Monday Morning

The weekend went by way to fast, probably cause we were fairly busy?! Friday night we went over to the inlaws to see how FIL's trip to Cancun was. Sounded like he had a really good time, how could you not with the sandy beaches and sun all day long? ;) Then Saturday hubby and I went out to my brothers to babysit the kids. That was pretty uneventful, my nephew had soccer most of the afternoon and my niece slept most of the afternoon so all we really had to do was feed them lunch and keep them entertained for a few hours. It was nice to see them again, we left at 5:30 and headed for supper, I was going to stop by my Dad's house and give him his copies of the ultrasound pics but since it was so late and we were hungry we decided not to. His birthday is this Friday anyway so we will go over there then. Then on Sunday I went to the Welcome Wagon thing with my Mom, it wasn't half as big as I thought it would be and the room was very crowded! With all the baby buggies and my Mom's walker, then they had all these chairs set up in the middle of the room for presentations and the booth's around the edges. It got a little squishy once the room filled up! I was surprised to see booths for the Bridal Shower, ReMax (real estate) and a booth full of candles? There was really only one booth that I found usefull and that was the diaper service one. She asked if she could tell me about their diapers and I mentioned how we are making our own cloth diapers but I had a few questions about using either a 'wet' or 'dry' pail for the dirty diapers. She explained the differences to me pretty good and sudgested the dry pail as being the better way to go. She also said that I could buy their pail (which was really nice) and if I needed any rubber pants they sell them as well. My MIL already bought enough rubber pants though so I won't be needing anymore of them, it's not like you have to change them everytime you change a diaper!? But I definately think I will buy their pail with some air fresheners! I'm not sure if I would go again to a welcome wagon, I didn't get any coupons and only a few free things - one tiny sample of bum cream, one diaper, some pencils, a candle and Smarties from the Tupperware booth? I thought I would get more coupons or maybe even win a door prize!! :) We left before all the prize's were handed out and headed for lunch. But first we stopped and played some nickle slots at the casino! Of course I lost, I don't play very often and really had no idea what I was doing!? I baked some banana blueberry muffins when I got home, they turned out really good - I will have to post the recipe here tomorrow. They were low fat to begin with but then I subed a few things to make it even less fat and it still turned out really good, I was actually kinda surprised! ;) LOL
