March Break

Oh, how I do love the spring season!! And what beautiful weather we have had over most of the March Break. So thankful!! We have enjoyed the week by sleeping in, taking it easy most mornings and spending time outside playing, taking walks, and bike rides. We have very much enjoyed being out of routine. We were also able to celebrate my Mom's birthday last Saturday. I also had a prenatal appointment on Wednesday and was able to hear our baby's heartbeat for the first time. 158 strong beats! In a couple weeks, I have an ultrasound scheduled and we will hopefully find out what we are having (that is if the baby cooperates). Hope you all had a wonderful and enjoyable March Break!

our bathroom paint job and pregnant belly photo

So far in our home, we have not had to do any paint jobs, other than touch ups. We like most every colour in our home. Although the basement bathroom still had a light pink beige colour and it didn't really do anything for the room. Paul had a couple days off in between shifts, so we tackled the job of the basement bathroom. We (as in Paul does the painting, Jennifer picks the colour, and helps by keeping the boys out of the way)!! ;) Here are some before and after pictures of the job. We are pleased with the outcome.

I still hope to find some decorative items to help out the room, but will wait until we see something we like.

Things are well with the pregnancy. I am starting to get my energy back and not needing to rest quite as much. I am able to skip afternoon naps (except a Sunday nap!), I just make sure that I get to bed on time each night and get plenty of sleep. I am still taking diclectin and will wean off of that eventually. I even started exercising a bit the past couple of days. I want to try to stay in shape while pregnant. I was even able to take the boys for a walk yesterday to enjoy the very beautiful spring like weather out there. Looking forward to spring coming! I really LOVE spring. It is my favourite season.
