Weekend Antics

Surprisingly it was a busy weekend! I haven't had one in a while...it was nice to get out of the house though!

I actually went grocery shopping this week on friday. So I could just bum around in the morning and not have to rush out to get the shopping done. of course, I spent way to much! but most of it will last us a while.

I also got my haircut friday night. It is finally short...but I think she cut it TOO short..at least in the front. Luckily its hair and being pregnant it should grow out quickly!

Saturday we went to the inlaws...oh my favorite place(enter sarcasm here). It was for my bil bday and his girlfriend was there, so as always I prepared to be compared to them and basically ignored. My mil actually commented and NOTICED that my hair was cut and short. She even said she liked it! I was in true shock..Avery had a couple spills and I was waiting on the "why did you do that" buy to my surprise my fil just cleaned it up and said it was no big deal.(he spilled a tiny thing of bubbles and the cat's water dish) Lunch was actually delicious and I later had to admit I needed the recipe. keith said it was nice to here something good about his mom...usually her and i dont agree much. I feel bad and I really try not to say to much, but he also needs to know how I feel. then of course it went down hill from there. I have really learned to live with it and just chaulk it up to "that's the way is".

Sunday, Keith asked me to go to church. I had to physically go and not hang out at the neighbors. he said there was a reason and that I would like it. Avery did great during church which surprised us both. At the end of the service they did a wedding vow renewal...that's what he wanted me there for. It was sweet...he told me it was part of my v-day gift. he can be romantic sometimes! He also said that we just renewed them early...we talked about renewing our vows after 10 yrs while watching Jon and Kate one night. We will still do it I'm sure, just need to save up for the trip b/c I said it HAS to be on a beach.(that's where I wanted to get married in the first place).

We also met with the doula, but I will put that in a seperate post as this one is getting long!
we then went to the nursing home and celebrated his grandma's 85th bday. It was bittersweet as it was great to see her and for her to see Avery, but sadly we know there isn't much time left with her. I am going to encourage Keith to go see her more even though our life is extremely busy as it is.

I can totally relate to what you said about your in-laws. It is hard when the in-laws look at things differently and the hubby thinks that's just the way they are!

That's so sweet of keith to do that, plus I'm glad you and your mil got along for the most part the other day

I'm glad that you had a good weekend. Do you have pictures of your new haircut?

Sounds like a busy weekend, but a pretty good one at least!
