This week did go by....

Good morning, all :)

Well, as much as I thought this week would go by slowly - it did end up going by pretty fast! I can't believe today is Friday! It has helped a bunch though that John was here - it's been fun to see him and the time is flying!

Baby is moving less that it used to - although Ian's probably right when he says that the baby is just running out of room! I feel little kicks and stuff still though, and there are still little ripples, so that gives me a little piece of mind that our little girl or boy is okay :)

John has been awesome helping us to get our house a little more ready! Ian had about 12 tons of gravel dumped in some dirt by our driveway (in hopes to make our driveway bigger and ready for baby visitors!) and John probably shoveled out 4-6 tons of it - which is a whole bunch! I tried to even do a little raking or shoveling - and it was tough! (I think I did about 1 shovel worth) I mean, not even snow shoveling, but rock! Whew, Ian helped a little when he got home from work and he did a little before John came to visit - but John did so much! (He also had to dig out by the border of the driveway, which was rocky and very hard!)

Then we had a fire last night with our burn pile - roasted hot dogs and made s'mores - so that was awesome as well - it's been a great couple of days!

Here are some pictures of John's adventures down in Peoria - we love John! And he's just awesome for helping :)

Today's plan - John wants to help some more around the house with our garden, and then we're going out for Mexican and Uncle Bob's ice cream tonight!

Have a great Friday everyone!
Love
Laura
