Every moment is special.

Ladies, I can't explain how blessed I have felt lately.  I am able to cherish and enjoy all the little moments with my husband.  I love our unplanned dates.  Yesterday I woke up and spent the morning with my Mom and Paul as we waited for my brother to fly in from Tennessee where he was for the last 10 weeks doing an internship.  We picked him up around 1pm, then came home and hung out for an hour or so before mom and bro had to be on their way, since they had company coming to Moses Lake that evening. 

                                               

After they left Paul and I went to Burger King to get their awesome 50 cent cones!  Then we went to the Asian grocery store and bought a ton of fresh fruit.  Then we went down to Redondo and sat on the dock for 2 hours watching people fish and enjoying each others company.  This day could go down in the record books as one of my favorites.  Time with family and hubby.  Time before my child arrives, this child that I have dreamed about for more years than I can count, this child I created with my husband, this child that will change our lives forever, for the better.  I want to enjoy every day, every little date, every moment.  

                                      

Eleanor knows something is different.  When cuddling she is always on or near my belly. Baby likes to kick her. :) 

Becca, your clothes are a lifesaver!  I don't fit into any of my own clothes.  The only maternity clothes I have bought is two pairs of scrub pants and 2 t shirts from target (Candice and Amber target has the most amazing 10$ maternity shirts fyi for the future!).  This black shirt completely hides my belly from the front, black is amazing. 

 This morning at 9:30 am was our ultrasound.  Best 40 minutes ever.  Watching baby's beating heart, pointing finger, fist sucking, amazing.  I loved every minute.

After the ultrasound we went to Sunbreak cafe and split the biggest breakfast I have ever seen.  Paul never has leftovers, and we even had leftovers from the meal we shared!  Then we made a quick stop at Safeway and bought some green grapes because they were on sale. Amazingly we got out of there only spending 2.38 on grapes and nothing else!  With the possibility of a big move looming we are trying to use a ton of our food from the freezer and pantry.  I have really only been buying fresh fruits and veggies for the last month or two.

After Safeway we headed to Steve and Kathy's to show them pictures of their new grandbaby, they loved our visit to say the least. :)  Then we got to meet their new bunny thumper. Thumper got poop on my shirt, crazy bunny, but was oh so soft and fun to hold for the 2 minutes I had her.

This evening we went to Coldstone with some giftcards we had. It's funny how much more fun something can be when it is "free".   Makes the date even better!

So that's all for now.  Living, loving, and enjoying life. Remembering that every moment is a special one.
