Nesting

Since I've been going crazy trying to make sure everything is in order before Evie comes, I figured I should update this more frequently too. No loose ends!!! :)

05/07 - Happy 1st Birthday Avery!! Sean had a playdate with Aiden, Liam, Rory & his friend Amanda while daddy & I went to see Uncle Billee's band with my Amanda & Dan. :) He had a great time, ate lots (surprise!!) and he's been asking to go back. 05/08 - We went to lunch at Unos for Grandpa Larry's fundraiser. Sean & daddy went home for a nap while I went to Carter's 2nd birthday party. I picked up Sean & daddy afterwards & we went to the Bishops to celebrate Avery's birthday. 05/09 - Happy Mother's Day!!! Sean & daddy brought me cards & gifts in bed this morning. Sean got me gummy bears, but managed to eat the whole bag himself by the end of the day. :) We went to Maranatha for the "kiss & a rose" ceremony. Sean got to give Grandma Sue & me a rose. We went to lunch afterwards with Grandma Sue, Grandpa Larry & Uncle Scott. We finished the night with dinner at Grandma & Puppas. Sean stayed & played with Grandma (I'm pretty sure they did a lot of rolling on the floor - they get silly when they're together :) while daddy & I went to Babies R Us to get some odds & ends for Evie. 05/10 - Sean & daddy came with me to my 38 week check up. They waited in the waiting room during my exam & when I came out, Sean asked "where's my sticker?". He's such a creature of habit!! We had to go back through the out door to check out & get a sticker for him. 05/11 - We were suppose to go to a Tigers game, but it got postponed due to rain. Sean was devastated because at 3, he doesn't have a full grasp of "postponed". So, we went bowling instead to lift his spirits and it worked. He had fun. On the way home, he asked me to tell the story about the night. He added a part I "missed" part of the way through about how I "yelled" at him when he stepped on foul line. I said, "I didn't yell at you. I just told you that you could fall & you don't get points when you step on that line." He replied, "Well you gave me crazy eyes or something." Nice... :) 05/12 - Daddy came home from work at noon & we went to the Tigers game that was postponed from the night before. Everything was perfect. It was about 55 & cloudy - but no wind or rain, the game lasted about 2 hrs & 10 min, we were in our seats for everything eventful that happened in the game, the hotdogs were fresh & the Tigers won. I really wanted to have one more opportunity to take Sean to a game before Evie came & it was everything I wanted it to be!! 05/13 - Sean went to Grandma Sue & Grandpa Larry's. Daddy & I went on a dinner date & then picked him up. He was in a loopy mood, but very tired once we got home. Sugar high??? 05/14 - Sean stayed with Grandpa Jim while I visited Ms. Kris for the last time at Beaumont. She's home & resting now as her & baby Caden are doing well!! That night we celebrated Avery joining the Bishop family with an open house at the church. 05/15 - Daddy & I had Ignite training at the church, so Sean spent the morning with his grandparents. He started the morning at Grandma Sue & Grandpa Larry's playing Candy Land (he always wins!!!) and we picked him up at Grandma's house. They were outside by the "dragon bushes" and Sean had to water all the plants. They drew lots of pictures on Puppa's driveway with sidewalk chalk too. The resurrection story, I think, inspired by Sean. :) After nap, we went to the park with Dani and then to Sonic where Sean discovered "Deep Sea Tot" toys. We now have the whole collection! 05/16 - Chase came home with us after church. We went to see Ms. Toni for lunch with daddy & Grandpa Jim. Afterwards, daddy went fishing with Puppa. Sean & Chase played until around 3:30 when we went to the park by Grandma's house & then to Grandma's for dinner. The boys sat at a "kiddie" card table & giggled through dinner. A little dangerous when there are mini carrots involved, but no choking occurred - yay! We finished the night at the last FX until fall. 05/17 - Sean got "Where is God When I'm Scared", a Veggie Tales movie, from Grandma. We've watched it about a hundred times since. Maybe this will help him sleep in his own room??? I picked him up from Susie's after my 39 wk appt & when daddy got home we went to El Charros for dinner. 05/18 - After work, we went to Grandma & Puppa's for chicken soup. Well, Sean had a bologna luchable & fruit twist - staples in his diet. Sean & Grandma played while daddy & Puppa got some fishing stuff together & then me, daddy & Sean went to Blossom Heath to fish. It didn't last long because it was cold & the worms "acskadentally" got rolled into the water. No bites anyway, so we'll have to try again another time. Sean-isms for the day - "Just because I don't like you sometimes, doesn't mean I don't love you!". This after I took his marbles away for hitting Dani in the head with them. He said I was mean & he didn't like me, but when I was getting him dressed, he hugged me. I asked why he was hugging me if he didn't like me and that's what he came back with. :) Then, at night, he was reciting his memory verse, part of the 23rd Psalm & he incorporated a little "How to Train Your Dragon". "Eventhough I walk through the valley of the shadow of the Red Death...". I love him!!! 05/19 - After grocery shopping with Grandpa Jim, we went to Liam's house. The boys played with Sean's new Hot Wheels car wash, ate lunch, jumped on the trampoline, etc. We went home & napped. Before nap Sean was watching tv and he asked me if it was almost over. I asked if he wanted to watch something else & he said, "Well, you should probably turn on baseball. It's the only way I'm going to fall asleep." Seriously, he's awesome. 05/20 - Today is my last day of work - so hopefully we'll have a baby soon. After work we're going to dinner for Uncle Marty's birthday. Happy Birthday Uncle Marty!!
