Not Much New

I have been a lazy blogger this past week. Not much new going on right now at our house. We are just anxiously awaiting daddy being done with his class next week and ready to spend some time together as a family. We are STILL eating up items from our freezer and pantry. I think this is like week 4. I do plan to head to the grocery store today for a few items but we still have some things to finish before I am ready to do a big grocery shopping. This week we had: spaghetti and left-overs 2 nights,Bisquick waffles one night(don't know if we will ever eat up all our Bisquick) along with finishing a box of instant grits and vegetable and chicken stir fry with rice. We ate out last night which was nice. It always amazes me at how much food and money we are waisting in un-eaten groceries! I do think it makes me be more cautious about what I throw in the cart too!

I cannot believe it is August! This year is flying! That is good news because you know what next month is...September! I am so thankful for a healthy and easy pregnancy. Something to definitely be thankful for. I have to admit that I am ready to take a nice very long break on being pregnant. For almost 5 years straight I have either been pregnant, seriously trying to get pregnant, or breastfeeding! I think my body is ready and deserving of some rest! I am ready to wear regular clothes again, move comfortably, and just enjoy being content with my two girls.

Little Eliza is quite the mover! I am amazed at how much more active she is than Ella or Samuel. I continuously feel a little foot in my left side (Not sure what that means about her position at this point). I can totally feel her stretch it out and poke me. Kev and I are both getting anxious about seeing her and finding out what she looks like. I am also a little worried about ella's reaction. She is getting more and more jealous! She is excited about getting to ride in the new double stroller with eliza (we'll see how long it'll last!) She tells us it is mines and whiza's and shows us where they will sit. I know it is gonna rock her little world as she has been our little world for so long now.

So not much new....I will post pics of our nursery IF we ever get it done. It is going to be repainted thank goodness! The bumper that I ordered will be her this week. Maybe it will all begin to come together. :)

Hey Julie. I just love your posts & I hope you don't mind if I add it to my favorite blogs list. If you do, just let me know, it won't hurt my feelings. I have to admit that I am kinda sad that Ellison doesn't have a sister...I adore my sister. I love your idea about getting rid of pantry food! We may just have to try it. I also wanted to let you know that I hear you about wanting to have your body back. I too have been trying to get pregnant, pregnant or nursing for 5 plus years and now that I am through with all that (for now at least), I feel like a million bucks...now I just need to get the weight off! Hugs to you!
