Dental Office Baby Shower!

Joe's dental office threw me an unbelievable baby shower. Everyone and their families were invited and we enjoyed fun, laughter, catered food, and many beautiful and much needed baby items.

This cake was homemade and tasted so so good. There were sliced strawberries filling the middle! Talk about heaven!

Okay, so these two pictures are for all of you out there who keep emailing and bugging me, J/K, for some belly shots. I have about two weeks left and I can't believe the time is finally here.

HORRIBLE TIMING!!!

Right now I feel like my life is in total chaos. You probably read from a previous post that we had a terrible plumbing leak under our kitchen. Well, after removing our kitchen floor, it was determined that all the kitchen cabinets that rested on the floor needed to be replaced too. So a two day project turned into a much bigger ordeal than first anticipated. Yesterday morning demolition began and we are now without a kitchen. They even took the sink!!! Talk about horrible timing. I have about two weeks left in this pregnancy and my entire kitchen/pantry is in my family room and in the nursery. After many talks with my OB about inducing early I pray that we can keep her incubating for a couple of more weeks. My biggest concern lately has been if there is mold now airborne and the harm it could do to my girls and a newborn. A "mold" specialist is supposed to come and do some tests. We might be moving out for a while!!! Who wants to bring a baby home in a mold, construction nightmare.

Labor Day Weekend

I was so excited for this holiday because it meant one extra day we could spend together as a family. Things have been so crazy around here because of a HUGE plumbing problem we have been having. We noticed large cracks forming around our fireplace and front door and our kitchen floor has been bubbling and settling. We haven't been able to open our front door because of this. After investigation we were notified that we had an active hot water pipe spraying under our kitchen floor causing our house to settle. I have had plumbers here everyday for about a week and next construction will begin to replace the front door and all the wood and linoleum in the kitchen. To top everything off our baby could be here in about two weeks because of her large size. I think I am going to see if we can wait as long as possible to have her. Who wants to bring a newborn home in the middle of construction???
So, after all this drama lately, I was super excited to get away for the day with my family and go swimming at my brother's pool, have a BBQ, and enjoy the fireworks!!! The girls had a blast as usual and the fireworks show was unbelievable.
