Post Labor Day Ramblings

 Happy Wednesday!

Hope you had a good Labor Day weekend. I obviously took an extra day to recover. The weekend itself was the same old for us, I worked and Aaron led worship at church. Monday was a work holiday for him (lucky) and I had to work 2^nd shift at the hospital. We made the best of it though. Aaron woke up early and made us a pancake breakfast, yum! While eating our pancakes, we schemed of ways to take advantage of my dad’s FANTASTIC waffle breakfasts for 12 weeks straight when I’m on maternity leave. 

Aaron & I have been back and forth since we bought our house on when to buy a new washer and dryer. A series of unfortunate laundry events recently took place and helped us solidify our decision.  We had already shopped around so we knew what we wanted and what we expected to pay. We went to Lowe's and took advantage of the Labor Day sales and saved a bundle on our new washer and dryer. They are a special order, so we have to wait a while before they will arrive, but I am so excited to have pulled the trigger. I have big dreams for our laundry room my friends.  **Update: the washer/dryer links work when using a desktop, but don't seem to work from all mobile devices. If you are really curious, we got a Samsung 5 cu. feet high efficiency washer and a Samsung 7.4 cu feet high efficiency electric dryer with steam cycles.**

Thanks to Aaron the nursery is primed and ready to be painted tonight!  I have been staring at an empty room for 5 months and am so excited about all the things that will be going in the nursery (mostly the little dude himself).  Even though, yes, they are just things, I think some tangible objects just might help me wrap my mind around the fact that soon enough our house will be home to one more person.  Hopefully after seeing the room painted I'll be able to make some of my ideas come to life. 

(Dear future second child, sorry in advance that you're nursery will probably never receive this much attention, but I have a lot more time on my hands now... I promise I'll love you the same ;))
