Hello! How are you? We have a bit of a less busy week this week, which is nice. We are getting ready for my in-laws to come stay for a couple weeks, so lots of little projects here and there. I suppose I should get their room ready soon as well - they will be here in two days! Then once they leave that room will start getting converted to the baby’s room. We FINALLY get to find out on July 2nd the sex of the baby! I have been waiting impatiently, and finally convinced my doctor to let us have the ultrasound at the beginning of July instead of the end of July.

I haven’t been out to the garden too much. Enough to discover there are more weeds growing then I care to admit (My Organic Vegetable Preen didn’t work quite as good as I had hoped). Since my stomach seems to be growing by the day it seems to get harder and harder to pull those weeds, but I do a little here and there. We also have had a few days of rain so I haven’t had to go out and water for a few days. Speaking of rain… we had an exciting storm yesterday morning.

We woke up at about 3:30 a.m. to a big thunderstorm, but it didn’t feel like anything too out of the normal - just a typical midwest storm. However, then shortly before 4:00 there was a HUGE crash of thunder - the kind that shakes your house and your body. Matt at first thought perhaps our house got hit by lightning, but eventually we discovered it was the tree right outside our window that got hit. It sent wood flying quite a ways and left us with a tree with no bark. Here is a picture (but you really have to see it in person to get the full effect).

Well, I have to help my husband with a couple projects so I better run - he is waiting patiently. Take Care!
