Good Mail and More

So I love this idea of Good mail. I am not sure if I really have gotten the right idea, so might have to read a little more in depth about it. But I think it is just sending and receiving stuff from the people you love, that makes your day so much better! I have to admit that on days when I know I am going to get a package I tend to go look out the window everytime I hear a truck engine. I even know the approximate time that UPS or Fedex will deliver! And even though 9 out of 10 times the package is for Emma, it still makes it such an exciting day. So anyway yesterday we received some Good mail from my sister Chelsea. She left here on Monday, knowing that Emma really wanted the Hello Kitty jammies from Target (our Target didn't have them in her size) Chelsea was so sweet that as soon as she got home she went and checked her store and sure enough they had the jammies. It took all of 2 minutes for Emma to have the Jammies on! She also sent my a flat iron for my hair...a really nice one that I have needed! Thanks Chels it was great to get a package, especially when we are alone and bored!



Alright I can't figure out how to turn this picture around in the blog...I love our new Apple computer but I am still trying to figure out how to use it! These flowers are from Jon and it was so great to get them. I made a big deal when we were engaged that I didn't want flowers for every little reason, and especially as a "Get out of trouble ticket." I haven't decided if it was a mistake or a good thing. I really haven't gotten flowers too many times, but every time he has brought them home or sent them to me, I totally remember and always feel so special. I tend to think quality is better than quanity! It was such a pleasant surprise to get them yesterday. I was in my room picking up (i will get to that in a minute) and Emma said Mom there is a guy at the door with flowers. I love all the colorful spring flowers! It really brightened my day. And it is nice to know that Jon feels bad about being away for so long. So thanks Jon for the beautiful flowers, I am glad that you will be able to see them in just 2 more nights! YEAH!



This picture really has nothing to do with good mail, more of just what I have been up to. I was totally bummed when it just didn't work out to have anybody come this weekend. Plane tickets were out of control. And I just think money could be better spent. Plus this baby is bound to come out sooner or later...and then my Mom will be here! It is really funny that when I was pregnant with Emma I had her room all put together and all her clothes washed and ready for her when I was 6 or 7 months pregnant. It made the end seem so long! Well this time I finally have gotten all the clothes washed and folded and put away! I still have to find several more things upstairs to be all the way done, but at least I made some progress! I also didn't really believe in the whole 'nesting' thing with Emma (maybe because our apartment was not hard to keep clean) but Thursday night all of the sudden I had this huge burst of energy (I have been so tired with Jon gone and only getting 5 or 6 hours of sleep) and I knew I had to clean the kitchen. So I was scrubbing every little thing. I am not sure if it falls under the nesting stage or if I am realizing how much needs to be done before the baby comes and before we move! Which will all be happening in the next 7 weeks! Oh and just to update on Jon being gone. I am actually doing pretty good now. I have gotten over the pizza guy coming back. And I actually got in bed at 11 last night. But I am so excited for Jon to get home!
