and deeeeeep breath

this weekend was a very long one.

saturday morning started out with stephen heading to little league evaluations and harry waking up extra early (and extra cranky).

by 10 i HAD to get out of the house. my mom and i went to raleigh to look for some fabric. i forget the name of the store, but it was a little quilting shop that had a ton of fabrics that places like joanns or hancock doesn't carry. my score of the day was a pretty yard of some gorgeous amy butler fabric that will eventually become something baby related....after the fabric store and a very interesting coffee shop (let's just say that it was the most "spiritual" coffee shop that i have ever seen), harry and i spent a few hours with aunt dusty looking for comfy sweats and hoodies. (nothing fits the same when you're pregnant).

stephen was home when we got back, and our little family of three headed over to our pastor's house to spend some time with some good friends and eat good food.

by 8 it was definitely time to head home, and while stephen and harry were spending time getting ready for bed, i sewed. i actually completed a project this weekend, too. (which is a miracle in and of itself). the pattern is from one of the books i got for my birthday (yeah the one in august). it wasn't the easiest pattern i have ever used... i am not a huge fan of using patterns from books... but it was clear enough to get the job done. and viola. the newest newborn accessory... a snuggler. i am pretty much in love with the result.

sunday has been gloriously low key. breakfast downtown, church, thrifting with aimee and an afternoon/evening of relaxation with some pretty awesome neighbors. after ending the weekend on such a high note, it would be nice to have a great week. we'll see how it pans out. stephen is going to be gone a lot this week for little league, and i try to keep myself well paced to last the entire week by myself with a rambunctious 2 year old and a very large belly. so... there it is.

maybe i will get really brave and get a vision for the pathetic excuse for a nursery that continues to remain behind closed doors at the end of the hall... or maybe i will be content to hang out in the living room for 5 straight days just trying to survive. ha. lovely....

and here is a terrible picture of my largeness at 34 weeks and 2 days.....
