What a very stressful week but an incredible weekend we had!  With the bathroom renovation coming to an end (aka, mess, everywhere), Jon traveling for 3 days while my grumpy 37 week pregnant body tried to keep up with the toddler and the housework and the stress at work and the “to do” list putting more and more stress on our already crazy schedule, I could barely make it out the other end alive.  I know that people deal with much more, but I’m spoiled and this was tough.  But then the weekend came and things started to settle down.  Peanut and I had a wonderful play date with a working mom’s group.  Jon’s mom came over to watch P while Jon and I did some shopping, saw a movie and went out to dinner.  We finally started to attack the to do list, finished the big items on the bathroom, cleaned up a bit and even started to attack the yard.

Here’s what our week looked like by iPhone pics.

The only way to get the tot to wear a bib these days is to wear one yourself  ::  I told P that she had to take her finger out of her nose…so she covered her eyes because, ya know, if she can’t see me then I can’t see her  ::  breakfast for dinner  ::  painting with mess-free finger paint  ::  she calls it, rainbow fish  ::  meltdown on the way to daycare Friday morning…oh toddler years  ::  this pregnant chick’s treat on Friday night – teddy graham dipped in Nutella  ::  playdate at a local indoor playground  ::  date night with my guy

Chasing Gigi’s watch’s reflection  ::  a deep conversation over coffee with her Gigi  ::  cuddling with dad on the couch while he naps  ::  Sundays are for messy hair and toys scattered all over the living room while mom and dad just lounge  ::  oh and piggy back rides  ::  belly diaries from this week (and I finally got my hair highlighted!)

You guys, I’m absolutely beat after this week and weekend – but for it we have a brand new bathroom to show!  And if I’m tired, I honestly cannot even imagine the pain that my dad and Jon are in since they did all the heavy lifting.  It is also the last “project” before the baby comes.  Now it’s time to nest

Nice week = tricycle rides  ::  a late bday gift from auntie Lana comes just in time for a big renovation project  ::  bathroom demo begins  ::  Peanut and I stay away most afternoons to give Jon some space to demo the bathroom  ::  sneaking a pic in the morning of these two trouble-makers  ::  afternoon pick-up, obviously finding these two together  ::  the 3 musketeers blowing bubbles  ::  helping Papa and daddy put together the Ikea bathroom vanity  ::  How many grown men and toddlers does it take to put together a piece of Ikea furniture?  Trick question, it’s two grown men, a toddler, and one pregnant lady

Wearing pajamas to school…because she’s 2 and I’m ok with that  ::  a Friday evening trip to Home Depot  ::  Kid City entertainment on Saturday morning to stay out of the bathroom reno way  ::  lunch date with Amy and Luas at Kid City  ::  blowing bubbles in the afternoon…Peanut and I were on our own a lot  ::  my new living room decorative item  ::  playing with trains and tracks  ::  feeling the baby move – it’s one of her new favorite things to do  ::  testing out the new bathtub
