Just 5 more weeks...Just 5 more weeks

So I've been awake since 5am because apparently Mackenzie has had enough sleep, and now it's time to play games and roll around and kick and hiccup and kick some more and then roll around again. Ugg...this is getting really painful on my bladder :(
Let's see....this weekend was just full of wonderfulness and praises t God!! On Friday, when Joel got paid he got paid for all of his un-used sick time, which helped out A LOT with bills and Christmas shopping and catching up. Then i got news that my yearly raise was approved so hurray for that!! We also discovered a Buffalo Wild Wings that just opened near us so we went and had dinner there together after i got off of work.
Then Yesterday was my baby shower and we got a lot of really cute stuff! Lots of baby clothes, which granted she already had LOTS, but the more the merrier :P. We also got one of those t.v. baby monitor things so i can watch her while she sleeps, which i'm sure will help out this nervous totally paranoid mommy, LOL. We also got 2 different hand made blankets, one for me, one for Kenzie. Uhmm....bedding and curtains finally, and a few other baby accessories like bath time stuff and bottle system stuff.
Last night we went out for dinner with Jami/Ethan and their two kiddos...again to BW3's because they hadn't been yet. Their 2 yr. old was eating his chicken strips and fries with ranch dressing, i mean the boy LOVES ranch dressing apparently...and at the moment i guess none of us were watching him, but i looked over and he had dipped both of his hands into the ranch dressing and was just licking it all off of his fingers. Who needs food to dip into the ranch when you have fingers right? :)

Today we're going to church, and then we are going to Joel's aunt's house for a little family time get together and a 'family baby shower.' I'm excited all over again. Mackenzie's nursery is now totally full of diapers and clothes and picture frames and blankets and all kinds of books and stuffed animals. There is still a lot to get and do, but hopefully over my little Christmas break we can get all of that fun stuff done so we're ready for her arrival.

On Monday i have an ultrasound to check on her growth and make sure everything is going well. YAY! I'm taking a 1/2 day from work and then Joel will meet me at the hospital for that. I just can't wait to see this little girly again. I really hope that they do a 3D u/s since she is so big and all. I wouldn't think you'd be able to see much with a regular one at this point since she is taking up SO much space. But we'll see.

Well i'm going to go and do laundry....Happy weekend to all!
