Rambling Thoughts...

WHY, oh why for the LOVE OF ALL THINGS HOLY, do people slow down on the toll roads when they pass under the cameras? It’s an Ez-Tag lane! You don’t have to slow down! NOT AT ALL, so STOP!!! One of these mornings I’m going to have a stroke, I just know it.
Last night I went and watched Hugh play softball. We used to play together, but after my first trimester it was recommended that I sit out. As much as I miss it, I really enjoy watching him play. Hugh is a naturally gifted athlete which means that he’s pretty dang good at anything he tries. It’s fun to watch someone that’s graceful and makes everything look effortless. Of course, there are times that I find myself wanting to trip him, just to keep it real.
My sister and her husband moved to Tomball last week. I’m VERY excited about this development. He took a very nice job offer there and she’s agreed to be our nanny when I go back to work. This has taken a large burden away from me and Hugh. We had been stressing out about what we were going to do about childcare. We really didn’t want to do daycare but we were having a hard time finding a personal connection for a nanny. This was a big answer to our prayers and we’re both very thankful!
Tobey is getting his stitches out today. We dropped him off over at my in-laws house last night. Our vet is less than a mile from their house and they offered to drop him off in the morning to save Hugh from having a 45 minute drive to work. Cassie was NOT happy that Tobey got to go for a car ride. In fact, we felt so guilty about it that we took her for a ride around the block last night after we got back from softball. Yes…we are THOSE kinds of dog owners.
Hugh and I have been working really hard on the gardens in our front and back yards. Well, I worked really hard the first weekend. This past Sunday my belly was really starting to slow me down. In fact, after working for what felt like a year trimming an evil sago palm I had to sit down and rest. I promptly fell asleep in my chair IN THE FRONT YARD and the only reason I woke up was that I had started to snore. Hugh had just kept right on working. He’s so sweet. I can only imagine what the neighbors were thinking.
We’re hosting a wedding shower for my brother and his fiancé at the end of April. We’re going to do a BBQ theme and I’m really looking forward to it. I’ve started a board on Pinterest that I’m filling up with all sorts of great ideas. Now, if this goes like most things I usually do the board will end up being a collection of all the things that I didn’t get done. We’ll see.
