Time flies...

Well, I have nothing really exciting to report. Dan and I have finally found some time to sort of relax. We did nothing last weekend, which felt really good. This weekend is my big fundraiser for work and I'm praying that it will go off without any problems. I'm a nervous wreck when it comes to that kind of stuff.
Dan and I have had two weeks of Sunday school with middle school and high school boys. You must be wondering what that is like? Well, it is very interesting, to say the very least. We both have enjoyed it so far, but it is just so different for me to work with boys because they do not enjoy the emotional aspect of life near as much as I do. Good thing I don't mind making a fool of myself, right? Dan does a good job with the boys and I realize how much I respect him as a teacher (and a person), dealing with kids every day. I definitely could not do it.
My first baby shower is coming up in a little over a week and I am so excited not just to get cute little presents for my baby, but to see so many people that I have not been able to since we've movd to Phillipsburg. I just love my friends and my family and can't wait to spend even just a few hours with them on the 27th. At that time I will have just 7 weeks until Baby Girl Barnes is due to arrive. And I keep reminding her if she chooses to arrive a week early, we are not opposed to that! Well, that's all for now friends. Next update will have fun pictures from my baby shower.

What we've been up to

Dan and I have been pretty busy these last couple of weeks. But we've been having a great time with family and friends. My parents came to P-burg this weekend to visit and they helped get the baby's room started. I didn't post pictures of that, because I want to wait until it's all done. But we did get it all cleaned out, got the carpet cleaned, and my dad, my mom, and Dan painted the crib and the changing table a beautiful white. They are so cute!
My parents are so funny. We had such a great time with them and I was sad to see them go this morning. Love you guys!

These couple of pictures are from last weekend at Adam and Lindsey's house. We had a great Labor Day weekend with them, relaxing, laughing, and just hanging out. Their baby girl is due October 10, so we won't get to see each other for a while and when we do, they're going to be a little distracted, as they should be!

Happy 25th birthday to me! Dan and I celebrated my 25th birthday this past week and it was fabulous! It really could not have been a better day. Dan made me a wonderful birthday dinner and then a delicious cake!
Here's my profile at almost 30 weeks! Today, there are 9 weeks and 6 days to go. Can you believe it?

These last pictures are of our 4D ultrasound we had last Thursday. The baby was sort of cooperative, but not entirely. So if you think her eyes look kind of freaky, it's just because she was not in a good position to capture what her eyes look like. She will, of course, look so much cuter in our arms in less than 10 weeks! These are just a couple of the ones that turned out really good.

Although it seems like Dan and I's every thought is consumed with baby baby baby, we are still hoping that everyone reading this is doing well and enjoying the start of September. We would love to hear from all of you!
