Back to reality...and triple digits

A triple belly watchOur trip to the mitten was short but sweet. We got to see lots of family, and we wish Staci and Taylor all the best! We got to see friends too. We were really going nonstop from about 2:00 a.m. Friday morning until 10:00 p.m. Sunday night. My two favorite things were shopping with my mom, and seeing my friends again. My mom took me shopping at maternity stores, which would have been intimidating by myself...we had a lot of fun! It was so nice to see my friends and everyone there had kids or was pregnant so it was all babies all night. It was so cool to listen to them all and see them as the wonderful moms they've all become.

On the Monday and Tuesday we were back here in Phoenix, the temps reached 110. Yuck! Then by Friday it was rainy, and the low was 55...half of the high from 3 days before! It was very strange. They're saying now that this weekend and next week will reach 100 and over.

We signed a lease on a new place with two bedrooms...can't wait to start setting up the baby's room! We had another doctor's appointment on Wednesday, nothing new to report. I have started feeling him move though! That was very exciting, and he seems to be very active!

School's out...thank goodness! What a year! I can honestly say I will miss some of them, but I did not shed a tear when they all left on Wednesday. It was a relief to get this year over with. Hopefully next year will be easier...even if it's not, I won't be there for part of the year! I am teaching summer school again this year. I start on Monday and it lasts 4 weeks. Only half days and I get Fridays off. Man, this summer will go fast!

Fa la la la, la la la la

P3170077This is a strange and exciting turn of events...the temp inside our little apartment is close to 80 (we turned the air off last night) and the current temp outside is 64. Weather-wise, I had quite a nice little stroll with the doggies. I feel like crap, my throat is closing up, and doggies behaved poorly, but what can you do? Ah yes, fall is coming to the valley. Just last night we were at Costco and they were making room for the parkas. Tomorrow we're driving up to Flagstaff, or "Flag" as the locals call it, and perhaps we'll even see some yellowing, deciduous leaves! Soon we'll be in full-fledged winter...you know, when the temp drops to about 50 and nothing much else happens.
