But even more important than the Staycation are all the great happening with our friends & families this week... A very happy Welcome to the World to sweet Lola Noelle, and congrats to Missy, Tom & Big Brother Dylan!

| So Gorgeous!! |
We decided a few months back that with the Beanette on the way we should take some time to relax, work on some house projects, and perhaps save some $$ for all of Beanette's necessities (crib, furniture, car seat(s), hair bows, legwarmers, tutus, etc, etc).
It's not over until Tuesday morning (which makes writing this less painful) but here are some major highlights of the week so far:
- 54 holes of golf for Denny
- 36 holes of golf for me including a few pars and even a birdie!
- 28 hours in Ohio visiting my family, Sara, and some friends from our tap-dancing days.
- 22 week pregnancy mark! We hit it Tuesday and can't believe how quickly our little girl will arrive (although my closet is clearly aware when I stare at it everyday and say/whine "Oh no, NOTHING fits me")
- 9 hours of garage cleaning and organizing (finished result now includes shelves for organizing and sense of relief that we won't lose our daughter in there once she starts moving)
- 7 hours of neighbor fun at annual Memorial Day picnic (thanks Kocialskis for another great year!)
- 6 hours at the Buffalo zoo! Denny's 1st visit since moving to Buffalo over 7 years ago.
- 5 miles worth of enjoying tax dollars while strolling along the Lancaster Bike Path
- 4 baskets of tortilla chips accompanied by salsa, guacamole and cheese dip with our friends at La Tolteca, yum!
- 3 great daycare tours and happiness knowing Beanette will have wonderful care while we work. We're not sure if she'll end up being a little DoodleBug, an EduKid or a Briarwood Baby but we did dispel the myth that all daycares give their kids sleeping pills each day to keep them quiet (thanks again Grandma for telling me about that rosy newspaper article, but please end your subscription to the Dire News Daily immediately)
- 2 matching his & hers farmer tans. Hey, it's what happens when an Irish couple spends a day in the sun.
- 1 great husband that has spent 7 days with me tolerating my Staycation To Do lists, pregnancy hormones, and sneak peek of what our life will be like someday far in the future when we grow old and retire by the water.
Monday is my last day of vacation so I figured it would best be spent getting a little pampering, but I'm in no rush for that to get here. Staycation, please feel free to take your time. Put your feet up and enjoy a cold glass of lemonade... that's why you're here after all, right?
