Full of Water

Nathan I just spent 4 whole days between Ripon and Turlock to celebrate Christmas with our families. It was great and thank you to our families who bought us some great gifts! Of course Lincoln was not left out. It was hilarious when my brother-in-law Ian made the joke that its not fair that I got more gifts this year because I'm opening for two people. I love stuff like that. Reminds Nate and I that next Christmas Lincoln is going to be having so much fun with our families.

From Belle-Mere and Auntie Kaity.
Love the motordodder aka motorcycle.

Aunt Kaity made this darling quilt for Lincoln.
I was having a hard time finding one that was affordable
and figured what's better than one that was made just for him!

 Besides the Christmas holiday, we had some interesting developments at the Roos household. First to start off the week we found a minor seepage issue coming from the rosebush to the cement foundation to the house. Sounds like a big deal but in the end really wasn't. All we had to do was take out the rosebush and then just dig down to the cement foundation in the front of the house. That way water doesn't want pool up and seep in through the concrete.

The MAJOR bonus with this is that Lincoln is getting all new awesome laminate flooring in his room. I have been wanting to get this flooring for a long, long time since I hate carpet. We also got it for only 370 bucks thanks to my mom and her manager from Lowes. My parents and little brother are going to come up next weekend and help us install it too! Man did we score or what! Another bonus is that  I don't have to convince Nate to buy it now because it became a necessity since the carpet was ruined. :)

Here is what Lincoln's room looks like currently:

Yes this is what it really looks like.

Look at that beautiful flooring! Eek! So excited!

We also have an unplanned home improvement project looming this weekend. When Nate and I got back home on Christmas night we discovered that our front side fence had completely blown over. How awesome is that? (Super sarcastic there). Good thing the fence is salvageable and it shouldn't be too much of a task....hopefully! I have built fences before and its not like Nate is a dummy so I'm sure we can figure it out. More like I will be directing and Nate will be doing the work since I can't lift fencing like I used to be able to.

This weekend is also our 5 year wedding anniversary. Our last one of just us together. We are going to a restaurant in Sacramento called the Firehouse and depending on how our fence building goes we might go see a movie. Hopefully this dinner will be as spectacular as everybody keeps saying. After all it keeps getting rated one of the best restaurants in Sacramento!

Our adventures of doing just us time has kind of taken a back seat this week, but I did find Nathan doing this last night. Good for him! He knows that when Lincoln first comes video gaming might take a back seat just for a bit, or rather he won't have the time to sit down for 3 hours and play non-stop.

Kill those mofo's Nathan!

I am right in the middle of my 34th week at this point. I feel like ugh. I feel like I am just full of water. I hope that my weight gain is due to that. I also have recently became very tired again. Part of it is that I'm not sleeping well and the other I think is just because I'm so uncomfortable. In other words I'm hitting the 3rd trimester slump.

Here is a picture of me at 34 weeks. Yes I look tired and its because I am :)

Go back and look at last weeks picture.
I noticed a huge change in my belly size.
