mid week randomness.

It's been too long once again, but such is life these days.

Here's a little of what's been going on. 

• We had another doctor's appointment on Monday and all is good with the growing gummi bear. A 17  week bumpdate is coming tomorrow!
• My little sister got engaged a few weeks ago! I'm so excited for her and my future brother in law! They are getting married next July 14th. So in addition to baby stuff, I've also been getting to relive the whole wedding planning process which I have missed terribly.

•  Did you know dogs could be allergic to bee stings? Me neither, until yesterday when poor little Lilly got stung and had a slight anaphylactic reaction. The poor thing was so scared. Luckily, a trip to the vet 5 minutes down the road, some Benadryl and Decadron {a steroid}, and she was back to her old self. 
• We finally ordered a living room couch and it should be here next week! I have lots of house updates to post about. So much to blog, so little time.
• Starting in the end of August I'm cutting back my night shift hours at work a little, with hopes of having a somewhat more normal life. Working two nights a week instead of three should make a big difference and I can't wait.
• Two of my best friends came up this past weekend and we had a blast! I miss them already. Nothing compares to girl's weekends. It was their first time seeing the house and we did a lot of summery Rhode Island things...Newport, Block Island, beach, shopping, & eating!

lunch in Newport. Block Island Sunset.
