Whirlwind May

I cannot believe that the end of May is here. What a whirlwind month it has been. After Amanda's and Lindsey's and Cole's visit here the beginning of May, I flew out to CA to stay with Amanda for 10 days while Matt was in the field. It was so much fun getting ready for the baby! BTW, have I told you lately, I'm going to be a "Grandma - Nana" again! If I haven't, well, I am going to be a grandma - nana again!!!!!!!!!! The end of June.

What did we do in CA? Well, we tried putting a dresser together - women power after all - so much for that - it didn't happen and Matt came home early and he had it together in an hour. We just couldn't get things flushed together on the sides so we stopped. Hence, we figured we couldn't do a bookcase either. Matt came home had the dresser done in an hour, the bookcase done, then he put together the crib. Oh well - everything is put together now and ready to go.

Amanda went to the doctors yesterday and he told her to pack her bags that the baby is in position to come out. Freaked her out I bet because she really has 6 weeks to go. Dad mailed a box back already for her with things she needed right away - like her diaper bag. He was very efficient. He also mailed Nina's gift from Amanda and myself, so now she has to mail them back to me by May 30. I might be going out and buying something else. Hopefully, I will get it by May 29.

We are babysitting Caleb today - I haven't seen him for two weeks and he was so excited when we pulled up to their home. He just kept yelling - Pappy and Nana. He loves playing outside and we took his "rocket ship car" for a ride. He likes pushing it down the hill and chases after it and it is such "hard work" pushing it back up the hill. We then went to Home Depot and Lowe's and saying "zoom zoom" in the cart. Then we went to lunch at "Zippy's" and he had a hot dog or should I say he had ketchp with a hot dog! He watched a half hour show and immediately took a nap. He was such good boy today! Did I mention how cute he is!!!!!!

We're off to the cottage for 5 days for Memorial Day weekend and do some demo work on our bathroom! We redoing the bathroom and I cannot wait to get rid of a 30 odd year bathroom. Have fun everyone on this holiday and stay safe! See you all when we get back!
