What's Up?

Yes, I am back to posting sporadically again. Sorry about that, things have been busy. Last week, Mike had the week off, so he was working hard to get some things done around the house, a little painting at my Pap's house, and a small landscaping job. It was nice to have him around more even though we were very busy! 

Last week, Felicia had her music program at school. It was nice that for once, both Mike and I were able to attend together. The kids did a fantastic job! 
After a little while, every time she looked up at Mike, he was taking her picture. She just started rolling her eyes at him!

Saturday, we spent the day with family honoring my Grammy's wishes to have her ashes returned to her childhood home. It's a beautiful piece of land where we have family reunions every year. I was so nervous that the weather was not going to cooperate, but the day before when I was visiting my midwife, she told me that I should not feel bad if it rained. She said that rain on days like that is just the angel's tears. That made me feel better, when I awoke to a very rainy morning. The rain did not last all day though, it turned out to be a beautiful day even though it was very windy and got a bit chilly. It was great to be surrounded by my family again and I hope to see them all again soon!

Mother's Day turned out being a day of rest for me! The week's events finally caught up with me and I was dealing with exhaustion and severe back pain. I spent most of the day in bed. :0(

Oh, by the way, the visit with my midwife went well. Although she gave me the okay to go ahead and have the baby anytime now, I was not dilated one bit. Hopefully, it will be soon! We can't wait to share baby Stella with everyone! 

That's about it for now. This week is sure to be another busy one. The Relay For Life is coming up on Friday and I am a team captain. I am very excited, because this is my very first time being involved with the Relay! I have joked that it may be the day that Stella will arrive, but I have been told that is just not allowed or they will be selling tickets to the birth to earn more money for our team! LOL! I think I'll wait!
