And it starts.........

Yep, it does. Today starts the fun of going out and buying the food and decorations, gifts for the babyshower. I have my list all written out and ready to go. In an hour I will drop Rebecca off to her sister Emma's house, and I will take Daniel with me. He is such a good boy when he goes shopping with his mommom. I enjoy having him go with me. Besides I can seatbelt him into the cart and he can't run around like the girls try to do, lol. I know by the end of the day I will be totally wiped out. The past 2 nights Rebecca has gotten up 4 times, twice each night. Tuesday it was 1:30am and again at 4:30am. Last night it was 11:30pm and 1:30am. And of course it is me who gets up with her each time. I don't expect Jim too, because he has to get up at 6am to get ready for work. If he were younger I'd ask him for help, but he is 52 yrs old and works his butt off to provide for us. Last week he worked 58 hours, so far this week (not including today) he has worked 34 hours. All these emergency calls coming at 7 and 8pm and he has to go out and do the autoglass cause he's been on call. And not getting home until after 10pm from them. He's worn out, which is why I let him sleep and I get up.

So, today I buy food, decorations and gifts, tomorrow I go and do set up of food (organization) Saturday go to Emma's and make the potato salad, deviled eggs, pasta salad, fruit salad, and a tossed salad, then on sunday it is decorate the back yard, go pick up the balloons and cook the burgers, hotdogs and chicken and set all the food out. And the party will begin, lol. And I have to remember to delete camera card, and put in fresh batteries, because I am taking lots and lots of pictures.

Received a package in the mail from Jims parents for Emma's babyshower. They sent her a dress size 6 to 9 mos and a sweatsuit outfit, 18mos. Maybe next year she'll fit in them, lol. It's the thought that counts though right? Dan's ex SIL gave Emma a bunch of clothes from her granddaughter who has grown out of them. There must be 50 pairs of little shoes. I never knew they made that many baby shoes in those styles, lol. I'll have to take a picture of them all and show you. My favorites are lil pink ballerina shoes, they are so cute. There's even a lil tutu that goes with the shoes.

Well, I guess I'd better get ready and get things together and leave. I have a busy day for sure. I also have to go to the postoffice. Busy, busy, busy, lol.

Oh, weather is suppose to be rain and storms today starting around noon. Nice.  Daniel and I will be out in it too. Take care all and enjoy your day.

Love you all lots........................CINDY
