We're spoiled!

Keelia and Cynthia threw us a baby shower on July 11 at the Meathe household, and we had so much fun! Cynthia's family made THE BEST enchiladas i've ever eaten, seriously! We had a great time hanging out with friends, got some good books to read to Katelyn, and lots of fun stuff to put away in the nursery. OOh, and thanks Hilary for the DELISH cherry chip cupcakes - I thought it was just a pregnant thing that I love them, but the men raved about them too! Everyone loves a pink cupcake now and then!

We're both nesting. . .

Andrew has been one busy guy lately! It seems like the TO-DO list is getting longer, not shorter, and we've been going full speed for the last couple of weeks! Proof: the second Andrew sits down, this happens.

The curious case of how to make a pregnant lady cry for 3 hours

Just when I think I'm acting pretty normal for being 28 weeks pregnant, something stops me cold in my tracks. Andrew and I rented The Curious Case of Benjamin Button last night to "relax" a little, and no kidding I started to cry about 5 minutes in and didn't really stop until it was over. About 15 minutes in Andrew paused the movie and asked (very gently, might I add) what exactly it was that was making me cry? I didn't really know, but I was so sad that poor little Benjamin was unwanted, and so glad that the lady who found him loved him! I seriously had a headache from weeping. . .great movie, but don't watch it pregnant or hormonal, that's my advice!

Monday Morning

When I got into work this morning, Grandma had sent me this little prayer that gave me a little extra boost. Thought I'd share!

Saint Theresa's Prayer

May today there be peace within.
May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be.
May you not forget the infinite possibilities
that are born of faith.
May you use those gifts that you have received ,
and pass on the love that has been given to you.
May you be confident knowing you are a child of
God. Let this presence settle into your bones,
and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance,
praise and love.
It is there for each and every one of us

4th of July weekend tasks

4th of July weekend was full of fun, the beach, BBQ's, and a couple of tasks. Here are some pictures of the crib being built - Andrew could have handled this himself, but we added a few people to complicate things - what I do best, really. Everyone's just so excited! The room is coming along nicely, and we've got plenty of time to get the rest of the gear in order. Well, 99 days to be exact!
