Thursday Five

I didn't know about this until today, but Mrs. Gambizzle over at Life as a Sailor's Girl took Thursday Five over from Keely at Mannland5 and I've decided to help her keep it going.  She made a new button for it and everything! How cutie is it?

So you guys know the deal...you post about 5 things about the week that have made you:

Happy

Joyful

Appreciative

Giggly

or

Excited

 

and then head on over to Mrs. Gambizzle's to get linked!  So here we go:

 

1.  I got home early today...so not only did I get to come home to see my sweet darling and our 2 furbabies (I'm counting our honorary fur-baby, Chester, since yes, he is still here--Malu just won't give him up!), but I am home with enough time to update this blog!  If I don't get up really early to post in the morning, I usually don't get to do it until late in the evening and by then, I'm just plumb tired!

 

2.  I found out that Mrs. Gambizzle gave me another blog award, which I'm hella stoked about.  Thank you so much!  I'll be posting and passing out that award and another award that I received sometime last week. Man, awards all over the place! 

 

3.  I'm not sure that I'm ecstatic that Baby V and I have officially reached our 39th week--because I was so sure she' be here by now!  But I am happy that we're healthy and well at this point in time.  Is it bad that I just want her to get here already?  I mean, I'm at the point where I'm just getting tired of being tired (from tossing and turning all night long from the discomfort--man, I can't wait to be able to sleep on my back or my stomach again!) and sore--and just being the size of a blimp!  Malu and I are ready to see our baby girl!

 

4.  The girls from work went out to lunch at the Corner Bakery yesterday.  No pictures, but it was so nice to see everyone again (everyone had been on leave for the past two weeks and I'd missed them). OMG...I had these chocolate whoopie pies that were deee-vine!  I wanna go back for more.  In any case, we decided to have a get-together at my friend, Leah's house on Saturday evening.  The theme is Italian/pasta....I wonder what I should make!

 

5.  I sent out my Summer Essentials Swap package (albeit late, I'm sorry!) to my swap partner, Allie at My Marine and Me, the other day.  I can't wait for her to get it!  I've also signed up to participate in Kimberly's Snail Mail Swap.  She's still taking participants until 9:00 tomorrow morning, so if you want to participate, head on over to her blog!

 

Wow, that's a lot of links in one blog.  But hey, if you're interested, just check 'em all out.  You never know what fabulous stuff you'll find...or cool people you'll meet! 

 

Enjoy the rest of your Thursdays everyone!
