Circus & Easter Preparations

Saturday we went to the circus! It wasn't a fabulous show...but it certainly kept our attention! They had some "hardware" problems and two people almost fell from a rope tied to the ceiling onto the pavement below! It was SO crazy!! I really wanted to ride on the elephants - but Aurelio insisted I wait until I have a child to bring with me as an excuse. After the circus we went shopping for a nice bed set for our spare bedroom. It took forever; but we finally found just the right one; that wouldn't break our bank. It felt like such an accomplishment...lol. After all that walking and being out and about I was pretty tired and was happy to be heading home. We were able to have a nice evening together watching another DVD on baby development in the womb - a PBS version. It was actually very medically informative; I'm sure we won't remember half the stuff we learned; but it was neat to watch anyway.
I was however able to finish my second baby's blanket while watching the movie! :) My next project will be to crochet a baby's bonnet. I'll start that sometime this week.



We were invited to a chihuahua Easter party; so I went looking for some good fabric to make a dress for the girls. Here is the first one I made today...I have to find a new pattern for Lily because she's gotten too big/fat for the small chihuahua patterns I currently have. It would be nice if I could get really good at them and could start selling them to the other girls in the chi group :)...






Aurelio spent his Sunday doing some coding for a game he's writing. The dogs were happy to cuddle up next to him and lounge the day away. Hopefully he was able to get a lot accomplished! :)

I should note that he also cleaned up the garage and took all our extra boxes up to the attic. He also took the dogs outside to play; they are just LOVING him today :).

We're almost done with our taxes and are keeping our fingers crossed that we can get some money back to help pay our midwife for the birth...it's looking pretty good so far.

As always I'm counting down the days until NH...18 days left! :) I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone! When I get back Rosie is coming to stay with us for a few days - so April is going to be a great month!! :) Can't wait!!
