I had a bit of a fright Friday night. The four dogs were all sleeping in my bed. Around 4:00 they all started barking and wouldn't stop. I figured the barking was due to window being opened. I settled the dogs back down and checked my phone. I have my alarm company's app on my phone and I can see when the alarm is armed and disarmed. I noticed that the alarm had not been disabled and rearmed meaning that my sister was not yet home from the bar. I figured that she decided to spend the night out with friends, which she often does. I headed back to sleep. Around 4:45 they woke up barking again. I was a little annoyed so I went over to shut the bedroom window and noticed a pickup truck sitting right underneath my window in the garage. I quickly set the motion detectors and called my sister to see if it was her. She didn't pick up. Having our home been broken into before, I am always on high alert (I also sleep with a hammer when Jay's out of town!). I quickly called 911 and explained that I needed police. I was giving the operator a play by play when all of a sudden the door to the pickup opened and a shadowy figure got out. I was scared to death. The light from the car came on and illuminated the figure. Turns out it was my sister and one of her guy friends. I apologized to the 911 officer and hung up, my heart was still racing a mile a minute. I met Allie as she was coming up the basement steps and scared the crap out of her (aren't sisters fun). We both had a good laugh over my frightening experience!
Saturday was more babysitting for me and quality time for Jay and his mom. Jay arrived home around 5:30 on Saturday night just in time to give me my egg releasing shot of Ovidrel. I'm getting sooo much better at the shots! Jay also returned with the most delicious pound cake. A lady in Asheboro makes the delightful cakes and has won first place in the state fair several times. Jay's aunt Terri bought it for us and deemed it a baby-creating cake! Ha!
the biggest baby I've ever seen!
Sunday started with a great church service about journeys that you go on without knowing where you are going. Put faith in the Lord and follow without asking why. I know that I am on a journey and I know that my journey will eventually come to an end and I'll be so happy with the result :) I just have to trust in God that his timing is perfect, and mine is not. I'm letting go and jumping into this journey head first. I've been living life to the fullest and enjoying our pre-baby life :)
Speaking of enjoying, Sunday after church we headed to the Wells Fargo Championship for a beautiful day of golf. We had fun and felt like royalty driving up to the special entrance for folks that live in the neighborhood that surrounds the golf course. We walked right in to the 5th hole and enjoyed watching the golfers come through. Later in the day we met up with some friends and had fun drinking and watching golf. Like I said, I'm trying to enjoy this time in our lives!
