Random bits of life

…and y’all know what that means. I’d better get my butt moving and get this nursery put together. Yup, peanut has yet to make his/her debut.

I’m starting week #2 of M-leave and so far I haven’t been too bored. 😉 I’ve already made a couple of trips to The Container Store (I just can’t leave that place without a shopping bag!), made a bunch of sweets for the home (another plum tart, nutella gelato and meringue cookies with chocolate chips and walnuts), and am slowly getting peanut’s room ready. Lesson learned – don’t wash bumpers or bassinet skirts, even washing & drying them in the delicate cycle, they’ll shrink anyways. Grrr…

There was another baby shower this past weekend with friends and family and peanut’s received even more loot. It was another lovely tea in Menlo Park. Though it was nice, I think I prefer the ambiance at Lovejoy’s better.

Phase 2 is coming along quite nicely…and quickly, I might add. Fences are up (doors & gates, not yet), pipes for irrigation and electricity have been laid and maybe, just maybe we’ll have a functional yard in a couple weeks, maybe even before peanut’s here. Will post some pix this weekend.
