So Behind

I am terribly behind when it comes to blogging.  Quite frankly, I am not sure how much I will be able to do once this new baby comes!  We have been busy around here trying to get things ready for the baby's arrival, but it's been very slow going.  I'm pretty limited to what I can do physically and the energy that I normally would have, just isn't there right now.  Uncas is still recovering from throwing his back out.  It's definitely better, but hasn't healed as quickly as he wants it to.  And it doesn't help that he is probably doing more than his share around here because of me!  Talk about a vicious cycle! 

But we are doing the best that we can.  We love our new basement and spend time down there every day.  Last night after Eddie went to bed, Uncas, Sammy and I were hanging out down there!  This weekend we moved our desk, file cabinets and printer down there.  I love being able to do "office stuff" without going upstairs and waking up Eddie!  We still need to move all of our books out of Eddie's new room and hope to do that this week.  This weekend we also went to IKEA and bought a new bookshelf for the basement.  And we also found a toy box for Eddie's new room along with the cutest little table and two chairs for him for the basement.  They were out of stock on the table and chairs, but I plan on going and picking it up this week because more will be in on Tuesday.

Last week I also bought Eddie a little swing for our yard and a little slide for him.  I figured he'll get a lot of use out of both since we may not be traveling a whole lot once the new baby comes.  I also found a dresser for his new room and a new rocking chair.  I found everything on Craigslist or at garage sales! 

As you can see we have been busy spending money and getting the house in order.  We hope to finish up Eddie's room this weekend and start our garden.  And then maybe we'll have a couple of weekends to relax before the baby comes!  I have been telling people that if I haven't gone into labor at this point, then I will most likely reach my due date and/or beyond!  I am glad that this little one is listening to me when I tell him/her to stay put!!!!
