Getting Older

I bought my first ever anti-aging product: Aveeno's Positively Ageless Night Cream. I'm almost 30 now and felt it was about time I get on this anti-aging bandwagon. I used it last night and liked how it felt on my skin and woke up this morning still feeling very moisturized.

Tired: 17 varieties of EVERY product in the health and beauty section...what's the difference between anti-aging and lifting and firming?

Inspired: Target-brand makeup removing wipes in the blue package. Basically the cheapest brand out there but I like them better than every name brand I've tired. And they give me no excuse for not washing my face at night.

Bad Dog!

JB and Leanne brought baby Lucas to Bible study on Wednesday. I got to hold him for quite a while as he slept...I was surprised at how tired my arm got! and he's on only about 8 pounds!
Leanne had to change his diaper and didn't want to stink up our garbage so she just stuffed it down in the diaper bag. We were all hanging out in the basement when I realized we hadn't seen Richard in a while...I went upstairs to investigate when I discovered a very bad dog with a shredded dirty diaper in his mouth. Good thing we registered for a diaper champ!!

Golden Pregnancy Week?

I'm 28 and 28 weeks... is there a pregnancy equivalent to a golden birthday? I'm trying to milk this whole experience for everything I can so I certainly hope so.
We saw the Doctor today and everything looks good...I have two visits two weeks apart and then they start seeing me every week which is just crazy. July 7th seems very far away to me, but I know it's going to be here before I know it.
Leanne and JB had baby Lucas last week--he is so cute and doing very well. It's so weird that they have a baby now...and even weirder that it's going to be us soon.

This weekend we're taking out the mulch in the beds in the front of the house and replacing it with river rock. It felt so good to be outside this afternoon and a small project like this gives relatively instant gratification which is always good. We are contemplating putting on the deck and screened porch before baby comes, but haven't decided yet. I think we both have this somewhat impulsive desire to do as much as we can before baby for fear that we won't ever do anything again after baby. Irrational, but a real emotion nevertheless.

Oh! I almost forgot. Despite a great desire to have my belly button "pop" it isn't cooperating. It's just kind of disappearing. I tried using the breast pump Jake and Mis gave us to suck it out but to no avail. :)
