Weekly Wrap Up

Well our week was going pretty regularly with school, work, and tutoring until Wednesday.

I got up Wednesday morning feeling like my throat was caving in on itself, but went to work anyway. I was in tears because I felt so bad, so when my principal told me that I had to go home, no options. It was a good thing though because Zach took me to the doctor and it was STREP. Yuck! It loves me soooo much more than I love it. I also had really bad back pain and other "achy-ness" with it, which doesn't usually happen. So naturally, I felt like I was dying. Thank the Lord for Amoxicillin, which had me feeling well enough to go to work on Friday. During Wednesday and Thursday at home Nellie and I got lots of snuggle time and Zach was a pretty good nurse. He made me eat chicken noodle soup, but to make up for that I also got cherry jell-o! I can't tell you how glad I am that I feel better and also that Zach didn't get it as well. It is not welcome at our house ever again! (Haha, I wish, right?)

Saturday Megan and Elizabeth came over. We picked up Chick-fil-a and played Clue: The Office edition. You play to find out "Who Killed Toby?" (Which we all know would be Michael if it happened on the show! : )) Lizabeth won one game and Megan took the other. Then Megan and I got Orange Leaf frozen yogurt and shopped at Jo-Ann fabric. We had such a good time and need to do it again soon!

I also finished sewing a skirt I've wanted to sew for awhile. In fact, I did it a while back, but I couldn't get the shirring right on the first one so it got trashed. : ) I started this new one with some fabric I really like, so I was really nervous about it going wrong again! After a few frustrations, the shirring finally worked for me, and I have a new skirt that is cute, and cost me around $4.50 to make! I couldn't be prouder!

Zach had his first Sunday off since Christmas today. We got to wake up together, go to church, and eat at Mama Joyce's together. It was so very nice. I love it! Then that afternoon we got to just cat nap and then go to Cheeseburger in Paradise with his parents, who just got back from Mexico yesterday!

We had such a good weekend, especially after our not so great week! I am so thankful to have a healing God who has made me feel so much better. One good thing about being sick is that when you recover you are reminded to be thankful for your health! I hope everyone's week goes well!

Family room re-do featuring.... my curtains! : )

For a while now, we've planned on finally finishing our family room.  That's right, it's kind of been unfinished for the entire time we've lived there.  It was painted and decorated, just no molding and the ceiling was hideous because we (and by we, I mean Zach) took down the drop ceiling the previous owners had put up.  So, anyway, I looked at curtains and didn't really find anything I liked, so I decided I was going to make my own.  Zach and I looked at Jo-Ann's a couple times and each time we looked I liked this fabric more and more.  It was the most expensive fabric I've ever bought, but in the end, it was sooooo worth it! (*Note- I bought the fabric in January before NSM! : )) Here we are at Mama Joyce's one day after church cutting the panels.  I think we were all nervous to cut it.  It was too costly to mess up! Fast forward a couple weeks because I didn't have time, was lazy, and also scared to sew on it, and I finally just delved in an...

Valentine's Weekend

Zach and I seemed to stretch out Valentine's day for the whole weekend! On Friday night we had pizza ordered in (pineapple and mushroom, my FAVORITE, Thanks honey!) Then on Saturday, Zach took me to downtown Henderson to Memories, a little antique shop, and bought me a McGuffey reader to add to my collection! After that, we went to Bed, Bath, and Beyond in Evansville and Zach bought me a back massage machine that goes in the chair! It does shiatsu massage and feel wonderful! He jokes that now he won't ever have to give me massages anymore, but that's not true! Then we went back to his house, and he opened his present from me, a balance thing that measures reloading stuff for guns! As you can guess, I don't exactly know what it is, I just said, "Pick something out unless you want some new polos." Motivates him every time! Today after church and lunch at Mama Joyce's we rushed to the west side of Evansville and went to the movies! We saw "When ...

Bumpdate: 41 weeks!

How Far along: 41 weeks.   Baby's size: Size of a jack fruit!  Around 7.5 lbs. (I think he's going to be about 8 lbs and Zach's official guess is 9 lbs. 2 oz.  I hope he's wrong!) Weight loss/gain: 30 lbs. (So glad the weight gain is slowing down!) Sleep: I told Zach I no longer am even trying to keep track of how much I am getting up to go to the bathroom. Gender: B-O-Y Movement:  He has been back to his super active little self this week.  Best Moment of this week:  Getting to spend time at home together now that we're finished with the old house.  Also, the 3 day weekend!  We didn't sleep in, much, but we figure that's all about to end anyway! Looking Forward: Getting to meet our baby boy.  I think it will be a little weird, because I truly don't feel like I'm finished being pregnant yet.  But, alas, we pretty much have to follow Dr.'s orders. Food cravings: Still pineapple!  ...
