Dinner

Yesterday we had a very nice dinner with Ray, Patty, Doug and Paula. Man, that was fun :)

North of Baltimore

Today, Frank and I checked out a little bit of the area that is north of the place Patty and Ray live. Look how beautiful it is here.

This was a horse farm and it really looked like in the movies so I had to take a picture, I've never seen any of this in real:






Of course did we go into the Harley Store... I thought this one looked cool. Made as a 'barn':

Happy Thanksgiving Dinner

And also we had a very delicious Thanksgiving Dinner with a Turkey of course, mashed and sweet potatoes, corn, cranberry sauce, beans, stuffing, Sauerkraut and Rosenkohl. Man... it was sooo delicious... would've loved to eat much more. But I didn't wanna feel like being ready to deliver a turkey right here and now *lol*.

Ray was cutting the turkey into nice pieces:

Me, Patty and Jake:

Was that delicious....

Did you notice? Zoe moved into her second to last flower... uiuiui... she's almost here. I have to enjoy her in my belly as much as I can. It goes way to quick. I feel awesome and enjoy every minute of the rest of the pregnancy.

31 weeks

Another week gone already... 9 more weeks to go.

Here our belly... i'm telling you... it never looks the same:

Disgusting grease

Grease the musical is totally cool, but not if you find all that grease in the oven. I cleaned the inside of the one oven the other weekend and now Frank takes the front apart to get the glass cleaned. He took out a lot of grease... *urgh*... The people who owned this house before us, left the house in a very good condition... but you can tell they spent a whole lot time in the kitchen and cooked/ baked A LOT!!! Over the Thanksgiving weekend we'll get the kitchen floors redone :)... I'm a little afraid of the dust from the sanding of the wooden floors but on the other hand I bet it'll look awesome in the end. Just a little bit more cleaning for me to do afterwards :(... we'll see... maybe it's not too bad.

King Bed - just like heaven

What a dream... we finally took out the Queen Bed apart and put down our new King mattresses... is that comfortable. And then additional to the comfortable mattresses we bought a mattress pad. Look how big this bed is :)We love this bed, haven't spent a night in it yet but did some testing:
Here for the Europeans ;)... the box spring is on the floor (for now until we find a nice bedroom set we love and can afford). Then the king mattress that has an additional pillow top on it already (that was already comfi enough) and THEN we bought this very dreamy mattress pad (down) which lets you think you're in heaven. The bed comforter we'll put on top of all the sheets so it'll warm us at night because we sleep with open windows and it can become very cold in Michigan ;).
Now we're waiting on the washing machine to get the sheets and pillow cases washed and then we'll have a very good night tonight (not that we slept bad in the Queen, but we just love a King size bed). The other good thing is now, when Zoe has a bad night, no problem... she'll have enough space in our bed without us three squeezing together, we can just all spread out and have a good night sleep.

Talking about Zoe, she's very mean today... stretches into places and kicks that are not very comfortable. That's her paying me back probably because I poke and try to feel her sometimes ;). Also she is positioned so low nowadays that I have to run to the restroom every 30 minutes *rolling eyes*...
