Weekend with my mom

My mom came to visit and help me get things organized before the Tamale arrives.  She flew in on Thursday afternoon and left on Sunday.  For some reason the airline decided to send her luggage onto California so she was without everything until Friday night.  Lucky for her she fit into Casey's shirts so she just borrowed some of his stuff.

We accomplished quite a bit within the few days she was here.  We picked out fabric for the babies room which wasn't as easy as we thought it would be.  Everything we picked out seemed to be either boy or girl and we definitely didn't want that.  So we finally settled on chocolate brown, lime green, and cream which will go with either accents after the baby is born.  We started to make curtains, crib skirt, and a changing table pad but didn't quite finish so now I'm trying to get them done within the next week.  We went through all the baby gifts and washed everything that could possibly be washed.  Lastly, we organized the room so that I know where to put things as we get them.  Of coarse we did other things like Zumba class, looking at houses, eating out, and relaxing.  I wish she could have stayed longer but I know she'll be back in a month when the Tamale is born.

My mom was such a trooper.  She stayed up sewing until 1am on Saturday night.  Bless her heart!
