Our Sunday!

Today was a real good day.  Woke up in a good mood and with the sun shining thru my windows in the kitchen and bedroom.  I got up and made some Pancakes and made some coffee pretty early.  Stephen slept a lil longer then I did but got up at a decent time.  He ate and played some games then we went to the Theinsville, WI car show/festival.  It was a real nice place ontop of it being a gorgeous day.  The sun was shining and a little breeze.  The festival/car show was on the Milwaukee River there in Theinsville.  

It was in the local park as well.  We took a walk along the "river walk" that hey had there.  It wasn't anywhere near finished but it was fun.  You could get down right by the river.  There were little small paths down to it.  We went down there and sat for a little bit.  Stephen even picked me a few daises and gave them to me and put one in my hair.  awwwww! 

Well we left there and came home.  Stephen took me on a little cruise down Lake Park Dr that goes right by the lake thru the most expensive side of town.  Some of those houses there on the lake are over millions of dollars.  I couldn't believe it.  They were so gorgeous.  I wish one day we could afford a gorgeous house like one of those on the lake, but not in our near future. 

We got home around 3:30 and I was bored so I started to pain Nadia's room.  I decided to make strips on one of the walls.  It was pretty easy to do and it came out real nice.  I think that I might do it on the other wall as well.  Now I am just waiting on Stephen to get me the rest of the paint and i can finish it all up in a few hours and get all the plastic up off the floor and get all the things in the room put in there that we have so far.  =]  Well lets hope that this next week will be a great one.  The weather is going to be real pretty and lets hope that my mood is as nice as the weather.  :)  

Y'all have a great week!

Finally

The heat has finally broke and its in the 60s.  Perfect weather for doing things around the house and sleeping.  Last night was a rumbly one.  We got a lot of storms and they lasted for half the night.  It was pretty cool to look out the back door and in the sky you could see all the heat lightning before the storm came.  Every second there was a strike of lightning and was really pretty.  By the time the storm hit us it was about 9 30 at night.  Stephen went in the kitchen and sat at the table with the lights off and watched it storm for a little bit.  I think that he was really fascinated by it.  I told him that in Indiana that is a normal storm with the winds and thunder.  It was a good night.

We also went grocery shopping last night to Pick N save (local grocery store, kinda like Marsh)  and saved a lil over 80 bucks!  I was so excited with all that!  They double their coupons on Wednesday and Saturday and when we went yesterday they were doing the Double Double daze (which instead of only doubling 5 coupons they double 10)  WOOHOO!  I didnt know that and I planned out for only 5 coupons doubling and planned my list around the sales and the coupons i had.  I was so very excited about them doing that.  I think that we will go there from now on to shop.  We actually saved more there then we did at walmart and we still got our meats and meals for about two weeks.  =]  

I still need to go back and get a few little things that we couldnt get because we didn't have room in our cart (if that tells you anything).  We had to have two carts to take the stuff out to the car and it was amazing.  I feel very proud!  =]

Heat Advisory and Record Breaking Heat...

It has been miserable the last few days and tomorrow isnt going to be any better.  

I am miserable with being pregnant and dealing with a tiny a/c that barely keeps the living room cool but the bedroom a decent temp.  I know for a fact that I will never get pregnant again during the summer.  This is horrible.  Yes, I know that I am complaining and whining but I have never been this miserable during the summer before in my life.  I usually enjoy the hotness of the summer and usually get out in it to go to the pool.  Now whenever I get out in it I instantly start to sweat and can barely breathe.  It also does not help that we have no a/c in our car and Stephen isn't going to get it fixed either, (which i think is a bunch of bull since we are having a child and need it) so i sit here with fans going and trying to keep cool. 
I did how ever go to the doctor yesterday afternoon for my 6 month check up and he said everything was looking good and that my blood pressure is good and my weight is good (which im at 150!!!!!!!!!) and I have only gained 14 lbs but man it took me awhile to get down to what I wanted to get down to before I got preg.  He also told me that it is mostly just water weight because its getting hot and I am starting to swell up.... great.  That's all I need is to swell up like a balloon and be hot.  Lovely.  Never again will I get pregnant during the summer.  As a matter of fact I dont think I will have anymore kids.  I am good with what I have and I do no want to go thru this anymore.  Im done.  

I really wish I was at the cottage right now tho laying in the hammock and going swimming with everyone else.  Maybe getting a few rays of sunlight to get a lil brown and go fishing at dusk or at dawn.  I miss that a lot and want it back.

Well I guess I'm going to go for now and get myself one of my Sugar Free Real Fruit Popsicle.  Hopefully I can stay cool enough...

Car Shows and the Weekend.

This past weekend Stephen and I went to the 1st annual US 41 Car Show/Cruze-In.  It was all up and down 27th street here on the southside of town.  They had a lot of different cars and hot rods.  A lot of the ones we have seen last year as well as some new ones that we didn't see last year at all the local car shows that they have here in the Milwaukee area.

We went and only saw a few cars because it was extremely hot that day with a high humidity.  I almost passed out just getting out of the car to head to the last half of the car show place, so left and came home and relaxed in the s/c the rest of the day.  On Sunday we really didn't do anything and it was so gorgeous outside.  I did get a lot of cleaning done around the place and found out that my sweeper broke and we need to get a new belt for it.  *sigh*  Like I have said before if its not one thing its another thing and its getting old very fast.  

Well there was my weekend and I hope that everyone else had a wonderful weekend and a amazing week to come.

My Weekend.

Well this past weekend was Memorial Day.  It was a hot day as well.  Most of the weekend it rained and was kinda chilly.  Monday rolls around and it gets up into the 90s.  It was very miserable.  It was also humid and sticky.  Well we went and took the car to get it washed and cleaned out the inside.  It needed it really bad because it hadnt been cleaned since last summer.  Well after we did that we went and had a lil adventure at a park.  We got some Arbys (i had a salad)  and went to the park to eat by a river.  It was really nice and there were a lot of Geese and their babies.

Me feeding the Geese tomatoes =]

Stephen going down the rocks to the water.

Well they would get pretty close to us and want to eat anything that we had. 
Well after we ate some food and watched the momma geese and their babies we took a small walk and found a really pretty spot where there was a water fall.  It was pretty cool.  There were rocks all the way down to the water.  The water wasn't to cold and you could walk in it.  It was only about an inch deep but the bottom was really slippery due to all the muk on the bottom that collected.

The waterfall =]

Well we stayed there and i got in the water to cool off for a little bit and then we left because more people came and we are the type that don't like to be around a lot of people when we are trying to relax.   We came home and didnt do anything the rest of the night.  It did get unbearable and I had a meltdown and started to cry because I was so hot, so Stephen and I went and got a cheap a/c for the bedroom and then I went to bed.  He didn't come to bed til a lil after that.  I was exhausted and hot so i slept pretty good.

Adventure At the Park

This is the entrance to the park after you cross the small bridge

So its been awhile since I have been able to put photos on here.  We went to the park one evening when Stephen got home from work.  When we went to the park it was super foggy and awesome looking so i snapped a few photos of the fog rolling into the woods.

It was really awesome looking with all the fog and the sun coming thru the trees and fog =]
