Just kidding Mom and Dad!!

Friday after work, Chris and I had to head to the hospital after I called the dr. with a concern. We thought they'd see me and we'd be on our way...WRONG!!! They hooked me up to the monitors (Chris thought they were cool and had to get them in a picture) and discovered I was having contractions every 2-3 minutes. They decided to admit me because they thought I was in early labor. Chris headed home and got everything we had packed. After a 13 hour "practice session" we were sent home yesterday morning at 6:45. The contractions weren't coming as frequently and weren't productive. I am on bedrest until at least Monday when I go back to the dr. I was thankful to be out of that horrid bed and sleep in my own!

Baby Shower

Mom and Kaitlin had a baby shower for me today. My college roommate Carrie came down and stayed the night with Chris and I. My friend Jenny from the the "pool days" also came. I haven't seen her since Chris and I got married! It was fun to see everyone and we appreciate all the wonderful gifts!!

My cousin, Jeri, made this snuggly quilt for Baby P. Thanks Jeri, we love it!

More for Baby P

We finally found a bookshelf for Baby P's room that matched the rest of the furniature. Chris put it together on Sunday and I quickly filled some space with books we've gotten.

Golf Outing

Last weekend Chris, his friend, John, and Dad participated in the Italian American golf outing. Chris came out dressed in a shirt that belonged to my Uncle Carlo. I just shook my head and told him to have fun. The guys were the worst team on the course and got a Viagra soap pump as a prize. They all seemed to have fun though!

Gone Fishing

Chris and Dad went fishing on Powers Lake on Saturday and Sunday. Chris caught a couple Northern, perch, bluegill, and this bass. All of the fish were too small or too few to keep. They had fun out on the S.S. Minnow though.

The Best Signs of Fall

Yesterday Chris went fishing with dad, so I went to school to finish lesson plans and do some other work. After I was done I decided to make the first of many trips to Brightonwoods Apple Orchard. They make the best apple cider!! Going there reminds me of all the yummy fall treats.

Yummy apple cider
Ooey Gooey Caramel Apples

Juicy Honeycrisp Apples

More???

Friday night after work, Chris decided he wanted to tear the tile out of the entryway so it could be retiled to match the fireplace. I think he's beginning to live for home projects, dust, and dirt!
