Spring Break

Ray and I are excited to finally be on Spring Break - although he still has practice. We'd planned to get the nursery done this week. Ray's friend, Cole, is going to come on Thursday and help out with getting the Wainscoting (sp?) put on. Ray's already done the painting, so then we'll be able to put the crib together and start getting things up on the walls. So exciting!

We're also lucky to have this week off because we can be home for the plumber to come. Our master shower has been acting up for some time now. For a while, the water would get cold really fast. Ray and his Uncle Kevin tried fixing a part and thought it was all ready to go. Well, Ray went to try it out on Sunday and found that there's no water coming out of the head now. Augh! So luckily the plumber could come today (sometime between 10 and 2...it's 1:10 now and he hasn't come). It'll be nice to be able to shower in our room again and not have to use the tiny guest shower downstairs. The water is nice and warm, but for me being 7 months pregnant, it's a little tight.

I've finally gotten some belly pictures uploaded to share, along with a picture of the nursery so far. The green is a little brighter than I had thought, but I think it'll look good and we'll get used to it. It's hard to believe we'll have a baby in there in about 2 1/2 months!

And bigger...


And finally, Week 28


The nursery - in progress

I had a wonderful 31st birthday. The best part of the day was having my niece McKenna call and leave me a message singing Happy Birthday! What a beautiful voice! Ray and I went to Disneyland and this year they are letting people in free for their birthdays. Well, since we already have passes, we got a gift card worth the price of admission instead. We went shopping and bought Noober several cute outfits, along with an adorable stuffed Eeyore. The next day, we went with Sue to Disneyland for her birthday. I was excited to be able to find out that I am able to go on Pirates of the Caribbean! Sue enjoying being there since her pass had expired last July and was excited to find out that since she's a southern California resident, she gets to go back and go to California Adventure for free! I'm excited to go with her! It was a fun, but long day. I was proud of myself (and Ray) for lasting as long as we did. Here are some pictures...


I'll post some more pictures once we're done with the nursery and have the house back to normal.

  1. That's awesome that you guys got a gift certificate! Is it weird that I'm getting a hankering for a Disney trip?

  3. You look great, Cath. I like that you are wearing the exact same outfit (pjs?) in each picture. The green looks good in the nursery and I am sure it will be perfect. The b-day song was my mom's idea. I had no idea she had done it until you posted a comment. I miss Disneyland. Can't wait to see you in July and meet your little one!
