Weekend Fun

We had a great weekend. Friday night we went over to our friend's house for some hamburgers. We didn't get to stay very long because Joe had to come home and get ready for work, but we still had fun hanging out for a while. Saturday I got up early and mom and I went shopping. We went to Hobby Lobby and Target. My mom had a gift card to Hobby Lobby and she spent it all (and then some) on stuff for Kylie's room! It was supposed to be for her to buy something for herself, but since she is the greatest mom (yaya) she used it for stuff for Kylie. We got alot of cute stuff. We got some butterflies to hang in the room, some green and pink woven baskets for the changing table, and a cute hook to hang up (don't know where yet). We spent quite a bit of time at Hobby Lobby. After Hobby Lobby we went to Target and mom bought me some new pajama pants to wear in the hospital (since none of my pjs fit anymore). I am happy that I finally have Saturdays off so I can do stuff like shop and whatever else I want to. I always have fun shopping with my mom! Pretty soon Kylie will be joining us on Saturday shopping trips:)
Sunday I woke up really early and went to work (like every Sunday). After work I headed home, and Joe and I drove out to my uncle's house for a Memorial Day/Family get together. We got there about 4, but Joe had to work that night so we figured we wouldn't get to stay that long. There were a lot of people there (as always when the family gets together:) ) About 7 Joe said he thought about taking a 'personal' day from work so we could stay longer. He called his supervisor who told him it would not be a problem, so we got to stay as long as we wanted. I was happy that we didn't have to go home early. It seems like every time there is a family "party" we have to leave early because one of us has to go to work. We hung out and ate alot of yummy food. We had hamburgers, hot dogs, potato salad, chips, beans, and many kinds of desserts. We had brownies, fresh fruit, cupcakes, and sopapilla cheesecake. It is DELICIOUS! I think the favorite was a tie between the fresh watermelon and the cheesecake. We ate alot of food! Joe went swimming with some of the family, and I sat with everyone else and watched. We had a blast! It is always a fun time when the family gets together, no matter what we are doing! We didn't leave until a little after 10. After we got home, we were going to stay up and watch some tv, but that didn't last long. We were in bed by 11p (which is early for us).

This was the last holiday with just the two of us. By the time the next holiday, 4th of July, is here, Kylie will be here with us! We can't wait...Not much longer!

Coming Sooner than we thought...

Looks like Kylie will be here sooner than expected. I had an ultrasound today and was told I have to have a C-Section. Doctor scheduled it for July 1st. She said not to hold her to that date, but she was on the phone setting it up with the hospital when we left the doctor's office.
So even though my ticker shows 56 days to go, we really have 44 days! I'm excited that she will be here sooner, but kind of upset that I have to have a C-Section. I think Joe is glad that we have a date set, so that he won't have to get a phone call at work and rush to the hospital. This way we can go in together and not have to rush around before heading to the hospital. Doctor said everything else is looking good. The baby weighs about 4 1/4 pounds right now. Next appointment is scheduled for June 2nd.

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to the World's Greatest Mom!


Mom,


You have always been there whenever I needed you. You are the best example of what a mother is and should be. You are kind, thoughtful, loving, caring, and so many other things. You have taught me many things, and I hope I can be as great a mom as you are.


LOVE YOU MOM!!!!


Love,

Lindsey


p.s: Kylie says "Happy (grand)Mother's Day YaYa!"

4D Ultrasound..here she is

We had a 4D ultrasound on Thursday. It was cool to see what she looks like. Everyone is giving their opinion on who she resembles. The majority of people say she looks like me. In case you are wondering...the thing on the left side of the screen is her leg. She had her legs over her head the entire time. Future Gymnast I think. She also had a frown on her face the whole time.
