Busy, Busy, Busy

Ok so this weekend Mike's dad is coming over and helping work on building the frame for the basement wall. Then on Tuesday is my 30wk prenatal check-up. Wednesday both of the kids have dentist appointments. I have been clipping coupons like crazy to help cover the expenses of the party and hubby missing work. Plus I am still trying to catch up on laundry from my 20wks of puking. The gender reveal party is next saturday.

I totally can not wait for the craziness to die down a little. It will be nice after our party when everyone knows the gender so they can all stop asking me if baby is a boy or a girl. I am so nervous about making the cake myself. I really hope it goes well. We still have to get decorations too.

As for me and baby, we are doing good. My back has been pretty sore lately. I can't wait until the baby is here. 11 more weeks! The nursery is coming along nicely. We got a new crib mobile. We have gotten a bunch of the baby proofing stuff recently so no babies will be falling down stairs.

Allen and Amelia are keeping busy with headstart. Allen's teacher seen him on monday but now she will be on vacation for the next 3wks. Amelia got to paint today and she thought that was great. She wanted to play with play dough but we didn't have any.

Lots of fun and exciting things coming up in the next few weeks and months!

Deep cleaning

I've been working like crazy to clean up the house so I don't have anything to worry about for the gender reveal party in a couple of weeks. My feet end up hurting so bad at the end of the day. Thankfully I have a foot spa that Mike got me while I was pregnant with Allen. Tonight lil man and I got our foot spa on together. It was so cute! 

I also finally got around to customizing Amelia's dance bag and she loves it now!

 

We also made some sensory play toys. 

We did the colored rice in a bottle and I put rice in some baby socks to make some bean bags that they can squish, throw and stretch. They had a blast! We had such a fun day today and so did I. We even ate French toast for lunch.

Third trimester

So we have officially started the 3rd trimester!! I can't wait until this lil one is in my arms! At our appointment on Monday they gave me a tetanus pertussis vaccine and my arm is still a lil sore today. 

The kids had a headstart play date with two sets of twins. One set was Amelia's age and the other was Allen's age. All 4 girls and all four sisters. They were so tired after that that it took us 45mins to wake Allen up from his nap. I did get some pretty great snuggles while he was out. :) 

Amelia liked the older twins but got mad when they wouldn't listen to her when she was bossing them. I'm so glad it's the weekend now. I could use some r and r after a long and fun week. I'm going to make the kids some peanut butter playdough so they can have some fun tomorrow. We tried letting Allen play with store bought playdough and well it didn't go over well. Daddy is putting the munchkins to bed now and then we will get some quiet time. Hopefully we will have a great weekend.
