Weekly Wrap Up (Oct. 21-27)

On Sunday we got to go to church together for the first time in a while!  It was wonderful, even if we were a couple minutes late to sunday school!  Then we had lunch at Mama Joyce's and relaxed at home until it was time to celebrate Zach's dad's birthday.  We had bbq chicken and ice cream pie to celebrate his big day.  Zach's mom got him a cross bow and we got him some broadheads and other equipment for it.  I think he had a good birthday!

On Monday Zach had school and had to take a test after his normal classes! We did eat breakfast together though and after he left I got to cleaning!  I spent almost 2 hours getting Nellie's fur out of our carpet!  I love her, but I do not love how much she sheds!  Then I spend the rest of the day with 6 loads of laundry, changing the sheets, putting away laundry, cleaning the floors of our bedroom, and going through our drawers.  I also tried my best to change out our summer clothes to fall clothes.  I have 3 trash bags full of clothes to donate, so I have a little more room in my closet!  Yay!  Then when Zach got home we went to Qdoba.  We celebrated our 5th anniversary of dating and got a cupcake!  Some days it's hard to believe we've been together for 5 years!  I love Zach more and more each day though!

On Tuesday it was back to school for me!  The week seemed a little long, but I think part of that was because the kids were thrown off by a four day week!  After school Tuesday I took my friends and their kids some pumpkin muffins and hung out until 9:00!  Talk about a late night!  It is totally okay though because we hadn't seen each other in over a month.  We had a lot to catch up on and the kids were so excited that I was coming over! : )

On Wednesday, Zach took me to see Hotel Transylvania! We had been meaning to see it for a while, and finally got to!  It was pretty cute!

On Thursday night we took supper to our friends, Kurt and Theresa's.  (The ones I saw on Tuesday) I made my two-timin' pasta bake.  I was so happy because everybody, including the kids loved it!  Ben (the oldest) got to go to his first karate class and then came back to show us his moves.  It was so incredibly cute!  I had also bought the kids glow sticks and was excited to give them to them.  Their parents said they had never had them before, so I got even more excited!  The girls, who are twins and 3 years old, were so cute with the glow sticks.  We turned off the lights and they waved them, twirled them, and threw them.  They just couldn't get enough of them!  We had too much fun!  Zach even got to come over after his class so he could eat and play.  The kids hadn't seen him in a while and 2/3 were so happy to see him! Haha!  Becca is a little leery of any man, so when she heard he was coming she said, "But I don't want Mr. Zach to come over!"  Ha!  I reminded her that she liked him and that he had tried on her princess crown before and then she was fine when she got there!  Love those kiddos!

On Friday we had jeans day at school since it was payday!  That's always a good day!  I don't even remember what Zach and I did that afternoon.  I do know I finished Nellie's Halloween costume and that we went to Qdoba again!  I am pretty sure we've been there 5 times already in two weeks!  Thank goodness they have a really good salad I like!

On Saturday I had a very busy day.

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...

Turns out...

Third grade is not bad at all! The kids are still pretty sweet and are so excited for me to be there and I am excited too! I think it will be fun to see all that they can do and have fun with them. Yesterday I received 5 notes on my desk about how excited that I was there and about how much fun we were going to have. I think they are right! Hopefully I get the hang of them quickly, because I start teaching Science (Mon and Wed), Social Studies(Tues and Thur), and PE (Fri) next week!

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!  ...
