I Finally Finished the Baby Quilt!!!

That's right I finished the baby quilt that matches the bedding that I made for the crib. I already wrote about it on my new blog so here is a link to what I wrote so I don't have to write about it twice... Too late. :) Anyway here is the link.

I Am Officially Nothing...

Andrew and I went to our first weekly doctor's appointment yesterday; it's the one where they tell you what to do if you go into labor and check to see where you are with preparing for labor. I am officially not dilated, not effaced and the baby hasn't dropped into the birth canal yet. Fortunately the baby is hanging out head down. Who knows if it will stay that way, but it's been head down for the past two weeks if not more. So the odds are good that baby will stay that way. *I hope*I hope*I hope*

I've been really good about walking 3 miles twice a week. Once is on Thursday with the Stroller Brigade and I've been lucky enough to have a willing walking partner in Lauren. Today I took Andrew walking with me on the Stroller Brigade's route. It was nice but I think we started out a little too late in the morning; we were too hot by the end of the walk. "They" say that walking is a good way to help prepare baby for labor. I don't know if "they" are right but I'm willing to give it a try. I'm going to take Andrew on another walk tomorrow to see how I handle walking 2 days in a row, and then I will try to walk more than just 2 days a week.

I like walking for the "health" of it. :)

Brownie Yummy Goodness

I went to a baby shower a couple of weeks ago and someone there made this super yummy dessert. I don't know what she calls it but I have decided to call it Brownie Yummy Goodness. :) It is very easy and very YUMMY! I thought that I would share it with everyone.

*Recipe Notes* I'm not sure what size of pudding box you need I only had a large one and it turned out really good. I also only made one batch of brownies and thought that 2 would make it even better.*

Brownie Yummy Goodness

Ingredients:
Brownies (either make or buy the equivalent of 2 9x9 pans of brownies)
1 box of chocolate pudding mix
1 can of sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup water
1 16 oz container of cool whip

Directions:
1. Crumble the brownies into small pieces (1"x1" or so)
2. Mix the chocolate pudding, sweetened condensed milk, water, and 8 oz of cool whip together.
3. Mix the crumbled brownies with the mixture you made in #2 and spread out in a 9x12 pan.
4. Spread the rest of the cool whip on top.
5. Refrigerate for at least an hour.
6. Dig in!

Stuff I Made

So just for fun I decided to create a new blog specifically for stuff that I've made the link is: http://MorganMadeStuff.blogspot.com. Some of it I have already talked about on this blog, but I have a lot more new and old craftiness that I am going to post. There are a couple of things in progress right now that I can't talk about because they are awesome gifts for people for Christmas, but I'll be sure to post them up after Christmas. :) Hurray for being crafty!!

Today is 36 Weeks

Officially I have 4 weeks or 28 days left. We are hoping to have this baby either right on time or a little early. The full moon this month is on the 12th so who knows maybe we'll have the baby around then. :) I'm to the point that I don't think we could be physically anymore ready. We have clothes and diapers and blankets and a place for the baby to sleep. That's all you really need right?

I guess we need a name too. We've got a list and we're working on it. Right now we have more girls names on the list than we do boys names. Which is funny since I have had a bunch of people tell me that they think I'm carrying high so it must be a girl. :) I don't know about that but I can still breathe so I don't think I'm carrying that high.

I haven't really started nesting yet either. Andrew was joking that my nesting will be me telling him what to clean; just because I told him to clean the bathroom before people came over for Thanksgiving. I have been crafting a lot I've finished up one crocheted blanket and putting the finishing touches on another. And I've got quite a few other projects that I need to get finished before Christmas.

This picture is me at 35 weeks and 4 days and yes the pants are supposed to be capris.
