Our Waiting Game & New Toys

This was not an easy weekend for us.  After the doctor said the baby would probably make a move this weekend  (they should never tell you that in the first place - my real doctor never would have said that!) that's all we could think of.  I know all of you are patiently waiting, but you should see John!

Friday I pretty much took it easy with the exception of our ritual of going and walking Target.  This is getting to be quite the expensive destination.  I used up the last of the black ink in one of our printers so we had to buy a couple new cartridges since our other printer was out of color ink as well.

Saturday I tried a different approach and kept myself busy around the house.  Since I know I won't want to do much housework after the baby comes I took this time to clean our floors.  I moved every single carpet square and vaccumed them all.  I also swept and swiffered every corner of the downstairs.  We even moved the couch and went under the big rug!  Yeah, I'm a little sore now, but the floor looks great!

We decided that since this yesterday, Sunday, was probably going to be one of our last days to sleep in we skipped church and I made John a waffle breakfast.  Yum!  Then we had another costly outing.  Our contracts were up on our phones and my Rumor only let me talk for 5 minutes before the battery completely drained so we decided it was time to make the switch.  John had been patiently waiting for about a year for a new phone since he is a gadget geek and bored with his Palm Treo.  After we picked out the phones we wanted we found out that John's phone of choice couldn't be activated on our current plan.  And basically our current plan (which was a very good deal) wasn't even available anymore.  We bit the bullet and got the cheapest plan that would work even though quite a bit more $$/month.  We both now have internet and data usage, unlimited texting, GPS, and more minutes than we could possibly use per month.  I decided on a little better phone too since I would now have all these features.  John ended up with the HTC Hero and I have the Palm Pixi.  They are both so pretty and nice and we are trying to get used to the touch screens.  So, yesterday afternoon and evening we were pretty distracted with our new toys!  At least this kept our minds off of the baby!

Then it was back to work for both of us today where we both got asked by many people "What are you doing here!"  I guess we will just keep playing our waiting game!
