A Post About A Bunch of Random Stuff

Did anyone else have an expected weekend full of beautiful weather?

The meteorologist have been butchering the Seattle forecast lately, but I don't mind when we get blue skies instead of rain, rain and more rain. Here's 5 things that made this weekend the J-A-M!!!

• After 2 1/2 months of no cable {we dumped Comcast back in January}, Jody decided he couldn't live any longer without his sports fix and we signed up for the Dish. They gave us a great deal, Jody doesn't have to search for illegal sports feeds on the interweb and baby boy got his Disney back.....all is right with the world. I do feel very 1990's with a satellite dish on the house, but get a load of those blue skies......Seattle in March!!

• Taking advantage of the nice weather, Jody & I took out some planter beds and a large bush in our front yard. I did a whole post on our house blog......check it our HERE. I put down the grass seed, in the front yard, this afternoon and can't wait to see what it looks like in a few weeks. We had a lot of success with seeding in the back after we put up the new fence. Here's a picture of what it looked like back in September and what it looks like now.

• Spending time at the park was another perk of the dry weather. Our neighborhood is peppered with them and we tried a new one out with a huge slide. My fearless little boy had a blast......we went down a couple times as well :) Pure joy I tell ya!

• I hit the 30 week mark of my pregnancy, which puts us 9 short weeks away from meeting baby Grace. I haven't mentioned this yet, but during my 20 week ultrasound they discovered that I had marginal cord insertion......which means Grace's umbilical cord is not attached in the middle of the placenta. There is a small risk that, as she gets bigger, this placement will not allow her to get enough nutrients inside my body and she will need to be delivered early. I will know more when I have another ultrasound {and stress test} at 36 weeks but my Dr. seemed hopeful that she would make it to 39 weeks. If you don't mind......I could use some prayers. Thanks!

• We got Krispy Kreme donuts after church. This is a becoming a normal part of our Sunday afternoon......rain or shine.

Hope everyone has a wonderful week!
