I realize that it’s Wednesday now, so I’m a little late in talking about last weekend.  But I’ve been a little bit overwhelmed by the exhaustion of being 7 1/2 months pregnant, so I’m just gonna let this one slide (hopefully you will too).

This weekend we went to IKEA on Friday night to pick up a few odds and ends.  We moved a large picture from our dining room into our bedroom, so the huge blank wall had been staring at me for a week, begging to be filled up by something.  I don’t know if any of you have looked into large photographs or prints, but man are they pricey.  We ended up blowing up a couple photographs we already had and framing them in IKEA frames.  The result was both inexpensive and awesome — I’ll post about it next week.

On Saturday we decided to try out Timeless Coffee.  Even though everything is vegan, I have to say that my almond milk mocha was actually quite tasty.

KC got the cold-brew coffee, which was so delicious, but sadly doesn’t come in decaf.  I’m definitely missing my favorite cold brew these days (I know caffeine is allowed during pregnancy, but I haven’t had caffeine in over a year so it makes me feel like I’m on meth when I have it — or, what I assume being on meth feels like.  Y’know, like you could really go to town on some grout lines if someone handed you a toothbrush.)

After our coffee outing, KC got to work on some house projects while I relaxed on the couch (like I said, I’m pretty sure he’s having some sympathy nesting pains these days).  It was pretty hot out on Saturday, so I stuffed my 30 week belly into some cutoffs, because I have no shame, even with this giant basketball belly:

We headed down to my parents’ house that night because one of my showers was the next day.  My mom, sister and grandma threw the shower, and it was pretty freaking amazing.  I couldn’t really imagine a better day.  And just check out this amazing diaper cake that my aunt made:

Baby Deatsch is really feeling the love already.  She is one lucky lady to have all these wonderful women in her life! 🙂

After we got home from the shower, we went through our gifts and KC decided to take the baby carrier for a spin:

That’s the Ergo 360 with 11 1/2 pounds of adorableness inside.  And by the way, Penny did not mind being the guinea pig one bit for the trial run.

I have a feeling that Penny is going to have a wee bit of jealousy when this little peanut arrives!
