My Glorious Getaway

 So once again I packed up only my belongings and took off for my annual "mommy only" vacation at my mommy's house.  I was really excited for this one.  I was 32 weeks along at this point and dieing for a little relaxation time, a time out, a tiny little break from my wonderful family.

I planned only a couple things, and of course, my mom and I did a little project while I was there.  Besides that I read and relaxed,and did only what I was in the mood for.  It was INCREDIBLE! 


 Here is my beautiful mom hard at work,  helping me out with my project.  I must say she was on her best behavior...not once did I have to say "give me back my project"! 

 Here is the final result.  I made 6 place mats that had inspiring sayings on them with a few little hot pads with the left over material.  This was such a fun project!  Thank you mom. 

 Of course with all that hard work going on we had to goof off a little with the camera.  (Don't be mad mom that I posted these...you look great, even with your mean face closing in on me!  What were you thinking by the way?) 

 I had better not post any more!  Needless to say, we got a little weird.  But I LOVE it because we laugh so hard.  I love you mom. 

 I hate how I look in the last few months but here I am.  If I just wouldn't swell in the face I would be okay, but o-well it is totally worth transforming a bit to get a beautiful baby at the end.  Woot! Woot!

 I was able to spend a great evening with Shana.  Thank you Shana Jean....love ya!

Here is my adorable little nephew .   He stays the weekends with my parents so I was able to get a little hang out time with him while I was there.  Cute little stinker.  He usually doesn't care whether I am around or not but this time he kinda liked me...it was cute. 

I was also able to have breakfast with my Grandparents and Harlee while there.  It was such a great trip.  Made something with my mom, hung out with family, read a book, ate well...it was great. 

It was also great coming home!  As much as I look forward to leaving for a trip by myself when its time to come home I get so excited.  I was ready to hug Mike and the kids again and by the reception I received when I got home I think they missed me too. 

Michael surprised me with getting a lot done in the basement that week.  Not only was he able to keep the kids alive, he cleaned the house, worked in the basement and made dinner for me.  He truly is a superman to me.
