Something good happens each day. Here's what happened in September 2011:
Thu 9/1/11: Today was another day at Court for Brad. I went with him this time, and so did Brad's dad. Things are headed in the right direction. We're hopeful things can get better and the litigation can end soon.
Fri 9/2/11: Lizzy cut her hair for the first time today. I was very sad to see her perfect little locks of light brown hair lying on the bathroom floor. Evil scissors! But at least she only has the attention span of a two-year-old and didn't get very far. Plus, no one would be able to notice it unless I point it out. One advantage for having curly hair.
Sat 9/3/11: We went to the storage unit today, and I began another project of sorting through baby clothes and organizing DI piles. I got done a lot of good work today. I'm excited that baby David will be joining our family soon!
Sun 9/4/11: Lizzy, as always, does the cutest things in church every Sunday. I love how she tries to sing out of the hymn books, how she gets excited when the sacrament is passed, and how she always wants to participate in prayer time. She loves the routine of going to church.
Mon 9/5/11: We went to the Harman's for our last pool party of the year! The weather was overcast and the water was cold, but we still had a blast. Lizzy learned to kick her legs while sitting in her floating seat to get places. It helped her stay warmer longer, too.
Tue 9/6/11: I bought some children books from the library tonight for only $1.00 total. That was nice! Lizzy, as usual, had a wonderful time at the library. It's one of her favorite places.
Wed 9/7/11: I made yummy homemade zucchini bread tonight and it made my kitchen smell like Christmas. Mmm Mmm!
Thu 9/8/11: I went to see my OBGYN today. We are now down to once-a-week appointments. Can't believe how quickly time is flying!
Fri 9/9/11: It was a nice and busy Friday night! I made beef stew for dinner tonight and everyone liked it. Emma's friend, Makenna spent the night with Emma. Scott earned the right to play video games again, so he had a fun evening on the laptop. We all went to Brad's volleyball game to watch him play.
Sat 9/10/11: Brad and I got done a LOT of chores today. My room is ready for baby stuff now. I can't help but feel relieved!
Sun 9/11/11: Today I feel overwhelmingly blessed to be married to my wonderful husband. I guess that's what happens when two of the lessons I heard in church were on marriage. My husband is my best friend and I love him with all my heart.
Mon 9/12/11: I can't believe I'm 35 weeks pregnant now! Wow, has the time flown by! I feel very good for being so far along in my pregnancy. My hips give me grief on occasion, and I still battle fatigue at times, but overall I feel pretty good.
Tue 9/13/11: I made Shepherd's Pie for dinner tonight. It's definitely a family favorite. Emma had to go back for seconds.
Wed 9/14/11: Scott taught Lizzy to say "Emma is crazy" today, and in return Emma taught Lizzy to say "Scott is weird." Silly siblings!
Thu 9/15/11: We all had dinner tonight at Wendy's before Emma's therapy appointment. The location we went to had some free candy, balloons, and free frosty coupons, which we were not expecting. Lizzy loved her balloon the best.
Fri 9/16/11: My OBGYN told me I am already a cm dilated and the baby's head is nice and low. Not too much longer now! Exactly one month until my due date!
Sat 9/17/11: We took Lizzy to a petting zoo at the library today. There were cute tiny horses there as well as a baby lama and a few pygmy goats. We also officially introduced Lizzy to Pixar's Ratatouille today. She loved it! I enjoyed watching it, too, although it made me really hungry.
Sun 9/18/11: Scott was sustained and ordained a Teacher in church today. We celebrated Scott's birthday in the evening with our extended family members. Brad made two birthday cakes. It was nice spending time with Brad's family.
Mon 9/19/11: I made my fabulous homemade chili for dinner tonight. Emma, of course, was thrilled. She loves my homemade chili.
Tue 9/20/11: Today Lizzy saw me covering my face with my hands. I think she thought I was feeling sad, because she came up to me and said in her very soothing 2-year-old voice, "It's okay, Mommy. Papa is come home." She thought I was sad because Brad was at work. It was so cute! It made me laugh.
Wed 9/21/11: I hate to say it, but I thoroughly enjoyed having a dog-free day today without Miko. I'm grateful we were able to find a good home for her yesterday. Plus it's nice having the extra $200 in the savings account.
Thu 9/22/11: Emmy got stung by a yellow jacket today. Poor girl. She's fine, though. I enjoyed spending some extra time with her.
Fri 9/23/11: I was in and out of my doctor's appointment within 20 minutes! It was a record!
Sat 9/24/11: We went to the DI and I found more baby clothes... we went to Sam's Club and stocked up on groceries... we took Lizzy to the park so she could get some one-on-one time... and we bought a baby bathtub from off a KSL ad. We're getting ready for Baby David to come!
Sun 9/25/11: Full-term today! I'm 37 weeks! Sister Thompson announced in Relief Society that I only had three weeks left. Made me laugh. ;)
Mon 9/26/11: Today is my Mama's birthday. I called her up this morning to wish her a Happy Birthday, and to have Lizzy sing to her. First Lizzy was too shy to sing, but by the end of the conversation she was brave enough and sang to Grandma. Lizzy is such a sweetie!
Tue 9/27/11: Bradley brought me home another Milky Way candy bite from work today. He is such a sweet and thoughtful husband. Makes me happy every time!
Wed 9/28/11: I had plenty of energy for shopping today! I definitely have more motivation and stamina that I did weeks previously, and I'm beginning to "nest" like crazy.
Thu 9/29/11: Lizzy had fun flirting with my doctor today and making everyone at the practice smile. She's such a friendly little gal. We stopped by the park on the way home and Lizzy had a great time playing on the play equipment, looking at the ducks, throwing rocks in the pond, and watching the dogs at the dog park. I love spending time with my daughter.
Fri 9/30/11: Spending some alone time with my hubby was definitely the highlight of my day. I'm so blessed to be married to such a wonderful guy. He makes me so happy.
