Is it Spring Yet?

OK so I’m not great at the more frequent posts, but I’m working on it. March has been a hectic month so far.
I traveled to Danville, PA to help a friend with the transition that is bringing home baby. I’m certainly glad we are already expecting or I would most definitely have a very bad case of baby fever.
After returning to dreary grey New York- it has been raining nearly everyday making it very bleak (although very good for naps!)- we have been working on the house during Kevin’s Spring Break. With some added motivation, we had our friends planning to come visit for the weekend, we were able to get the bulk of the unpacked mess into the attic and organized. The spare room is nearly ready to be primed- a task Kevin must complete thanks to nasty chemicals in paint. The top coat of paint we are using by a company called FreshAire and has no VOC’s- hippie paint and it means I can paint. Unfortunately, we discovered that our local supplier no longer carries the paint so we ended up stocking up on extra from the closest dealer- in Saratoga Springs. I do not want to have half a hallway done only to discover we can no longer get the color with which we started. (Kudos to those who get the political reference).
In other nerdy news, on our most recent date night I decided to fulfill one of Kevin’s more recent requests for entertainment- teaching me how to play Magic. I have moved with two boxes of nerd gear (one of cards organized by color and type and then alphabetized and one of assorted dice). I quickly learned that Kevin didn’t really remember how to play either- there was much googling of rules. I was then informed that he hadn’t played in some 13 years! I suggested we play pogs next so I could reminisce the games of my generation too!
On to the weekend which we enjoyed with our friends Meg & Adrian. After some Mario playing we went to Glens Falls for ice cream and an evening at the dinner theatre. We watched It’s Complicated, with Meryl Streep and Alec Baldwin. It was very enjoyable the whole way around.
Now, spring break is over and it is back to our regular routine for a few more weeks. With most of our snow gone now I am hoping flowers will begin to bloom and spring will be upon us.
In baby bump news, I am now completely out of all of my pre-pregnancy bottoms. We are scheduled to have another ultrasound on Wednesday so look forward to more photos shortly! Until next time, that’s all from the here.
