Friday night Brandon and I had date night. We went to Ruby Tuesday's and got a Redbox movie. Nice low-key fun 'us' night before Baby Bennett gets here. :)
Saturday mom and I spent the day together. It's been a while since we had a good mother daughter day and it was great! Definitely have to get some more of those scheduled in. And with Bennett almost here, if he's joining us, I'm sure she will won't have a problem penciling us in!
We went and got pedicures. I've had two pedicures my entire life. First one was the day before we got married and the second one was this past Saturday. Mom taught me early on all about at home pedicures, so I've never really needed them! I definitely had one of those 'why don't I do this more often' moments. The chair had massagers in it, the little foot Jacuzzi felt awesome, and the massage. Of course being 30 lbs heavier with back pain, etc. really made the pedicure nice!
We also did some Bennett browsing at Once Upon A Child. I will surely be living in that store. They have SO MUCH baby stuff for such an awesome price! I got these two sweet fall outfits for $5.60. Hello! That's an awesome price. He's just going to spit up and out grow them in no time anyways!
Mom also helped me get back on the sewing band wagon! We made 2 pillows and a little minky dot blanket for his room. They're not perfect, but they're made with love. :) More to come tomorrow with Bennett's Nursery Update Blog!
Over the weekend I also put out some fall decorations. It's that time and I love it! Here's a few of my favorites...
Finished up my nesting list of things to do around the house. Brandon keeps making fun of me, but is supporting me. Like cleaning the carpets for me with mom's carpet shampooer, touching up the paint around the house, cleaning the ceiling fans I can't reach... {Thanks babe!}
When I mop the floors I put Jax and Trig in the bedroom so we don't have their paw prints all over the floors. I went to the bedroom to let them out and saw Jaxon's paws sticking out. I died laughing! It reminded me of this photo I've seen floating around.
After I got everything marked off my list I hit our Jacuzzi tub. Another one of those 'why don't I do this more often' moments. It was sooooo relaxing. Perfect way to spend my last Saturday night before I'm a mom!
From time to time Brandon and I go to Cracker Barrel for breakfast. We figured we would go before we have our new family member joining us. Their multi grain french toast they have right now is awesome! And their earl grey tea is perfect for a sore throat and stuffy head.
Snapped this picture over the weekend. Brandon with our first born. He's so rotten, if it isn't obvious in this picture. All we have to do is say, 'Give me some hugs!' with our arms held out and he runs and puts his arms around our necks. Spoiled. Rotten.
Brandon started the 24 Day Challenge!
He's a brave man starting it during the last week of my pregnancy. ;) Last time he lost 18 lbs, 3 inches in his waist, and gained a ton of energy. He doesn't have as much weight to lose this time, but I know he's excited to cleanse his system and get rebooted. Great timing with a newborn on it's way!
