Busy Week!

What are you all up to this week?
Last weekend we decided to do a trial run camping with the girls in the backyard. Derrick has been wanting to take them, but we weren't sure if they'd freak out when it came down to sleeping in the woods at night. This way, if they did, we could easily run inside instead of packing up camp at 2am in the dark!!! We roasted smores in our fire pit and had a great time! The girls slept all night (with about 8 blankets and sleeping bags thrown on top of them) and poor D froze outside with them while I slept on the couch. Our air mattress sprung a leak somewhere and we slowly started feeling our hips sinking into the hard ground and it was too much for this pregnant woman to deal with! I am excited for the days to really camp though!

Saturday we took the girls to see the movie, "Up" at the theatre. It was alright. I thought the idea was cute, the old man was adorable. The scary dogs chasing them and shots being fired,etc. were a bit much for Val but they sat through it and seemed to like it over all. It was great for our rainy Saturday morning!

Sunday we planted some flowers and did some much needed yard work. We also attended our new "home" church for the second time and definitely want to stay there, what a relief! I hate church shopping, and we're excited to make new friends. Valerie will be old enough to go to VBS this year, which will also give me a break in 2 weeks!

Not much new to report as far as baby Madeline goes. Tmrw I have another appt at 35 weeks.. I am going weekly now just to make sure I don't develop pre-eclampsia again or have complications. Tomorrow evening we tour the hospital/OB area and pre register. The girls both had physicals today, Val's for pre-K. They both had to have shots, so we picked up some comfort food/aka mcD's & milkshakes and are about to all go take a nap.

Enjoy your week!
