Here is Matti & Molly. Apparently, they both like to be in the same cage. They go in there during the day on their own- and of course, we don't close the door. I guess they are good buddies. Little Molly is doing very well without her parents. She even learned how to go down the steps on the deck, and she seems happy here (I know, the pictures don't show a happy face).
36 WEEKS! Only 3.5 more weeks to go. Thank goodness! I would really like this child out of my body. On Friday at the MD office they said my blood pressure was higher than normal (not high, just higher than mine normally is) so we are keeping an eye on it, but nobody is really concerned. I on the other hand, would love to have her as soon as possible. My belly is getting tighter & tighter and my skin is numb on the outside from so much stretching. I did get sick on Sunday night with nausea and bad stomach pains, but I found out today that a lot of my co-workers were sick over the weekend as well, so it was probably just a bug that went around. No lasting pregnancy aches & pains though, so I can't complain.
Dad did housework non-stop while he was here. He designed and installed a special frame in our bedroom window in order to accommodate an air conditioner- and then put the new AC in, installed a screen door behind our back door and put a doggie door in it, put together the rocker, the crib, and shelving in our closets. He helped rearrange our furniture to better use our space, cleaned our kitchen and got us a new coffee maker that fits under our low cabinets, fixed a leak in our shower, and helped Felix put together our new grill. He worked non-stop and we can never ever thank him enough!!!!!
Meanwhile, while dad was working, Felix was at Brown all day helping during graduation & mom was hard at work washing all the baby clothes and baby shopping. She & Felix went to babies r us earlier in the week while I was at work and got the rest of the necessities, and then over the weekend mom & I prepped everything and had fun organizing all the little baby items. The portable crib is all set up in our bedroom and the nursery is about 75% done. Finally, while Felix was grilling dinner for everyone, mom & I painted the shelves in the closet. Talk about team work!!!!! I just have to say, I am one very lucky girl!
If you know me, you know my FAVORITE thing to do is grill! Well...... I've never actually GRILLED, my favorite thing to do is EAT grilled food! Felix made the best cheeseburgers I have ever had! They tasted like the were straight from a restaurant, they were so good. I can't wait till next time!
