quick update

Nothing to report on the Locke front. September has been a busy month and I can't believe October is just around the corner....
Well after all the visitors left and things calmed down...the scrapbook expo was in town and I have now decided to start doing digital scrapbooking. Once I am done scrapbooking Carter's baby shower I will post the album. It is so quick and easy to do. I am loving it so far!
After the expo, I headed off to Omaha, NE for 2 days. Don't worry---not for fun--for work. We meet up every year for a few days to discuss the past year and what we want to change. The travel was very uneventful until we got back. I found out the day after we got back that one of my team mates was diagnosed with the swine flu. My boss was really worried, but luckily I have showed no signs and the doctor says the incubation period is over so I am in the clear.
Than that following Saturday I headed up to Park City to do some shopping. I was looking for a dress to wear to Jeff and Alyssa's wedding and of course looking for stuff for baby Carter. Let's just say I went a little overboard on Carter's clothes....(and I still have another baby shower)
I have one last trip to take tomorrow to Boise for a mediation. Luckily it is just an overnight trip as the 3rd trimester has hit in hard. I have been exhausted the last two days! And I just entered the last trimester...
No belly pics this week...waiting for hubby to upload them to the computer. He has been under the weather lately and I have been trying to stay away from him....Hopefully will have pics up next week...

Cari comes for a visit

My bestest friend Cari came to visit me over Labor Day weekend. Of course Gus was on his best behavior and within 10 minutes of Cari being in my house, had chewed up the corner of her drivers liscense! The rest of the trip was less traumatic! On Friday night we enjoyed a quiet night at the Gateway complete with dinner and ice cream. The next day was my amazing baby shower! Cari and my sister in law Alex put on amazing baby shower! I had both grandma's there, several Aunt's, Carter's great grandma, cousins, and several friends from all my walks of life. I hope everyone had as good of a time as I did. There will be a seperate post later w/ photos.

On Sunday, we enjoyed a beautiful day at the Bee's game and than a BBQ with friends. We than had to play the new WII sports game...

Gus was soooo tired by the end of the week....too many visitors for him

Than on Monday, we had breakfast and than it was time to say goodbye! At least with this goodbye, I knew when she would come again....

The nursery is done!

My mom came to town for a week at the end of August and helped paint Carter's nursery. We had decided that we wanted to paint the room some type of green even before we knew what we were having. Here is the final result---well minus the crib and glider... First the cream.....

Than the green...........

Than the curtain rod and the window valence...

Than the chair rail........

And the belly pic....
