Yay! Superbowl Sunday. Since we've had Delores we haven't followed the games very closely. Usually we are busy cleaning on Sundays or Josh is on call and you can forget the game at 8:00. We are in bed before the first quarter is over. Having children makes you old whether you want to admit it or not. It's is just so much easier to accept your oldness and go with it than fight it.
Last night was great. Delores didn't get up at all until 6:00 and she had a bottle. I expected that though cause she wouldn't eat dinner last night before bed. I think she is cutting back teeth. She has all her usual teething symptoms, congestion, sneezing coughing, irritability, more cuddley than usual, but I can't see any white buds. At least she slept good though because after the night before last I needed a good night's sleep.
Yesterday was great too. We got our storage building in the backyard, we just can't get Josh's truck out of the yard. lol. It had been raining for 2 days and when the man is determined to get something done he will do it at all costs. So now his truck is stuck in our backyard and our yard is all torn up. I can't get mad though. He gave me the puppy dog eyes and I knew that he knew he kind of screwed up.
After that, and after Delores got up from her nap, we set off on our Saturday adventures. We went and had our taxes done first. Oh my goodness! We were there for an hour and a half and we got a women who had no idea what she was doing. Because I had worked there two years prior I was all over her. Bless her heart she had no idea what she was getting into when she took our folder. She put Delores's middle name as her first name (and didn't even spell it right), she put the wrong address in for one of Josh's W2s, she put student loan interest as education credit, and she claimed Josh's mileage from his last job as if he were self employed. Not to mention she just kept forgetting paper work and couldn't find our real estate tax on our mortgage paper. Not that it wasn't there, she just didn't know where to look. It's been two years, but I bet I could have sat in front of the computer and did them about an hour faster than she could have. The manager was so embarrassed that she waived the additional $42 the lady cost us from putting the information on the wrong page. Ugh. It was frustrating at the time, but it was pretty funny after we were done. I don't know how the women made it past the first day of training unless they were just desperate for employees this year. I know I shouldn't be saying all that about the poor women but maybe she just needs to learn she is just not cut out for taxes. Not everyone is perfect at everything.
After that we were starving and just stopped at McDonald's to eat and feed Delores. She is so funny. Delores doesn't like meat and does not like anything made with potatoes, but suddenly when mommy is eating it she loves it. She ate probably a third of my french fries, and two of my chicken nuggets. That is probably why I haven't gained hardly any weight this pregnancy because she keeps stealing my food. Lol, funny girl. After that she ate some strawberries I brought for her and we were off again. Next place was Wendy's because I gotta have my frosty fix. Then Garner's to pop in and get my vitamins. We skipped babies r us because Delores was getting sleepy and I couldn't really remember why I needed to stop there in the first place. The last place was Jc Penny to pick up our maternity pictures. They turned our pretty good. They always print extras and try to sell them to us and when we turn them down they get frustrated. Josh made a good point though. Why bother? They are just going to throw the pics away anyway so why do they bother wasting money and paper on the chance we may buy them. If we want more prints we know where to go. Sheesh. Anyway, after that we headed home. Delores fell asleep in the car so we hung out in the driveway until she got up. Then about an hour or two later Andrea showed up and we did bedtime and went to the melting pot.
If you have never been to the Melting Pot you need to go and get the 4 course meal. Oh my goodness! It was so so good. It was so laid back too. No rushing to get us out the door. Each course was so leisurely. We were there for 2 and a half hours. We had an interesting waiter who had to be a stoner. He said "awesome," so many times it got to be funny. He kept saying that he wanted to eat our food too. Lol, Josh joked that he probably had the munchies and was out back hitting a doobie in between our courses, Lol. I started playing a little game too. It was the "try to make it back from the bathroom before he brings the next course," game. I got up to pee 4 times while we were there. Oh and they sat us in one of those tiny two person booths so it was extra fun to try to get in and out. I got so many stares and from the vision in the bathroom's full length mirror I could understand why. I am huge! Lol. Anyway, when ever we go out we always get sat at one of those booths and we have come to the conclusion that they do this just to be funny. I am a 9 month pregnant women and Josh is a 6'7" man. How in the world are we suppose to fit in one of those booths comfortably? While next to us there are two skinny people sitting in a booth wraps around to easily fit 4 adult people. It's just getting ridiculous. The food was to die for though and you should definitely try it.
We came home exhausted from all our eating and we went straight to bed and it was a terrific Valentine's day. Nothing special, just fantastic food, with just me and Josh and great conversation. It was just what I needed and I was so glad to get it before this baby comes.
Speaking of which, I am now 39 weeks pregnant with one week to go.
Wish me luck with this last week!
Church today, cleaning, and the Superbowl. Hopefully some relaxing and some cuddle time with the hubby. Oh and probably get the truck out of the yard so Josh can go to work tomorrow. Lol. Have a great Sunday!
