29 1/2 weeks!

Well...Owen and I went to the doctor today...like he had a choice. The doctor couldn't tell if he was still breech, but again said it didn't matter. The whole time I was wondering...if it doesn't matter, than why do you keep bringing it up.?!
Owen's heartbeat was 143 today, he must have been really relaxed! The doctor said all is good. And I start my every 2 week appointments next time.
The best news of all today was...we have a date. He has temporarily set the delivery date for Tuesday, April 28th. Yippee! Now I have something to focus on. :)

Z-O-O!

This weekend I was telling my family that this week was looking like a good time to go to the "Z-O-O!" And Harper shouted from the backseat..."the Zoo!" I was wondering when the spelling thing wasn't going to work anymore. :)
Our main reason for going to the Zoo today was to get some pictures of animals to put in Brother's room. His nursery stuff has some Zoo animals and I thought of hanging a few pictures in big, bold frames over his changing table. So, today I tried out my new lens and got a few pics. These are some of my favorites. I am so ready for Spring and Summer. So is Harper...she keeps talking about flipflops and shorts!

We're Losers!

Just a Quick Harper funny...
So, on Monday we were driving to check out a daycare for Owen and Harper shouts from the backseat..."Mom, We're Losers!" Both Richard and I looked at each other with the strangest faces. I asked what she meant and she explained that we are always losing stuff at our house, thus we are LOSERS! First of all, I had to ask what we lost and she said it was her Barbie. I knew right were it was and gave it to her when we got home in the hopes that she didn't return to school the next day to tell her teacher that the Barlow's were Losers!

Valentine's Weekend!

The weekend began with Harper's Valentine's Party at school on Friday. She made out like a bandit...so much candy! I also got a lot of candy from school. Yummy!

Harper went to get her haircut on Friday afternoon. I got it cut pretty short, but it looks really cute. We had a quiet night Friday, the after effect of all the sugar that day. We ate leftovers at home and made a quick trip to Target.

Saturday morning...Daddy suprised us with Carl's Jr. Breakfast in Bed (my favorite!!!). We even got presents and sweet cards. Harper got a Belle Barbie and I got the movie Can't Buy Me Love! Do you remember that one? Straight out of the 80's! We spent most of the morning with Boppy getting some Prom supplies to start building the props. Harper loves Lowe's and her Boppy, so the morning couldn't have been better. We even got to stop in and see Grandma at work for a few minutes. Saturday night we hosted a Valentine's Dinner for Grandma, Boppy and Grandma T. Richard cooked fabulous steaks, we also had potatoes, corn, and homemade Red Velvet Cupcakes and Chocolate Cake. It really was delicious and a super fun evening. The boys even got in a little Wii Bowling Action. Of course after Harper went to bed, Richard and I watched my new totally 80's movie! :)

Today we went to church and had lunch. I got most of Owen's Newborn/Preemie clothes washed and ready to go! Now I really just need to put the finishing touches on the nursery and we will be ready. Well...ready is a realtive term!

Tonight, Harper went to play with Aunt Melanie and Uncle Cole, while Richard and I went with some friends to the Melting Pot. Oh my gosh...it was delicious. We had cheese fondue for an appetizer, salads, meat marinade fondue for the main course and Flaming Turtle chocolate fondue for desert. Not only was it super yummy, but it was a ton of fun too! If you haven't been, you should give it a try.
