We had a "rash" of activity this weekend.....

Boy, where do I start? Dad and Thomas were down for the weekend and between the whole team we accomplished a ton!!!

Dad washed all of the bedding and baby clothes, he washed and organized all of the bottles, finished some last minute decorating, fixed the blinds, got the crib completely ready and drove me around all weekend to shop (a task which is increasingly difficult with this belly in the way).

On a related note, I was telling Dad about the scar I have on my stomach from a boiling water incident. Josh adds his two cents and says, "Yeah, on Mom's big, HUGE belly!" Nice, huh?

Dustin mowed, fixed another mower and re-sealed the driveway.

Let me tell you...the driveway looks amazing!! Dustin did a great job!

Sunday morning was the March of Dimes walk and Josh and I went down to help hand out water at the K-mart stop. Josh had so much fun.

It was a perfect morning and as each walker passed I was reminded how blessed we are to have a healthy son and a healthy baby on the way. Seeing all these moms and dads, grandmas and grandpas, brothers and sisters walk for this cause was truly inspiring. Most had "Team" shirts with names of babies who didn't have a chance to live in this world. Again...I was overwhelmed with appreciation.

The best part of the walk is shown below...

Way to go, Titi!!

With such a big weekend everyone was WIPED by last night. Dad and I found the "boy" outfit and came home to find this...

Pretty much says everything!

Now this morning I take Josh to Jaime's and as I turn onto her street he says his neck itches. I assume he just got a bug bite. Uh, nope. He has an awful rash all over his neck and ears. So I call the doctor's office from Jaime's.

They said to give him some Benedryl and watch to see if it spreads to his face. So I put him back in the car and we stopped to pick up the medicine and a couple of movies. I have to admit, after such a busy weekend, it couldn't be better timing for an unexpected day off!!

Finally, 5 weeks from today I should be in recovery right now and holding a brand new baby!!! I should take some of Josh's Benedryl, because I am literally "itching" with anticipation!!!
