I know, I am bad at this

Larry sent me an email yesterday telling me I was not good at keeping my blog updated & I agree! Oh well! I blame it not so much on the writing, but the lack of pictures we have been taking (and since I want to push this off - I am going to blame that on Chris... hehe)

Exciting news - we have a 3D-4D ultrasound scheduled for this upcoming Sunday at 11 am!! I am very excited to see Stella Mae in action and promise (cross my heart) to post the pictures and video this weekend. We will also take some new pics of me to show how big I am getting.

On the work front - I have 10 more working days in Vegas before I head back to Phoenix - yeah! After some contemplation, the powers that be within Perini have decided that upon my return to Phoenix I will not be working in the Phoenix office and will start short term. Part of me is excited for this because I will have time to relax, harass friends, and get things done. Part of me is scared because as we all know - I am not good at being bored. Luckily I have my masters thesis to get completed and there is plenty of organization to be done around the house (blah).
I am also trying to tell myself that I will still get plenty of exercise since my body is used to walking around the jobsite all day. I figure I will take a walk in the morning or utilize the dusty Wii fit, and then when Chris gets home from work take the dogs for a walk (which they will love)

Our house - the countertops and new fixtures look fantastic! I am really happy with the way things turned out, especially now that we have the faucets working :) Now we have to finish our master shower and then change out the towel bars and other fun accents :) I am happy to say after that, we should be done with home improvement projects for quite some time!
The rental house is also undergoing some renovations. Our lovely past tenants thought it was appropriate to not only trash the house, but also smoke in the house - so Chris has been doing lots of work up there. This week he got the inside of the house prepped to paint while the wonderful painters of MKB are working on the exterior of the house - I am really excited to see what it looks like. Speaking on painting - the Sherwin Williams website has become one of my new favorite things - I love it! You choose a color and it shows complimenting colors - good thing I know I am only allowed to paint under limited circumstances or I would be going nuts!
