since the weather was so beautiful I was able to wear a dress! The first one I put on made me look like a whale (seriously...haha!), so I had to change again.

I had a little issue of getting to the house where the shower was due to a road closure. Oh man, was I ever frustrated! Thankfully my GPS decided to not go all crazy on me like it has been and got me looped back around on another route. Needless to say, I was late to my own shower.

About half of the people weren't able to make it, but I'm thankful that the others were.

This picture was at home. Ashely wasn't able to make it, so she dropped my gift off. She swears by this tub and I'm thinking of taking my bulkier one back now. This one even folds up after use!



At the shower. The pregnant lady wanted food! (Especially because I didn't have time to eat lunch!)





My friend Jenny did a devotional that had little gifts to go along with it!



Opening gifts.





Hawkeye shoes!



The awesome letters that Jamie made for Daniel's room. They'll be going above his crib!



When I got home I unloaded everything and showed Jacob. I got everything put away or thrown into his hamper to be washed. He got a cute Christmas onesie that says: "All mommy wants for Christmas is a Silent Night!" Haha! So cute.

Jacob also took my 36 week pictures!



This is my favorite pregnancy picture I think.



I have one more shower coming up this weekend. Jacob's mom is throwing it for me in Villa Grove! After that I think we'll be pretty well set. I'll still need to buy a few things I'm sure, but we're doing pretty well.

I didn't feel like cooking last night, so we had Pizza Hut and then hung out watching the Cardinal game.

I worked a full day today and Jacob ended up leaving school early with a fever. Hopefully this sickness passes soon! I feel bad for him!
