5 June 2012

So Dave left the Friday of Memorial Day weekend for Canada for his twin sister Katherine's wedding. We drove the back roads to get to the airport (we need a new car really bad) and I said goodbye to my husband for a little over a week!!! After driving home and letting Comet out of his cage for a little bit to get some stretching/exercise time in I locked him back up so I could go to dinner at a family in our new ward's house. They were so nice and new I would be all alone and invited me, as well as the missionaries, and their sister-in-law and her husband (they're expecting too around the same time as us). It was nice to get to know all of them and have some yummy food.
Saturday I spent just hanging out in the apartment pretty much most of that day except I ran to Target and Khol's in hopes of finding some maternity clothes... I ended up with one shirt out of the whole thing and a couple of things for the baby.
Sunday I had to say the closing prayer in sacrament... Not that a prayer can be wrong or bad, but if it could I think mine would've been pretty close. Luckily Grandma Maria was on her way to get me for a few days to visit so I didn't have to stick around all of church after my "graceful" prayer. I came home and got all packed up and made sure Comet got lots of good fun outside of the cage time before he'd have to be back in his cage for a trip to Grandma's (almost 2 hours away). Grandma came and we had lunch, packed up the car and headed back to her house. I stayed with her until Tuesday and was so glad she had driven all the way out to get me and save me from a long week all by myself. At Grandma's we watched a bunch of girly movies (it was nice to have someone to watch them with), ate lots of fun foods, went shopping for maternity clothes (much better success!), and just hung out and chatted.

 

 
After she dropped me off on Tuesday I headed to the grocery store because we were in need of food supplies! I also finished my Peter Pan painting which was great.
On Wednesday I ran a few more errands.
Thursday I did my glucose test... bleh! Here's to still hoping I'm not diabetic while pregnant. I still have till the end of the month to find out from my Dr. Tommy also got his mission call that day and I was able to watch via Skype (love modern technologies). I'm so excited for him! He'll be serving in the Independence, Missouri mission and leaves for the MTC at the end of July.


Friday was a long boring day.
On Saturday Tommy flew in. We stopped by Home Depot and picked up supplies for the project he's going to be helping me with while staying here, went to Safeway for a few little things I still needed for the next weeks dinners, and got Red Robin to-go. We just hung out, chatted, watched Fraiser, and played games. It was nice to finally have someone to hang out with again.
Sunday we went to church and then after church we came home, took a few pictures and watched "What Dreams May Come" which he hadn't ever seen before and I think it's a great movie. Then we waited.... waited.... waited until Dave finally flew in and we picked him up around 12:30 that night! I was so so tired by the time we got home but was able to stay up and chat with my honey for a little bit.
