Weekend Review: Our new house guests

This weekend seemed to fly by. It was a long, relaxing one. I honestly didn't think I did alot, but I did. I just didn't over do myself, like I tend to do. I got a lot done around the house, so I'm pleased with that.

Friday we had our ultrasound, and baby boy is weighing in at 4 pounds and 11 ounces, 83% tile if I remember correctly. He went down a little in %, which was good the doctor said, but he is still bigger then normal. Overall though, he is perfectly healthy, and "is a great looking baby" as the doctor said. Now that I pretty much feel that the nursery is complete, I AM READY FOR THIS BABY.

Yep, I said it... I am about as ready as I can be. Maybe, just excited to see him and meet him, and well, lets be frank, NOT be pregnant anymore. 32 weeks this week, and it still feels like an eternity, but is only 7 weeks until 40... (gasp)

We didn't many good pictures of little man, he was being super stubborn (just like his dad already) and wouldn't move, he had his face buried and hands cover his face. We did get one picture that you can see his cute little nose and lips.

I just love looking at my baby boy!

Saturday my husband came home with some new house guests. He was over at a friends who recently cut down a tree and happen to find a nest of baby... wait... ok... squirrels.

Yes, baby squirrels. We started with 4, but unfortunately, are down to 3, and more then likely will be down to 2. Two of the babies fell out of the nest inside the tree when the tree fell, we believe they suffered some internal injuries, they just aren't as lively as the other two who were still in side the tree. We figured out they are about 5 weeks old. They are JUST opening their eyes, so we have to still hand feed them. They are cute I must say. It's not everyday that you can hold a baby squirrel. I am interested to see how they turn out when they get older. We haven't decided 100% what will be done with them, whether we release them or not... I mean, how cool would it be to have a pet squirrel?! BUT... they are wild animals, so at this point, were just trying to make sure they live and grow. Hopefully, we can get the other one (who we think is hurt) to begin to eat more, but it is a struggle. We can't say that we haven't tried for them.

Aren't they just the cutest?!
