Father's day...We're ready...less than 2 weeks to go!

We enjoyed a wonderful Father's Day weekend here at the Stout house. Friday afternoon Tim took a half day off and we went to Ankeny to spend some time with Gma and Gpa Stout. We stopped by Target and picked out a new pack-n-play w/ bassinet and then we had a pizza dinner with the grandparents! FUN! That night Tim went to the races at the Fairgrounds with his dad, his brother and his friend. They had a blast! Saturday, we vegged (it was HOT!) and we just had a low-key day around home. The girls and Tim made a trip to get the oil changed on the van and Saturday night the girls went to church to play while we had a date night at home. We had grilled BBQ chicken, veggies and baked potatoes for dinner & watched Pretty In PInk...Long story...I am educating Tim on all of the GREAT 80s flicks he has missed out on. A few others on my list are Footloose, 16 Candles, The Breakfast Club, Mannequin, Dirty Dancing, etc... poor guy! Any suggestions are welcome! After our date we picked up the girls and went out for ice cream at Granny's- it's the BEST! Sunday we headed to church with dan and Amy at First Federated...the church was having a Father's Day Rally and a Car Show and it was fun! After the rally and touring the cars, we headed to Famous Dave's for a late lunch/ early supper! YUMMO! Home for naps and then ice cream again @ Granny's later that night!

Pregnancy- 2 weeks and counting. We are ready as we'll ever be...I guess....we still haven't purchased "going home" outfits but that's b/c we don't know how close this baby's arrival will be to the 4th of July....so we're waiting....maybe I'll just pick some things up this week! I am feeling okay...I am having a few contactions here and there (unlike with the girls), lots of back aches that come and go, days of tons of energy and days of exhaustion.....just normal pregnancy stuff...the baby is still a mover and shaker.... At my last appt. I had dropped a pound and that has been the case the past two weeks....hmmm???? ONly 2 weeks to go! Also, doc said I may be induced if I am 3 soon and/or we will schedule an induction in the next 2 weeks b/c of an office merger and they want to make sure I get a doctor that I know! GREAT! I am headed back to the doctortomorrow afternoon, I CAN'T WAIT, and they will check to see if anything is happening! HOORAY! The girls are sooooooo excited! Madison wants the baby to come on her b-day and Morgan says it's a brother, but always talkes about the baby using a she pronoun...FUNNY! Tim is READY and HE CANNOT WAIT to meet this baby....we are just PUMPED! However, I am not pumped about the post-prego body issues that will soon approach! YUCKO!

Well- time to get back to the girls! We are expecting rain today and so we have inside things planned: painting, reading, movies, play, etc.... Hopefully the rain will cool things off around here and my garden and flowers sure could use a good soaking!
