weekend inventory

I'm back.  Back in a really good mood.  A four day weekend was just what I needed to feel less like a beast and more like a beauty.  The meltdown I had on Friday afternoon didn't hurt either. 

Thursday and Friday I spent the days working on the yard and playing outside with the fur babies.  We took naps in the afternoon while watching the Olympics and it was so relaxing.  Friday evening I walked down to my best friends house and vented with her and her mama.  I just needed to complain a little.  Sometimes a girl just needs someone to let her talk nonstop about everything that's nagging her for a solid 2 hours and agree that, yes, I am in the right in all of those situations.  Thanks for that Meg.  The frozen yogurt that ended the night didn't hurt either.

Saturday, DJ and I got up early and went to the farmers market in downtown Plymouth.  I used to go frequently, but I haven't been this entire year. I can see I've been missing out.  We bought all kinds of treats, fruits, veggies and sampled a plethora of bbq sauces.  Being up that early really opens up so much time to get things done.  We ran errands all day long and made a huge dent in our to-do list.  I also went a little insane on the baby clothes.  I know everyone keeps telling me not to buy any because I will get a ton at the baby shower, but I can not be stopped right now. 




I want these.  I'll be back for you!




We bought spicy jalapeno raspberry jelly.  Nom nom nom.




We grilled dinner and ate outside on the deck when the weather cooled off.  We got our Pandora on and listened to the Heart station.  So. Very. Awesome.


None for me :(



I cut the corn off with a knife then eat it.
 Sunday we had a late breakfast and just as soon as we came home I got the call I had been waiting for all week!!!  Our crib was in!  I did not hesitate to drive to pick it up.  I left DJ at home to paint the frames for the nursery.  He wanted me to wait, but again, I could not be stopped.  I'm sure the young girl that had to lift my insanely heavy crib into the back of my SUV thought it was real cute that I left my husband at home.  I got it home and impatiently bounced around until the husband caved and said that we could start putting it together.  It took us about 25 minutes to find the first two pieces, but once we found those it was smooth sailing.  It still took us 2 hours but we didn't kill each other and that is a success in our book.  It all looks so good.  Happy lady over here.

Ok first of all, food posts are a pregnant ladies best friend/worst enemy! I'm literally craving jam, cherries, and corn after scrolling through your market pics! And hooray for the crib! We just put ours together about two days ago and then once we realized it wasn't going to fit through the bedroom door, we had to take it apart again : / hahaha! Can't wait to see yours! And yes, our due dates are very close! Mine in October 6th : )
