I am now 37 weeks, so here is my 36 week update.
Life
Last year for Halloween, we knew that we(as in I) wanted to dress Reese as an Ewok. I already had part of the costume, and so that made me decide to do a whole family Star Wars Theme for our Costumes. I decided this before even knowing that there was another movie coming out. Below are links to the tutorials I followed to make our costumes, and some pictures of the process.
Life changes so often with a baby/toddler as they age. Here is another Day in the Life post of what our schedule looks like with a 15 month old kid.
6:20am – Wake up, Reese slept in. Bring her into our room as we all cuddle. Try to get grant to wake up.
6:40am – Change Reese’s diaper and offer her milk in sippy cup.
6:50am – Grant showers while I make breakfast and Grant’s lunch since I made Reese’s the night before. Start washing a load of diapers.
7:15am – Grant is ready for work, and we say good bye outside, and then take out the recycling from the garage.
7:20am – Reese and I sit down to eat breakfast.
7:35am – Reese is done eating and starts playing while I finish up. She didn’t get very dirty today so no morning bath before school.
7:45am – Change Reese’s diaper, and I get ready for the day while she plays with my make up bag.
8:00am – Get Reese dressed and ready for school, pack the car with her stuff, and head out to run errands before she needs to be dropped off.
8:45am – Drop Reese off at school.
9:00am – Drive home, check work emails, hang diapers to dry on the line outside, unload groceries from car, enjoy decaf coffee. Do more work. Wash laundry, prepare dinner and dessert.

6:30pm – Put Reese down to sleep. I start cleaning up here and there in the house, and then layout Reese’s outfit for school, pack her backpack, and pack her lunch for tomorrow.
7:15pm – Reese is asleep. I work on some blog posts, and other projects that I haven’t gotten to during the day like putting the next babies clothes away in the cabinet by size.
9:45pm – Start getting ready for bed, and then reading in bed.
