Thanks Everyone

I just wanted to say a quick thanks to everyone for helping make the past week and the next week to come exciting and hopefully go by quickly. I get to look on the blog everyday and see all the guesses and see who is closest. My guess is really starting to make this all feel real, in just 2 days it will be the 15th! I had the first guess I am thinking because I am so anxious to see her and see what has been growing inside of my stomach for so many months. But then again that means that in possibly 2 days I will have a little baby girl in my arms....that is mine.... holy crap! pretty sure it just hit me.

Finished Coffee Table





Jared finished the coffee table the other night, it has already had a lot of use! It is the perfect height to rest our legs on while we watch TV. We will have to work on filling the compartments and the bottom, I am sure we have plenty of stuff just laying around. I think the dogs may decide it is a good place for their bones.

If you have told me your guess and it is not here I probably just forgot to write it down, and these days if I don't write it down it goes in one ear and out the other. So please tell me again or if you have not put a guess in and want to, do it soon who knows when she will be here! 2 weeks from today is my due date I am 38 weeks today... I can't even believe that before this month is over we will have a little baby in our house! I mean besides Chester.

The Coffee Table Pre Stain




Jared finished sanding the coffee table today and even had time to stain it! I will post some pictures of the stain once he puts it all back together. It looks so good! He also has been brainstorming some ideas for a little rocking chair for our daughter when she gets a bit older.
We have been looking at some ideas for a design for a kitchen table, I want one side to have a stool and be a bit shorter than the one we have now.

Jared's Coffee Table Project




Jared couldn't wait to get out of bed this morning to get started on his coffee table, he has all the parts done he just needs to stain it and make the bottom shelf. Can't wait to see what the final product will look like! I like it already and it is not even done yet. This table will have a storage area just under the top, and you will be able to lift either side to get to the box underneath.

37 Weeks And Counting...

I took this picture this morning...holy cow!!!! really cow! We go to the doctor tomorrow so she can check me and see if she can feel her head, we hope so or else we have to have another ultrasound to see how she is laying in my belly. Fingers crossed she is not sideways or upside down. If anyone would like to enter their guesses on when she will be born and how big she will be we already have a pretty big list of guesses. I had a dream that she was 9 lbs and 4 oz, I really hope that is a dream that doesn't come true!

Jared's Birthday Bundt Cake

Here was my first German chocolate cake ever attempted... in a bundt pan too! I took a short cut and used a box cake for my first attempt. It turned out good, Jared said he would want more frosting on it since it is the best part. Maybe next year I will have to make a real one and do the layers.
