Well, it has been awhile since my last blog but it seems like we've been so busy lately! It was so much fun to go over to the coast and see everyone, be at Brynne's shower, and then go get makeovers and dress shopping. :) I'm very relieved that we found a maternity dress that will work out.
It has suddenly decided that it will be spring for a couple days. The sun is shining, birds are singing and not a cloud in sight. Yesterday I spent a couple hours pruning and clearing out our front garden. Man, that thing was a mess. You can tell someone who lived here at one time put a lot of time and love into it, but the people who lived here before us, at least, did not. Over 3/4 of the rose bush was dead and needed to be pruned out so that the healthy stuff could grow, while those needed to be severely pruned down just so it could support it's own weight. The other bushes were over-grown and wild while the ground was covered in several inches of old leaves and pine needles - smothering some ground covering plants. Needless to say it looks MUCH better out there now, I filled up an entire giant garbage can with debris, and my back was killing me last night. It's good to have it done. :)
Tim was so sweet while I was gone. I came home to not only a clean house, a happy dog AND a happy husband, but he had also washed and set up our new crib! He put the freshly washed sheet and bedding set that we bought on it and everything. It was precious. :) He also took the time to set up the treadmill for me with our tv right in front of it so it was ready to be used. I felt so loved. :)
Well I better get on with the day and rotate laundry. TTYL.

Sounds like Tim is getting in the nesting mood. How neat is that?
It was so good to get to see you and hug you and baby this last weekend. Hope to do that again soon. Love you, Holly Girl!

Love you,
