Crown, more cleaning/organizing

Well, I finally feel almost back to normal from my cold/flu/whatever I had. :P So, in between cleaning and organizing, I've been watching the Cosby Show on Youtube. haha I never knew how much I liked that show! Especially, for those of you who are girls, the one where the men are pregnant. lol I had Jared watch it with me b/c I couldn't stop laughing. Let's just say I thought it was a little more funny than he did. :P But, I think most girls would enjoy it, and most husbands who's wives are or have been pregnant. It's called "the Day the Spores landed."

Anyway, here's a mini tour of our house and things we have done/gotten for it.

This is an antique upright grand piano that was given to us by very good friends, the Wellings. We decided to add some decorations, so on top is a "Family" sign that was given to us for Christmas from Jared's sister Melinda. To the left is a cute pocketwatch clock Jared got for Christmas, and to the right is a really cool old book of how the Hymns came to be. Then, sitting where a book should is some pictures from when we were dating/engaged. So, there's our cute little antique area. :P

This is the bottom half of a dresser we got for free!! One morning I decided to look on Craigslist and there was a dresser for free. I though, "I can't pick it up, and it's probably too far away". But, I decided to look it up anyway and the person lived about 2 blocks away!! They put the dresser outside and said they wanted someone to come take it but not to knock on the door. So, I drove over to see if it was still there, and it was! The top part is really pretty with a mirror, which I'll show later. The dresser is pretty old and scratched, but after cleaning this part up and tightening screws, it looks pretty good! I still need to work on the top part. Anyway, so my really awesome visiting teacher came to help me load it and even brought her truck to load it in. She was very sweet! Jared was surprised when he came home and I told him that she and I lifted it. haha.

This is our entertainment center, that I showed you when it was empty. We've found some things to put in it, including that TV that my friend Laurice and her roommie Mary gave us! It fits perfectly! The baby high chair is so cute, and my parents gave it to us. :P I can't wait for our little girl to sit in it!

This is the top half of our bookcase that I got at that auction for 10 dollars! We temporarily moved the couch in front of it, but I decided to take a picture anyway. The top two shelves were empty, so I decided to put some signs and pics of us. My sister Aimee and her husband Josh made the two signs in the middle. They are both very pretty! the top one says our names and our wedding date.

Well, there's the end of the mini tour for now. Last week, I went to the dentist b/c I've felt like I had a cavity for about 6 months now. I didn't go to the dentist b/c we didn't have good insurance until December, and then we were moving...anyway, I didn't have any cavities! It's been over 2 years since I've been, so I was relieved to hear this. However, I do have a cracked tooth and they put a crown on it on Tuesday. Not very fun, and the numbness took 5 hours (I'm not exaggerating) to wear off. I was happy to be able to eat, b/c my tongue was so numb that it was hard to swallow.

I still haven't been able to start substitute teaching b/c of all these hoops I have to jump through. But, hopefully I'll be able to start here before the baby comes.

Speaking of the baby, I'm 30 weeks tomorrow! About 10 more to go! I had a doctor's appointment today, and everything's great! She's so active, and she kicked the doctor again. :P However, I am getting a little nervous for the labor part of this. So, if anybody has any advice or knows anything, I would be happy to hear/talk! Here's some pics of me now, at 29 weeks 6 days.

Yup, I am taking them in the bathroom. :P Sorry, it's the only place we have a mirror.

Tonight we have a ward dinner party, which I'm excited about. Yummy food, date with my hubby, and getting to know people in the ward. :) Yay for weekends!
