Peach Fuzz



Gleaning at the church farm was a hit. I was cursing Kyle and myself for picking so many peaches. We picked two big coolers and a big black garbage bag full of peaches, and I was sick of peeling them after 4 or 5 hours. I dried 2-3 gallons, froze 4-5 gallons, and bottled 7 quarts and 12 pints (approximately). My cute little mammy taught me how to be a pioneer and bottle since I have never done it before. It was much easier then making apricot jam that is for sure. She was telling me she would bottle 100 quarts a day, my response was I would shoot myself before I did that. I think the peach fuzz was getting to me, that sounds a little drastic now that I am all done with those darn peaches. I learned a few lessons in doing this, run hot water over peaches to get the peel off easier, when drying the peaches cut in half then cut the half in thirds. I cut mine too thin and lets just say one full dryer down the drain because I couldn't scrape the peach off of the dryer. Don't put picked peaches in big black garbage bag, they just all mush together and you end up ruining a ton. Don't pick so many next year!

Boating

The Wilson boaters came home for a whole entire week! Their boat got fixed so we seized the moment to take it to Sand Hollow. Never mind that is was 44 degrees going out there and only 70 degrees when we left! The water felt amazing!

31 weeks


Kyle and I signed up for a supplemental insurance like Aflac, but to get the two grand you have to be on the insurance for nine months before the baby pops out. Well my nine month mark is November 1st and guess when my due date is? Yep November second, so today we told Dr. Lunt that he had to do everything possible so this little baby doesn't pop out before November 1st:) He told us some statistic on first time moms like 90% give birth on their due date or a week later. So the stats are on our side, if you know of any good tips to keep the bun in the oven leave a comment:)
31 week stats
gained 0 pounds the last two weeks (wow first time for everything)
so total weight gain still 17 pounds
measuring exactly at 31 weeks
baby's heart rate 140 bpm
back doesn't hurt anymore:)
baby hates when I semi recline or lay on my back (kicks like crazy)
I am still leaning towards the idea of no epidural
no cravings
I eat tons of ice, but did before the pregnancy
I can now take my prenatals without throwing up thirty minutes later
Can't believe I only have 9 more weeks

Projects and Nesting

Kyle thinks I am NESTING (thanks funderburks for giving him the right vocab:) Whatever it is I am accomplishing a lot!!I bought this filing cabinet at a yard sale last saturday (thanks Angie:) and had wild ideas for it. I spray painted it and mod podged fabric to the drawers. This is how it ended up looking. Now our printer is no longer sitting on the floor, it has a home:)
Before and after pictures of our front bathroom. We used to refer to it as the ghetto:) I retextured the walls (pain in the butt hire somebody nextime), painted cabinets, put new hardware on cabinets, painted ceiling and walls, painted tree trunks and bird on wall. All by myself I might add:) and it was under a hundred dollars:)
