It was great to get away Thursday, well after the whole being terribly nervous part. In addition to lunch, I had Ned run in Hallmark to get a recordable storybook for Avery. I haven't done it yet, but I thought Under the Same Moon would be a good one for when I'm in the hospital.
I did some reading myself this week. I reread/finished reading What Women Fear, which had been on my Kindle forever. I started it and never finished. I read Heaven is for Real Saturday afternoon. I know I'm very behind on that, but our Sunday school class is getting ready to do the DVD series. I also read the January and February sections in The Happiness Project. My goal last year was to read 12 books, and I think I came pretty close. This year will be even more chaotic I'm sure, so I may get my 12 read in the first few months of the year. I have kind of a random list on my Kindle of things to read, but hopefully they'll all be good. Last year I got ideas from Blue-Eyed Bride, but she hasn't done her reading list this year.
The last few weekends have been long, and this one seemed especially so. Ned needs to be running in a million directions, so Avery is either at my parents' or with him. This weekend she stayed there Saturday night because he had his installation banquet for the fire department. She left mid-morning Saturday, and Ned spent the afternoon getting ready for the banquet and was there most of the night. There are no plans next weekend other than the craziness that's our life, so I'm hoping to enjoy the weekend a little more.
We did have some fun Saturday morning.
Lolli buys festive pajamas.
After 2 waffles and part of a biscuit, Avery needed a mid-morning banana snack.
It was a happy day when I realized last year's Valentine's and St. Patrick's Day shirts still fit. One less thing for me to coordinate and spend on right now.

Under the Same Moon sounds like a cute book idea for Avery! And don't you just love The Happiness Project! Still trying to read up on February along with our main book this month! But who has time to read with little ones????
Love the new pics and getting a peek at Sam! You are going to be extremely busy, aren't you? It sounds like the house will be ready and the baby will be here around the same time. Good luck to you with all that whirlwind activity. Avery looks cute as a button, as usual. :)
