Just an update...

Friday was a long day! I had a headache most all day and evening long. Ryan worked (on our cabinets, but at the shop) until 8pm so he didn't get home until 8:30pm. B and I went to eat w/ my parents for supper and then I went home and had to get all the stuff cleaned out of my cabinets. I'm thankful for my pretty large dining room now b/c all my stuff out of cabinets is somewhat organized in the dining room and not a huge mess all over the place (just contained to those two rooms).

Saturday we got up bright and early and made our way to B's soccer game. He played goalie this week, he was not a huge fan of that position (as you can probably tell by the picture!).

B and his buddy Pilar, you never know what these two will be up to on the soccer field, but they are always cracking me up!

After the game Ryan headed to the shop to work on our cabinets some more and B and I made an unplanned trip to Wal-Mart and Mi Pueblo (YUM) w/ my mom. After we got back from Washington we went straight w/ my mom to my cousins' birthday party. They are sisters and their birthdays are Sept. 19 & 20th! B and Ashlyn are 3 months apart and they are great friends! He had a lot of fun playing outside w/ them. After we left there we went home to change clothes and then we went to my Great Uncle Jim's 80th Birthday Open House! After that we went home to rest for a couple of hours and then headed to my Aunt Lisa's for supper w/ the family (chili and veggie soups and left over sandwiches from Uncle Jim's Birthday party!). Yum! We enjoyed some good food and great times visiting w/ family, as always. We got home and Ryan had all the upper cabinets torn out and the place was A MESS! The walls were sooo nasty behind where the cabinets had been and it made me feel gross (okay, I admit it is still making me feel gross!). I asked Ryan if I could clean it and he said it is no use to try that's just how it is, so I went to bed! haha.

Yesterday afternoon we had to go to Lowe's to sign paperwork for our carpet. They are supposed to call today with a date to install it! We also had to pick up a new sink, facet, and hood range thingy for our kitchen! Fun stuff! I got the new paint for the kitchen, but I still have to pick the paint up for the front living room (did I mention we were painting too?). I know what color I'm getting, I just have to get it... I had to get the name of it today from my co-worker!

We came home and relaxed and were just lazy all evening. It was nice! Hopefully, Ryan will be able to spray the upper cabinets tonight (he finished all the doors on Saturday!). After those are finished he will tear out the lower cabinets. I'm looking forward to this b/c that means getting rid of the hideous counter top! I told Ryan last night I just can't even imagine what it will look like with the new stuff!

Brycen was goofing off last night and I just had to take a picture... Seriously, if this doesn't at least make you smile I doubt anything will! You just never know how you'll find him!

Tonight my mom is making Taco Soup (I've been craving it) for us since my kitchen is out of order! B and I will probably go there to eat it and take Ryan home his since he'll probably be a busy bee! Although, Ryan did promise B he could help paint the boxes tonight, we'll see how that goes!

Oh yes, and in baby news, we find out ONE week from today if it's a boy or girl (although, I really know it's a boy!). My appt. is at 9am our time so at least I won't have to wait all day to find out! I've been feeling baby move a little bit off and on (like a fish in my belly), but yesterday was a first, we were all feeling my belly (me, ryan, and b) and you could feel it a little from the outside. When we took our hands off my belly the baby "jumped" so hard you could see it on my lower belly! It was sooooo reassuring to me! It did it like 3 more times and Ryan saw it too! I was so pumped! At this point I def. need little reassurances like that...
