Productivity

Today was, and still is a productive day.

-I figured out where we are going to have the baby, and got the papers ready for that.
-Went to the bank.
-Figured out my EI and Maternity leave information (its a bit tricky because my residency papers are still being processed)
-Figured out my heath care status for when the baby comes (same trickyness because of residency)
-Caught up to date with my parents.
-Scheduled a pre-natal class.
-Wrote some lists of baby things.
-Got some fabric from Trish (about to sew a blanket for the little one...)
-Made a meat sauce for the potluck we are going to tonight and simultaneously cleaned out the fridge :)
-Andrew mowed the lawn.
-Cleaned the kitchen.
-Went to a garage sale and found an awesome change table and changing pad... $10 :)
...
(Much thanks goes to my mother-in-law because I got out of my house and did my work over at hers and there just seems to be something about going somewhere else that makes me more productive...)

*And this isn't meant to be bragging, I just have been putting off all this stuff and feel very accomplished that its done-therefore wanted to share.

Wisconsin

Visiting in Wisconsin right now and loving it. The weather is perfect and seeing people has been wonderful! Yesterday I spent the day with Shelly and the triplets at the park and saw Anna too. In the picture the girls are trying to feel the baby kick or ,"hear a kick" as they kept saying. :) The baby sure kicks a lot these days, I just never know when it's coming!
