Seeing spots




I finally found the time to start a painting project in what will be Jayda's room when we get her moved into it. I've wanted to paint her room since she was born, but just never could decide what to do, then with school stuff, never had the time. So this weekend we took the plunge, went to Lemmon, bought the paint and let the fun begin! What I thought I could get done in a weekend turned out to be a slow moving process that will probably take me the rest of this week to finish. I'm doing polka dots that require two coats of paint, but the end result is going to be soo cute! Jayda loves it already and really wants to get moved into that room. She also really wants to help me paint and continues to ask me every day if she can help now.

We spent our long memorial day weekend at home working on her room and went to Sandquist's for branding. Jed is attending his last branding of the season today, FINALLY! Seems like he's been at a branding about every day since May began. Guess that's the nature of the season. This weekend we are going to Hermosa for the Cattle Drive. It will be the first cattle drive since Grandpa died, therefore the first cattle drive without him present. I'm sure he'll be watching over us as we continue the tradition he started. This is also my last few days of freedom from school. Summer classes start on Monday and we are back at it!

I'm a few days shy of being 30 weeks pregnant. Still can't believe how fast it's going, with just 10 weeks left! Jayda continues to stress out about how unprepared I am! She keeps telling me we need baby food and diapers and she thinks the baby needs a pink potty chair for some reason! She found a magazine with tons of baby supplies, so she's been doing some shopping for me, picking out the highchair, stroller, playpen and everything else we will need. I keep telling her we already have all those things, but she doesn't appear to believe me. The baby is approximately 2 pounds and very active. I have another Dr appointment in a few weeks, then she'll want to start seeing me more often. I'm definitely going to have a talk with her about my "birth plan" and how she better not cut my epidural off when it's time to start pushing this time, or someone will get hurt. No way she's going to do that to me two times.
