Us, lately

Although things tend to slow down during the winter months (helloooo hybernation), we've been keeping busy!

• Hubs has been a busy little bee with his final semester of classes. (So proud of you, babe!) He has also been shadowing a friend of ours at his business once a week after work to gain some additional experience for post-graduation resume building.
• I have been trying to work out as much as possible and keep healthy. Its SO nice to come home from work and not have a masters thesis to write! I can work out, read a book, watch TV- whatever I WANT! I know this will change drastically when baby C comes, so I'm soaking it in now. :)
• Speaking of working out, this week we joined the fancy schmancy gym around our way, Lifetime Fitness. We've been eyeing this baby up for a few years and finally  took the plunge. It is a lot more expensive than our cheep little $20/month gym membership but offers so much more. I've been dying to take fitness classes and get back into the pool and hubs has been dying to have an indoor basketball court. Our new gym has so much to offer and we are super excited to take advantage of it. I think it was a smart choice for our little family! They have a super nice childcare facility, and indoor pool for lessons (yay mommy and me!), an outdoor pool in the summer, basketball leagues for the hubs and a ton of fitness classes. I will be taking advantage of some Zumba and Yoga this weekend!
• I am in nesting overdrive. Nesting is no joke. It hits you all of a sudden and you have a list of 1001 house projects you want to get done before the baby comes. Worst part...you have to start NOW. Over the past few weeks I've been on cleaning and organizing overdrive. I cleaned out both of our closets, got rid of a TON of old clothes, organized our pantry and have plans to tackle the crawl space (with Hubs's help!). We have also painted the guest room and hung new items on the wall in there, my parents painted the nursery, we hung a new mirror and got a new rug for our entry way and rearranged out living room. Up next on my list is our bedroom. I want to get new end tables and mount our tv. I also want to get some plants and a piece of artwork for above our bed. :) I seriously can.not.stop!
• We finished our baby registries (Target and Babies R Us!)  I completed this task over several weeks. I read a lot of reviews, researched a lot and enlisted the help of our mommy and daddy friends. I can't wait to have him here with us so we can try out all his new things. :)
• This weekend we have plans to have a day date tomorrow and of course, watch the Ravens win the superbowl! Looking forward to a nice relaxing weekend!

Have a great weekend everyone!
