Our weekend

Last weekend my mom and I went to visit my brother in Austin while Addison went hunting with dad at the ranch.  Add got the first buck of the season at the Morris Ranch!

 Mom and I got to Austin Friday night and were so tired so we asked Trav to come to the hotel and eat there.  It was nice, relaxing and we went straight to bed after.  Saturday morning we slept in, watched TV, got room service and played with Millie (yes she went with us) until we finally decided we should probably leave the room and get out and see a little bit of Austin.  We hit up "The Domain" shopping center which was amazing!  It just so happened to be "Dogtober Fest" so everyone and their mom had at least one dog with them so Millie fit right in!  Every store and restaurant was so pet friendly which was nice because we didn't want to leave Millie in the hotel room even though she loved watching the canoers on the lake.

 Mom and I sat and people/dog watched for a long time over a really late lunch/early dinner while Travis finished up work.  Once he was off we picked him up and he took us to another pet friendly restaurant where we bundled up and sat outside and had hot chocolate and appetizers for dinner.  

 It was really good to get to see Travis and get away for the weekend.  I love the atmosphere in Austin, all the trees, bike/walking paths and that every place is pet friendly. 

A few other changes:  I am now 19 weeks pregnant and starting to feel pretty big and uncomfortable.  Yes, I realize I am only halfway there.  Will I ever get my flat tummy/no love handles/regular bra size back?  

I also got a little crafty last week and made some things for the gender reveal party and hung a few wreaths around the house. 

Addison says the above wreath reminds him of a witch's hair and brings bad vibes into the house.  I like it.

We took the down the TV that was hanging above the mantle in the "wood room" (extra sitting and dining room that has wood floors) and put it in our room so it would actually get used.  I put up this book page covered canvas that I made last Christmas and attached a mini wreath to it.  This room is currently filled with garage sale stuff that we are having this Saturday morning.  If you want our address for the garage sale email me at charleeanntempleton@gmail.com!

I have not been feeling very good so I've been laying low, cleaning out closets and getting some sleep in.  There are definitely days when I miss working at the bank (as an HR Specialist) and then there are days when I am thankful to be home and get some rest in before the baby gets here.  Subbing has been pretty slow lately so I have gotten a lot cleaned out and have caught up on some things that have needed to get done.  

We are so looking forward to seeing our baby again this Friday and finding out our sweet pea is a little boy or a little girl on Saturday.  Be back then!  Have a great week!
