Daddy's got a brand new ride!

Happy Monday everyone! It's rainy and disgusting here so not sure if I should change this first sentence from "Happy Monday everyone" to "It's Monday and Raining Everyone...yuck". But it's all good because this week will be a lot of fun. Lots of Valentine's celebratin' to do!
I love holidays! Any excuse to celebrate, give gifts and eat bad food!!! 

This weekend was a mix of busy and chill...but it was nice.
Friday night we stayed in and did make your own pizzas.  (like I said in my earlier post the boys are battling colds)
Saturday, we hit the gym and Tyler went to the playroom. However, I'm starting to see the effects of 7 months of pregnancy....and it ain't good.
Everytime I try to do something strenuous (i.e. the elliptical or bike), I get a cramp in my lower right abdomen..and it won't go away. It stays there until I stop. So last week, when it happened I just moved to the treadmill and walked. This week, I still had the cramp when I was walking.
I'm proud of myself in one regard. When I was pregnant with Tyler I quit working out at 6 weeks. Obviously this time, I've gone much further...but it might be time for me to throw up the white flag until after the baby is born...it's not worth the risk and it makes me extremely uncomfortable! Big bummer. 
After gym time, We headed to the VW dealership to get Ben a new car. We've had my Jeep for over a year now and we like it but Ben has been driving my old 2003 Toyota Corolla (I call her Big Bertha) for almost 4 years. With the new baby coming, Ben needed a car with more space in the back, so we bought a Passat!
Black on Black and it is pretty awesome!


Saturday night Ben went to Pat's birthday party with everyone while I stayed home with Tyler. I was super bummed that I couldn't go. Our sitter ended up cancelling on us at the last minute. She had a business trip conflict and her son had the flu. But the party was another Whirlyball extravaganza (which I can't do cause I'm preggers) and then dinner and drinks at Roswell Tap (which obviously I would be out for the drinking part). 
Ben had a great time, and meanwhile I showed all the neighbors the new car and Tyler got some outdoor playtime in. 
Sunday, we headed to church and then to Dunkin for breakfast. We then headed home and continued our attempt to get organized before the baby comes! I ended the day with a relaxing trip to the nail salon, and then Tyler had our next door neighbor over for a playdate!!!
