Weekend in Review (plus a day or two)

On Thursday, Jake's football team had a scrimmage. Jake's team is made up of K & 1st graders all under 70 pounds. The team they were practicing against was 2nd & 3rd graders under 80 pounds. We of course got beat, but held our own. (When the regular season starts, we will only play other K/1st grade teams.) Watching these little kids run around in football uniforms is hilarious. 

Jake is #44. (No, he is not that tiny! #50 for us is our largest player)

Jake plays center, so you can't see him, but he is the one snapping the ball to the quarterback.

Jake & I had the whole weekend to ourselves (Robbie was still away traveling.) Friday night, we had dinner with Mimi & Granddad and then Saturday morning, Jake had football weigh-in. (They have to make sure all of the kids in Jake's division are 70 pounds or less.) We were there for an hour to do something that basically took 5 seconds. And parents had to wait outside, so we were standing in the hot sun for an hour. Fun times.  
Afterwards, we ran some errands and then came home. I promised Jake that I'd watch a movie with him. We both feel asleep 5 minutes into the movie (around 5:00). Jake ended up not waking up until Sunday morning. He was one tired little boy!

On Sunday, daddy came home. YEAH! (Which he is back traveling this week, but after he gets home this week, no more travel for a while!) I finished up the last piece of furniture for the nursery. Everything is almost complete. We just have to hang the curtains and things on the walls. Once things are hung, I'll do a blog post on the nursery. 

 On Monday, I had my last doctor's appointment. Which also means my last NST. 
No more monitors like this at doctor's appointments

And no more contraptions hooked up to my belly! 
Robbie gets back into town Thursday and Jake has a jamboree football game Thursday night. Also my mom is coming Thursday & Friday to learn our routine, since she'll hold down the fort & Jake while we are at the hospital next week. We have a special weekend planned to do lots of fun things with Jake and then on Tuesday, we finally meet baby sister. Can't believe we are only 6 days away!
