Monster Trucks, Pump It Up, and Dr's Appt.

We had a pretty busy weekend... well at least compared to how easy we have been trying to take it lately. This past weekend was all about B :) We had made a last minute decision the previous Sunday to purchase tickets to the Monster Jams event that was set to be at Robert's Stadium. Our little man sure loves his monster trucks and has been playing Monster Jam on the wii quite a bit. We also want to make sure he has a ton of fun these last few weeks before C arrives since we probably won't be doing a whole lot afterward for awhile.



Anyway, Friday evening I picked up B from my mom's where he stayed for his second snow day and we headed home to get ready. When Ryan got home and got ready we left for Evansville. We ate supper at Red Robin and then headed over to the stadium.

He had ear plugs, but this is how he looked all night! He loved it, despite how loud it was (and it was loud!).
What little boy wouldn't love that??!!
Excuse me in this picture, lol. I was telling Ryan not to get me in the picture-- obviously he didn't listen! haha! Brycen had to have this monster truck hat and cotten candy :)

The event lasted about 2 hours and didn't start 'til 8:30 our time. It was close to midnight when we got home and I was WORN OUT! We had a fun evening though!

Saturday morning we slept in thankfully. I did some laundry and we were just around the house hanging out in the morning. We then got ready and headed to Evansville again for B's friend Joey's 5th birthday party at Pump It Up (or Pump It Ups as B says!) :)

B and his buddy Joey!

Brycen had a blast at Pump It Up. He had been there once before for a field trip last year and he remembered it being fun, but I think he had even more fun this time! He thinks he needs to have his party there next year! It was a Colt's theme party and really cute! The party lasted a couple hours and then we were going to go eat supper at Red Lobster (our favorite!), but at 4:30 evansville time, 5:30 our time, there was already an hour wait and we didn't feel like waiting so we just went to Applebee's. It was still good (and we had a gift card!). :) We got home earlier Saturday night than the previous night. We were home by 8pm and I took a bath and went to bed!

Sunday we were just around the house all day hanging out. We went to my parents for supper. It was kind of sad b/c my brother had been home from college for almost a month and he had to leave that evening to go back to school. He had supper w/ us and then hung out for the evening though so that was nice.

Monday was a busy day at work for me with court hearings, but it made the day go fast! That evening my mom and I hosted an Inspiranza jewelry party at my house. My BFF, Vanessa just started selling it on the side. It is a Christian based company and part of the proceeds go to an orphanage. I had the party to help her out... I'm not much of a jewelry person, but I really love the stuff! Good prices too! Anyway, our party went good, even though not many guests showed up we had a few (that were fun to visit with!) and we had quite a few outside orders. I am glad to be helping Vanessa out. She is getting ready to pop out her baby boy any day and is making some extra cash for her unpaid maternity leave.

Yesterday was a busy day at work again... my whole January is actually pretty busy b/c I've crammed in a lot of extra hearings since I am getting ready to be off for 3 months (which I am SO excited about). I'm thankful for the busyness of it though b/c it makes the days go faster and then we're that much closer to meeting C. My mom was going to my appt. with me yesterday b/c it was an earlier appt. and Ryan had to install... she was getting her vehicle serviced at the Toyota place in Evansville anyway so it worked out fine. Ryan will be able to go to the rest of my appointments with me though! We're getting so close. B and my mom and I went to Evansville and dropped off her vehicle and then went to the Dr. I had another great appt. My BP was 110/70, I hadn't gained any weight this week, and C's heart rate was 156. Everything is just going so smooth. I have been having quite a few contractions, I am anxious to see how far I make it. She said that if everything is going as good as it is now she will take me at 39 weeks and she does scheduled c-sections on Wednesdays so that would be Feb. 24th I think. I kind of doubt I make it that far anyway, just b/c I went into labor with B at 38 (water broke)... but I guess we will see! If it is that day then we have 6 weeks from today!

After my appointment we met up w/ my brother at Texas Roadhouse for supper. He had forgotten some stuff at home and needed us to bring it to him... lol!

B and Joseph. They are goobers :)

Today B and I are just hanging out at home. I am thankful to not have a need to leave the house or get out of my pj's! Ryan is in KY installing today so hopefully me (and C) behave. The last time he went there is the day I had to go to the hospital! lol. Hopefully, he won't be too late tonight. The rest of our week shouldn't be busy and I am glad about that. My grandma cleaned my house for me on Friday and then surprised me and did all my laundry yesterday so I can just hang out and rest on my day off! yay! :)
