time is flying!!!

wow i can't believe that it is already the end of july!!! this little guy is still growing... right when i don't think i can possibly get any larger... and here i am expanding as i type!

it's been pretty busy. Jordan and i just got back yesterday from a 3 night camping trip with the fam. it was a nice time... i am very thankful that on 2 of the days brief thunderstorms kept it cool! (they were expecting it to be in the 90's) yikes!!!

our neighbor lady gave us a gently used pack and play and a baby bathtub yesterday so that's exciting... we are accumulating all of the baby stuff!

i painted the bathroom walls ... i used the "peanut butter" paint from our bedroom... it turned out nice and goes even more nicely with the new towels.

i made a batch of raspberry jam last week! pretty excited about that... Mama Levien helped me pick the rasberries and got me all set up with the pectin and then i went home and made it. tada! pretty proud about doing it. (even though it was easy)

tomorrow i'm planning to get up around 7:00 (while it's cool) to pick our beans and start canning some of those... using my new canner for the first time!

well that's probably about it for now!
Midwife apt. tomorrow night.

Midwife Appointment

Everything is great!
this little guy is still head down and ready to go! so that's good

Blood pressure is excellent!
No signs of gestational diabetes!
His heart beat is strong (in 140's)
and i'm measuring 30 cms now

i scared myself a little today when i woke up
and started making a "to do" list.
well that part is normal! (i am my parents child!)
the list however was a bit tedious, including
emptying all of the kitchen drawers and washing all of the contents...

i decided that it was too early for nesting
and opted for some yard work instead! :)
