End of August

Well, it is the end of August. Next week we will be into September! Crazy! September is the last month before our baby boy arrives!! I don't feel ready at all....but at the same time I'm ready for him to be out of my tummy and me to have my body back. :-)

We finally got the crib together and I am working on sewing the crib bumpers/baby bedding. It's been a slow process since my belly gets in the way a lot these days.

We have been blessed to have a very fruitful garden this year.

 We actually managed to grow a reasonable sized honey dew melon. I'm super excited about that, and can't wait to eat it! :-)

First "Big harvest" were some tomatoes and a cucumber:

Then the bigger tomatoes ripened and more cucumbers. :-)

Biggest cucumber yet:

We even have two butternut squash growing out there!

 Our Basil in our Herb garden is doing quite well too, so we've been able to have some delicious meals with our produce this year:

Tomato basil stuffed chicken, mmmmmm.

 We also made homemade pesto for our tortellini, so much better than store bought!

And today we had "GoughGosh"/ Tabouli, using fresh produce from our garden. 

Yesterday Scott and I cleaned out the attic and garage, and had a yard sale. We made more than we expected to on the junk we have: $40! Then spent it on things we needed to fix the house....too bad I couldn't use it on a nice Sushi dinner, but it's good to be able to work on the house.

After yesterday I am completely wiped out, so I plan to relax the rest of the day because there's lots more to do tomorrow!

Lots of Things

So lots of things happened since our last post:

Scott and I were able to visit my family in PA for a while, for my sister (Julies') wedding.

Making bouquets and boutonnieres. 

Bridesmaids and Bride getting ready in the morning. 

Waiting.... 

They're Married!!!

 The "Grandma" Pose

 Reception

It was a fun day but I was completely exhausted at the end!!! Congrats to the happy couple!

 In between the hecticness of the wedding, etc. We hung out at my parent's house, went swimming, and chatted. 

My Daddy's project.

 Oh yes, and the day before the wedding we celebrated Stacey and Mom's birthdays. 

Finally able to use the "Maternity" parking spot!!! :-)

 Scott and I had a wonderful date at Bankok Wok, a restaurant  I was craving all my pregnancy but is only found in PA. 

 My last full day in PA, my sister (Stacey) and aunt (Deb) threw me a cute lil' babyshower. It was fun to celebrate with the family (Dr. Suesse themed!)

 The timed diaper changing challenge.....I lost.

 Winners of the diaper changing challenge.

 Awesome Deb

 Sammy won the "Red fish" in a jar.

 Some of the stuff was just so dang cute!!

.......I will update more later...I'm tired.
