Weekends are F-U-N

This weekend was a busy one and my body felt it. I woke up this morning feeling so sore and I can tell I just did too much. At 30 weeks pregnant tomorrow (31 if you want to use the doctors measurement that I am 1 week bigger), you would think there would be some slowing down, but slowing down is for the old :) There is just too much to get done before this baby comes.

Saturday was a day of all sorts of fun. It started with the first birthday of this cutie...Mr. Lofton. It was so fun getting together with all our friends and see all the kids interact because they are now getting to that age where they don't just sit and stare...they actually play together!

After having so much fun at the birthday party, I parted ways with my boys and headed down to Dodge Center to attend a fundraiser for an awesome friend! Lauren and her husband Jesse are a couple I adore and will do whatever to support them to achieve their goal of starting a family of their own. I had lots of fun, won 1 of my silent auction items, purchased some headbands from the store just in case we have a girl and ate delicious pizza and fat Linda bars :)

Downstairs. So beautiful! I loved it!!!!

After hanging out for a bit, I then headed over to my bestie's home to meet the newest addition to her family, Crosby James. He was born on 5/6 and is the first boy for the couple (they have 3 girls). I forget how small newborns are so holding him felt so nerve wrecking because he was so small compared to my 30lb almost 2 year old. 

Rylee is one proud big sister!!!

I finally got home around 10 and hit the sack soon after. Sunday I knew I wanted to get lots of stuff done around the house. The list of things to get done before baby #2 arrives is getting smaller, but will continue to only get smaller if we actually get stuff done. First Turner and I went to church while Tate ran to work for a bit and then I had him stop at Ikea to pick up a piece of furniture for the nursery. After I put Turner down for nap, I started priming the closet doors that were a golden oak for our entry way and priming trim pieces. It was a day of off and on rain so it was perfect to stay inside and get things done. Tate caulked the upstairs window and after Turner woke up, we did more cleaning of the office since that will become Turner's room in a couple weeks. Turner helps us my playing with the closet doors (he's obsessed with doors) and moving items around that we asked of him (he's at the age where he loves helping us). 

After Turner went to bed...I got to painting the first coat on the closet doors and trim and Tate took Mya for a run. I got the first coat all done by 9:15 and I decided instead of hitting up the gym in the morning, I was going to wake up and paint instead because I really want to get it done. So I was up at 5:30 painting the 2nd coat on the doors and some trim. I didn't get the 2nd coat all done so I will be doing the rest tonight after Turner goes to bed. 

And this is why my weekend was F-U-N....time spent with my family and friends and getting house stuff done....total win win!!!
