I just finished my long work weekend, which I usually dread and feel so exhausted during, but this week I knew I was going to have tuesday, wednesday off with Paul once I finished, so it was like looking forward to a vacation. Paul worked a lot of 3am-1pm shifts this last week which led him being gone from the house for even longer, and therefore we went to bed between 7-8pm this whole work weekend (friday-monday). Let's just say this preggo mama loves getting 10-13 hours of sleep a night! I also didn't pick up any extra shifts and just worked my scheduled 32 hours so when I came home on Monday instead of swimming I did 2 loads of laundry, vacuumed the house, cleaned three bathrooms and made dinner. Then I had Kathy come over and we worked on baby shower invitations. Getting all this done on a work day means this Tuesday and Wednesday have been blissfully awesome.
Tuesday Paul had his final review and had to turn in his last few assignments for manager training. It was in Des Moines, and I wanted to go to Federal way afterward, so I went with him and just found a cute coffee shop nearby to hang out while he had his hour long session with the district manager, which went super well! The barista at the coffee shop was stressed out because it was super busy and she was alone, but she made a dang good decaf caramel machiatto and I sat and watched greys anatomy on my phone while staring at the awesome mug my coffee was in. :)
After Paul was done we went and walked around the docks and piers down by the water before going to H-mart, our favorite Asian grocery store. We spent $35 at H mart and got a cart full of fruit, well it covered the bottom of the cart quite well. Gala and Fuji apples were 48 cents a pound! And peaches were 88 cents a pound and other stuff was super cheap too, I love getting fruits and veggies there! I am going to miss that if we move.
After food shopping we went to Pho Thai, my favorite, and had vietnamese sandwiches, then to ice cream which was THE BEST ICE CREAM EVER. Not a joke. Made from cream right in front of my eyes and frozen with nitrous oxide. Um, best ever, I am addicted.
I took my 28 week pictures a day early this week because I was dressed and had make-up on, and I work tomorrow, so I knew neither would happen! :) This baby is getting big! According to average size baby is 14.5 inches long and weighs 2 lbs! Wowza.
And here is the progression so far. I am so glad I started this at 9 weeks to see all the little changes that have happened in the last 5 months. Kinda crazy because it feels like yesterday we found out we were pregnant!
Hope you all are having a great week, love you girls!
I love hearing about how productive you are - you inspire me!
