Happy Fourth of July!

Luke and I have had a fun two days celebrating Independence Day. Yesterday I finished staining the wood floor in the nursery. Then we registered for Baby McGlothin at Babies R Us (Luke actually enjoyeed it more than I thought he would) and pulled a double header at the movies seeing the Hangover and Transformers.

We relaxed this morning, went out and bought a few things for baby (including a gurdle to support my back) and then picked up our glider. Thanks to mom and dad who purchased it and the matching ottoman for us.



We hope you are all enjoying the extended holiday weekend as well!
