Sunday At Home...

Its already December 14th! WOW. Where did the time go? 11 days till Christmas...I feel like I have so much to do, shopping, baking, cleaning, working, sending Christmas cards ( i am so not good at it! So, if you do not receive one from us this year, do not take it personally - not many people will, if any :)).
We put up a beautiful Christmas tree few days ago, though its not as big as we usually get, we still enjoy it. The fun part is going out in the freezing weather and picking one out. Or may be my favorite part is decorating it while cookies are being baked in the oven. Oh, the Christmas time!

Here is the weekend summary:
Friday night:
Everette - basketball game out of town
Eugenia - work till 8pm.
Saturday:
Everette - basketball tournament all day
- nap
Eugenia - ACT testing ( I was giving the test, not taking one:) )
- nap
Sunday:
-basketball tournament day 2
-cleaning
-grocery shopping. I usually go by myself, but today I went with Everette and oh, boy, it was my shortest grocery trip EVER! I should bring him with me more often - he keeps me on track. In fact, I only bought items on my list - that never happens :)
- we decided to take "power nap" for about 20 minutes before Everette would do his homework and I work on some projects around the house. "Power nap" ended up being "Super Power Nap" for about 3 hours. I figured we better enjoy it before our bundle of joy arrives - I hear three hour naps and quiet Sunday afternoons will be the thing of the past.
-Everette is doing homework, while I decided to ditch my projects and watch some TV, blog, and do some online shopping.

Baby is growing and kicking; last night I felt like someone stabbed me in the ribs. I passed my glucose screening test (to check for gestational diabetes)with flying colors, Praise the Lord! That orange drink they give you to drink within five minutes is NOT as bad as people describe. I was ready for something truly horrible, and its not that bad. Bottom line, do not believe everything you hear. I have an ultrasound on Tuesday morning to check for baby's growth; we truly would appreciate your prayers for a healthy baby. We'll keep you updated.

Have a blessed week!
