hi.

I'm here, if anyone is even still reading my blog. I am a lazy lazy blogger, and I have no excuse for it. Well, our laptop isn't completely internet-ready yet, but that's not a very good excuse, is it? And I have about 300 pictures to choose from to post on here, but along with being a lazy blogger, I'm a lazy photo-transferrer and they're all still on my camera, and not on a computer. I'm just lazy, that's all there is too it. But let's blame the baby, OK? :)

We've been busy the last couple weeks...Joe painted the baby's room- it's a light gray with white trim- and it looked so good, it made our own room look pretty crappy, so we emptied out our room and repainted that....and then we got a new bedframe and some nightstands and just re-did the whole bedroom. It looks so much better now. I would say I'd post a picture of it, but we know that won't happen this week, right?

Also, our bathroom is torn up this week, getting new flooring in and patching a hole in the window/wall, which got there from a leaky window. It's more of just a patch job, until next summer when we have more time and we (Joe) can re-do the whole bathroom.

Other than that I've just been trying to stay semi-cool. We don't have air conditioning, so basically I sit in front of a fan most of the time I'm at home. I spent this afternoon out at mom and dad's in the pool, which is a huge improvement over my hot house.

The highlight of my last week was when we were in Michigan, and we got to spend a day at my own personal Disney World.....IKEA!!!!! I love it there. Of course we had dinner in the Ikea Cafe' and we stayed until closing time. (That's where we bought the bedroom furniture, etc.)

This weekend Lisa's coming home (yay!) and the family's going to the Japanese Steakhouse for dinner on Saturday for my birthday. I can't wait. And Rylee loves it as much as we all do...she thinks she's at Emeril's and yells "BAM!" to the grill chef. It's hilarious. Maybe I'll take pictures. Maybe you'll see them.

I'm excited to read your new post. Might as well be lazy now. You won't be able to get away with that too often after Nov. I feel your pain with no a/c. It only took me 30 years to get it. Since Kyle was an Aug. baby, I remember being totally miserable trying to sleep when it was so hot. Guess you'll have to hang out at your parents. Good luck!

NO air conditioning? I can't imagine that. I remember the days growing up where I just sweat all night, and slept like 2 inches from the fan. This is the time when you don't have to apologize for not doing things - enjoy that part of pregnancy! Of course we want to see photos, but understand you've got the whole baby thing going on! By the way, did you register anywhere? What's the nursery like besides grey?

It doesn't get any better than the meatball dinner at the Ikea cafe. We're going to the one up near Washington DC this weekend.

I was going to comment on how we're going up to Ikea this weekend (and to babies r us to register and some baby outlet stores) and will be having lunch there...mmm swedish meatballs...but I see my husband already beat me to it. LOL I guess we think alike.

I can't imagine being w/o ac in this stage of pregnancy. It's been so hot here the last few days...when I got home last night we had the ac cranked and I had to sit under the fan. LOL

Ok, how on earth can you be pregnant and not have ac? That's ungodly...of course you're not in Texas, so it is not that bad. Swimming while pregnant is the most amazing thing. Makes you feel like a feather for once!
I just redid marcus' room from all IKEA...it took us three trips to get it all right but we love it. What did you get?
