Due Date comes and goes

Well folks, we are nearing the end of the due date and it would seem we will not get to meet Baby Timmons today.  But we did get to go see the lights in Torrance last night.  I have seen better decored houses, but the number of houses in this neighborhood that partake in the festivities is amazing - probably about 80%/

Dad's favorite Chirstmas character is Frosty and we found a really neat blow up Frosty last night.

Mom liked this ferris wheel. THey had different Disney characters riding in the buckets!!

 And o course there were the palm trees:

The downside is that mom and dad are making me share my backseat now.  I used to like Baby Duck, but now depise him (for now he gets to ride in the baby carseat).

Today we did not do much - just enjoyed relaxing.  But mom did make dad take a billion pictures of her in front of the tree.

last weekend before D-Day!!

Momma finally finished making pillows for the house.  WE needed some more pillows for outside to make the furniture more comfortable.  Dad says you can never have too many pillows.  Momma was also not happy with the family room - she kept telling dad that it looked like a beige monster threw up in there (beige walls, beige carpet, beige furniture).  So she made pillows for there as well.  Here are some pics of how it ended up  when she was done.

We had a great Thanksgiving - low key as momma was very tired and uncomfortable.  She was sad that she did not get to see "her people."  However, when the Bardolfs got together they skyped her twice so she did not feel left out.  Thanks to Theresa and Mitch for thinking of that!!  Momma showed her belly to everyone who said she finally looks pregnant.  And then the ladies gave her the bad news - it did not appear that she had "dropped" yet.

Sunday momma put the tree up and continued decorating the house during the week - she gets tired so easily now!! Here are some pics of what the house looks like now - momma just sits and stares at the tree every night.  She did not bring much with us in terms of Christmas, so it is not as dressed up as usual.  BUt that is ok since we do not have many surfaces or much space to decorate here.

We went to the beach on Sunday - it was 80 degrees here!! 

Once we got home, dad and I hung out on the couch.


Mom has had a hard week - both Monday and today (Thursday) she did not feel well.  Monday she may have overdone it - she went to the gym in the morning, did some chores, errands, and then came home and crashed around 11 am - she felt sick to her stomach and was very tired.  She has not been back to the gym since - she says she will just walk me from now on.  So Tuesday and Wed. I got my usual long walks - 1.5 miles and 2 miles respectively.  But MOnday and today (Thursday) she watched Hallmark movies all day and dad had to exercise me.  Today's movies were not that good - they were not able to make a 9 month pregnant lady cry!! 
Momma hopes the baby waits to come until Grandma and Aunt Becca get here (Dec. 9th) but is not sure if that baby will wait. . . .
