Saturday

I like Saturdays.  Sometimes on Saturdays, I get to sleep in.  This was one of those Saturdays.  Ahhhhh…

So it was a little while before we managed to get dressed and out the door for our errands, but we did!

First we hit Target and picked up a Thermos cup (among other things) for Joanna’s water at school.  We were also hoping to go ahead and get our new sit-in-stand/double stroller, but they didn’t have it in.  Oh well; we have time! 

Then we hit “chic-a-lay” because everyone was grumpy and it didn’t make sense to drive all the way home to eat when we still had shopping in the big town of Atascocita to do.

We love Chic-fil-a.  :)

Matt and Joanna in deep conversation:

Smiley girl:

And a very messy girl!  She does love her sauce.  :)

Then we hit Lowe’s for some odds and ends.

We’d hoped to hit the grocery store, but it just didn’t happen.  I over did it with the little we did do.  It’s sad that walking around a couple of (admittedly large) stores is all I can manage.  I actually had to sit down on a curb in the parking lot and wait for Matt to come get me at Lowe’s!  We were farther from the car that I’d thought.  My back essentially clenched up, and I couldn’t keep walking.  Have I mentioned that I’m finding all the Braxton Hicks contractions annoying?  Because I am.  And frankly, I’m tired of all the trips to the potty.  Okay, done complaining now!  I really do love being pregnant, and I’m feeling overall very good and very happy to be growing a person!

Anyway so we came home, and (after a little back-rub to get me on my feet) we got some chores done and rest time for all the girls.  Natalie’s the only one who actually slept, but it’s something!

At some point I caught this cutie reading the bible in our new mudroom.  It was out there so we’d remember to bring it back to the library.

I worked pretty hard after dinner, so I’m looking forward to an evening of watching Fringe on DVD with Matt and hopefully getting a big ‘ol stinkin’ back rub!
