Twenty nine weeks today
Funny story: In Tucson on Saturday morning at my college burrito breakfast for Homecoming I was waiting in line to check out with the basket of UA goodies I bought in the silent auction for my little bambino. A female professor I know asked me when I was due. I said, "January, almost 29 weeks now." And she said, "Wow, counting it down huh?" Umm, excuse me?! Wouldn't I be crazy and half stupid if I didn't know how many weeks I was?! Granted, she's never had kids so I'll cut her some slack on that but come on. If I asked a pregnant woman how far a long she was and she didn't know, I would have some serious concerns. How can you not know how many weeks/months you are?

Grill Grand Master
That's my husband. Seriously folks, I don't want to brag but I will - he is the best. He whipped up his secret family recipe for marinade {he really calls it that}and chopped up a couple bell peppers, an onion and these monster shrimp we bought at Frys.
Phenomenal. And how do you feel about our kabob wires? My sister gave to us for Christmas or something and we finally busted out with making some kabobs. I guess they're called Fire Wire and are flexible stainless steel and they were super easy to use. I found some on Amazon here if you're looking for some Christmas ideas. Which, I will be posting some holiday shopping ideas tomorrow!

Model home sale
I bought a "grown up" desk on Saturday. Went to my first model home sale with my SIL and it was a success! Now, I just need to tackle the office, get it organized and ready to move the pieces in from the garage. I will post pictures after I get it settled!

Grandma
My wonderful and lovely grandmother whom I adore will be flying in next Friday for 3 months! I cannot wait for her arrival. I can't wait to take her on some excursions around the state. We had so much fun on my trip to see her in August in Montana, I'm looking forward to more quality time with her. {Also, I'm so glad she won't have to endure another Montana winter...those things seem brutal!}

Have a wonderful week and be sure to check in tomorrow for my Christmas gift idea post!

Oh yummy! We won't be doing anymore grilling until probably next year. It is snowing as I type this :( I am so not ready for winter!

Can't wait to see your post tomorrow. I am excited about Thanksgiving and Christmas though :)

i've never been to a model home sale. i read another blog that picked up a fabulous coffee table for a great price. apparently this is something i should look into! how do you find out about those sales?

Jennifer said...

Umm, yeah, I agree about the counting down the days thing. Wow, some people!

I was wondering what to get my brother and sis-in-law for Christmas! That may be just the ticket! Lol!

Those kabobs look SO STINKING GOOD!!! Drooling here this morning.

I know several ladies who had no clue how many weeks they were until they hit 17/20 weeks. I always thought it was SO weird. I'd ask and they'd be like "Ummm, I forget..."

WHAT???
