Seven months along now; 31 weeks today. The baby has really grown over the past month as you can see by my six and seven month photos. I don't think this t-shirt will cover my belly next month!
I did a quick count of remaining days of work. If I stay until January 12, as originally planned, I only have 29 work days left. Not many! And perhaps even fewer than that--it seems somewhat likely I'll have to leave work sooner, especially if we have to go to Edmonton.
It's only 8:00 p.m. and I'm so tired. I'm going to get ready for bed right after this and I'll fall asleep with one of the kids. It drives me nuts to go to bed so early, but I surrender.

The past weekend was good, but not very restful. I worked Friday morning and then was the parent helper at Sophia's preschool in the afternoon. It was Sophia's "In the Spotlight" day and she loved it! Friday evening was my regular girls night out (the third Friday of every month) and we went to a movie, Just Like Heaven, at the cheap theatre. It was cute. A romantic comedy--definitely a "chick flick". We actually had tickets for 40-Year Old Virgin which is supposed to be really funny, but we got there too late and couldn't sit together so we just went into another theatre. On Saturday, I went to a mini scrapbooking retreat with friends. Always enjoyable! I don't think I'll be able to do that for quite awhile now. Neil took the girls to the farm and he also went hunting that day. Many thanks to Donna and Lou for taking care of the girls all day! On Sunday, I went over to a friend's house in the afternoon for a couple of hours and then Mom also came to our house to visit for a few hours. She spent a lot of time doing "crafts" with the girls which was really nice.
It was the fifth weekend in a row we had plans. Last weekend, we attended my cousin Jayne's lovely wedding reception and dance in Churchbridge. I do want to post some photos from the wedding but I haven't had a chance--especially because I need to go to bed so early on weeknights. Next weekend, we have no plans! I'm looking forward to that.
