It’s hot.
And I’m pregnant.

Summer is here and I’ve spent this week laying low and staying cool. It’s been a pretty uneventful week pregnancy-wise, which I suppose is nice.

Here’s what we’ve been up to:

+ We have a brand new roof on our house (thanks to our amazing friends)!
+ Todd and I have started working on getting the nursery ready. It’s almost time for the fun part – decorating!
+ Iris has been kicking and punching me quite a bit lately. I love it. Keep it coming, lady.
+ I’ve been putting headphones on my belly now that her ears are supposed to be almost fully formed. I swear she dances in there.
+ I’ve started looking into daycare (insert sad face here). This is one of the biggest things I dread. Not only is it incredibly expensive, but I already don’t want to hand off my baby to a stranger everyday. I know that I have to go back to work full time, but I’m hoping we won’t have to use daycare until at least January. There is an option about one minute away from my office that I’ve looked into and I’m hoping to take a tour this week.
+ Today is Todd’s first sort of Father’s Day (even though he doesn’t think it counts). My mom brought him back some fancy steaks from Kansas City, so we’re spending the evening grilling in our backyard. In fact, I’ve got some potatoes and strawberry shortcake to make.

See you next week, if not before!
