and this...

... is what everyday is turning into. "you're only 7 months along? looks like he's going to be a lot earlier than you think!" hmmmmmm. i read in 'what to expect' yesterday that over the next 11 week Jax is going to possibly triple in size. this is both exciting and frightening.

monday monday

40 work days left until it's time for operation: wait for baby. things are starting to wrap up in the household preparation and to be honest my biggest concern these days is why is betty all of a sudden emptying her litter box onto the floor every single day?

i need some sleep and a little fairy to come in and clean up my kitty litter issue.

in the meantime, the random craft projects continue! this weekend yielded a key holder.


i seem to be incapable of putting those hooks in on any kind of level line but, like i said, i need some sleep.

is it weird that james has and has had a lanyard on his keys for the entire 4 years i've known him? i feel like that's the fanny pack of key accessories. riveting stuff eh?

we're attempting to make this for dinner tonight, wish us luck!

silver lining

what an absolutely INSANE 14 days in a row of work. we have been killing ourselves here to try and get a website ready for launch which was set to go tomorrow. due to unforeseen client decisions, it has been delayed. for how long, who knows.

all in all i thought well, at least now i'll be able to make it to the pre-natal yoga class i've had in the books for a month. that's pretty sweet.

and them the instructor called and the space we were going to practice in had flooded. class is cancelled.

silver lining? i am getting a Whopper and going home to spend quality time with my husband and kittens for the first time in 2 weeks.

hells yes.


ps: the "little" one is on some sort of insane growth spurt!

a tree for Jax

between answering emails this weekend jimmy and i finally tackled something i think we had been avoiding due to apprehension of the task at hand - well i know i was avoiding it anyway.

we ordered a sweet little tree decal for baby Jax's corner of the bedroom and it was time to finally put it up.


pretty plain and bare before - the little one needed something fun to look at!


and then we opened the tube it came in and cut out the 1 million pieces. o.m.g.


but it all went up so easily and piece by piece jimmy and i got to do something for the babe and we had a pretty fun time doing it. plus it was straight and nothing ripped - thank the lord! so cute.


the rest of the weekend was work and netflix and playing with the 2 little furballs. best thing about getting bernie well exercised is her dog face - she's been doing it since day one! looks like another work weekend ahead of me, let's hope i can get some sleep this week!

working for...

baby boy had his first bout of hiccups this morning around 4:30am. i think i maxed out at about 2 hours of sleep. weekend plans have taken a bit of a shift and looks like i am making up for having a week off by ... working for the weekend. yeah i did it - you know you love loverboy. whatever, i'm tired.

25 weeks down

back to work today after a much needed week off. i started the week with a spa trip with nina, then was able to fit in time with both families and some alone time with jimmy. with me as always, was Garth - or Jax.


things are coming along nicely with the little one. he is constantly kicking and i think trying to find a weak spot in there for his eventual escape. for some reason i have this feeling that he is going to be early. this absolutely must mean that he is going to be super late.

i was able to get some more sewing done for him over this past weekend and have only 2 blankets and 3 bibs left in the 'to do' pile. i even managed to get some curtains made for the kitchen and tear apart the couches so i could wash everything and anything possible. nesting is a strange phenomenon but i feel like i am getting to the end of the mental list i have been keeping for the past few months. 

only 2 more full months of work and 15 weeks to go until it's 'go' time.
