Moving on from Cherrios and into another carb... waffles. Yeah, this has been breakfast and dinner for a while now. I just toast them and eat them straight... no messing with the syrup. Sometimes that is all that I can deal with.

Miles is a Batman Fan
Tonight we went to go see Dark Knight. This little guy moved the entire time delivering some swift kicks that even I was surprised with. Either way... I think he enjoyed himself.
Third Tri
So today we are in the final trimester! The first two flew by.
For the past few weeks Miles has been the size of an eggplant... next week we move to a squash.

Mommy prepping the closet
at the store gave us a demo on how to install it and made it look so
simple, so we ran home to install the system.
Although it was not as easy as he made it look we still got it done in
a couple hours. Since we got it done so quick we decided to fill it up!

Cupcake Coma
This weekend Megan and Grace ventured out to Culver City to spend the afternoon with me! What a lucky girl I am!
Gracie captured on Polaroid licking her battered spoon
We made some German Chocolate Cupcakes and homemade peanut butter icing. Grace loves the big girl stuff. So pouring, stirring and icing was right up her alley.
After we were done with the cupcakes, Megan and her little one had to jet to a birthday party. Alas that left me with roughly 20 cupcakes.
20 cupcakes and a pregnant woman....
Needless to say by the next morning I realized I might slip into a Cupcake Coma if I didn't get rid of these fast!
I loaded up the car and drove them to the only place I could think of that would help me get rid of these on a Sunday.... Doggie Day Care.
They were happy... I was recovering from insanely high sugar levels. Everyone was happy.

Loving Husband
I have to say even though Evan has been busy at work, riding his bike to and from the office and dealing with stress he has found time to lately to make his crazy pregnant wife more than happy. I came home last night to find him fixing our kitchen sink, the dogs had been fed, the trash taken out and a huge smile on his face. He then proceed to cook me dinner.
He is really going above and beyond lately and EVAN... I NOTICE and THANK YOU!
Have a great time this weekend and hopefully the break from your obsessive pregnant wife will give you a bit of breathing room.
I love you!
Miles is one lucky boy....

Wallpaper hangs
Last night we dove into hanging the wallpaper in the nursery closet. I am happy with the results and can't wait to see it with the closet system added.
The wallpaper was easier than I expected. Not to say it was easy.. just easier. I wouldn't want to do it again though.
My pictures are sub par... but it was 12:30 at night when I took them. Cut me some slack.

BLD... breakfast, lunch and dinner
So lately my daily menu has been consisting of multiple bowls of Cheerios... I need to get stock in GM at this rate. I think i have broken records for the amount of cereal one can consume in 6 months.

Painting... DONE
The painting in the Nursery is done.... we take the tape off tonight. Evan primed the back of the closet so we can hang the wallpaper soon.
This weekend we got tons done, cleaning out the garage... salvation army pickups... the kitchen is almost fixed (thanks to a water leak)
All in all our progress is moving forward. Hopefully we will have the Nursery done by end of August.

Wallpaper just came in!
This is the wallpaper in brown... our color is blue. Can't wait to see it hanging!
Pregnant Brain
People say that during pregnancy you might lose your mind a bit, forget things etc. I proved that point when I had to search all over the house for Coco's bowl of food.
I filled it last night and brought it up from the garage ( so I thought) and the next morning was surprised that I couldn't find it ANYWHERE....
I gave up, fed her in another bowl and figured I would find it later. I get in my car to go work and ...
THE BOWL OF FOOD WAS IN THE BACK SEAT OF THE CAR!
Seriously... not sure how it got there, what I was thinking or how I forgot THAT one! Either way gave me a good laugh.

Am I asking for trouble?
With onesies like these... I hope Miles doesn't get any ideas. Am I just asking for issues?
First Coat
Last night we started in on the first coat of paint. I forgot how much i hate painting. It did go really fast but still... all those nooks and crannies...
The paint is looking really blue to us but hopefully when we get furniture in there and get the nasty blue carpeting out it will look a bit more manageable.

45 minutes at Home Depot
It took us 45 minutes at Home Depot Monday night to pick up 3 gallons.
Hopefully we only have to do 2 coats to cover up our botched "match" job. We will be tackling that this week.
