Nesting...
I think I am nesting in anticipation of the new babies arrival. Yesterday I cleaned the whole house and did laundry. Usually, I can only do a little bit but yesterday I had a ton of energy. Then when Richard got home he took Evelyn for a bike ride while I made a nice dinner without interuptions. It was great. I turned up the music danced, sang and cooked.
After dinner, I did the dishes and then cleaned out the closets in Evelyn's and the new babies room. By the end of all this I was tired but felt very accomplished. Richard even commented on how nice it was to come home to a clean house and him not have to do much.
On another note: Sandy had to go to the Vet on Monday because she was limping and her front right paw was bleeding. They found a wart like cluster on her paw so she is on antibotics and hopefully that will help. If it doesn't, she may need surgery to remove it. Hopefully that won't be neccessary.
Here are a couple of pictures of Evelyn:

Weekend Update
Saturday, Richard and I had our hospital tour at Mercy General where I will be delivering this time. It is nice but a little outdated. We at least now know where to go when the time comes. The way they make up for having to share a room is a 7 course meal after delivery. It can include Filet Mignon, dessert, wine and other yummy things. I am very much looking forward to this meal. I deserve it after all that work. :0)
We met another couple that had a daughter born on Evelyn's birthday and is due the day before me. Crazy! I guess we are not the only people wanting them close in age.
Saturday night we went to Lavon's for a Halloween meal. Evelyn dressed up as an Olvera St. Mexican Girl (too bad she is sooo white). She had her dress and maracas and looked cute. It was a good time and she even got to enjoy a cookie for dessert. She loved it. Maybe that is why she was talking in her crib for a while after going to bed. :0)
Sunday, Evelyn and I went to a baby shower for a dear friend. We had a great time and Evelyn was wonderful. She did so well with just a short nap. She was cute as a button and very well behaved. I even got a couple of comments on how well behaved she is and how well she listens. I guess we are doing something right for now.
Other than that we just took it easy and got some things done around the house. It was a nice and pleasant weekend. I hope everyone had a great weekend as well. I will post more pictures soon.

Crazy
Sorry I have not posted lately, things have been very crazy. Evelyn and I got back from a week in So. Cal for my brother's wedding. It was a great time and we were able to spend some good time with Yaya and grandpa. I am glad that we were able to go and it worked out really well.
The wedding was wonderful and beautiful. I have about 250 pictures but have to go through and post some of them. There are some good shots in there. I can't believe my little brother is married and not living at home anymore. Hard to believe. Evelyn did great during the wedding and reception. She was passed around like candy on Halloween and didn't care. It was great because I didn't have to hold her much and people got to spend some good time with her. The downside is now she is sick with a cold. We ran her pretty hard last week with few naps and long days. Hopefully she will be back to her normal self soon.
Other than that, I had a dr. appt. on Monday and everything is good. Only 6 weeks left to go believe it or not. We are starting to prep here to get ready for the new arrival. Evelyn is in her new room and is doing good in there (other than being sick). I will post pictures of her new room soon. I LOVE it, hopefully she does too.
That's the quick update (heehee). I will post pictures soon or at least a link to pictures soon.

Dr. Appointment Update
I had a dr. appointment on Tuesday and was lucky enough to have Richard accompany me. Everything went well and is on schedule. I asked the position of the baby just so I knew what I was feeling where, I know that the position can still change. He decided that the best way to know for sure was an ultrasound so he gave us one right then and there. It was great to see the baby again since it has been since our 20 week ultrasound. The baby is measuring right on target and the dr. seems to think that the weight will be similiar to Evelyn's at birth which was 7lb. 11 oz. That makes me think even more that it is a girl since boys are usually bigger. We shall see in about 8-10 weeks.
After we went to dinner with some friends that also had a dr. appointment in the afternoon. They have a little boy a few months older than Evelyn so it worked out great. It is always nice hanging out with other families. I go back in about 3 weeks for another visit. I am now going in every 2 weeks (this time is it 3 because my brothers getting married). It is getting closer and starting to get a little more freaked out about having 2.
Have a goodnight.
