a week past due

i'm just now posting about last weekend (3/21)... sorry! it seems as though i have no time these days! for the past two weeks i've had something to do everyday after work. i guess i'm being prepared for having olivia! let's start with the 30 week official photo. this was taken last saturday (3/21) at 30 weeks 1 day.also that saturday i helped (along with some great friends and my mom) host a wedding shower for one of my best friends. we had it at the tech alumni center and it was really nice! rach said she enjoyed it and that's what counts! we had a lot of fun planning for it and actually doing it! here are a few pics of the set-up. if the other hostesses would be so kind to email me their pics i could post pics of actual people...that night rett and i went to ponchatoula's for our first crawfish of the season. they're still REALLY small but they had good flavor and that's what counts! on a side note, rett had some from jefferson corner this weekend and he said they were better...

last sunday, we got up and drove to the 'boro for church. the choir at the church i grew up in was singing something special for my dad so the whole fam went! then we had lunch at home and loaded up a "man chair" for rett! we brought back a recliner to go in "rett's room". he said he was putting a sign on it - no girls allowed! we took photos but i'll need mom and dad to email me those.

here are some pics of olivia's room "before". last weekend we got it cleaned out and ready for paint. tonight we actually, finally, got the first coat of paint up and i love it! once the second coat is up i'll post pics!

the wall with the window is the wall you see from the doorway. the crib is going on this wall. the dresser on the right is staying there and will also double as the changing table.

this is the left side of the room. the rocking chair came from my dad's parents house - they bought it when jenny and i were born to have a rocker at their house. i'm recovering it in the pink and green polka dot fabric you saw in an earlier post.

this weekend i went to the woodlands for a short visit with my grandmother & aunt (dad's mom and sisiter). after that, on friday afternoon, dad drove me to houston to meet up with some of my closest friends for rach's bachelorette party! i'll post on that sometime this week! sorry i don't have a 31 week photo but i promise i'll take a 32 week photo this coming weekend and post it next week! i think that's all for now...
