1 week away

we had a great last full weekend. we got some more much needed cleaning around the house done. we know we will be so overwhelmed when we get to bring owen home after the swap so we want the house to be as clean as possible. sometime during last week owen asked if he could stay the night at his nannies house before his surgery. so nick and i thought that it would give us the perfect opportunity to spend time with just livi. saturday night the boys stayed with nicks parents while we took livi on a "date".

we took her to walk and shop around the plaza.
we had dinner at The Melting Pot. it is one of me & nicks favorites. livi wasn't to crazy about the main course but she loved the cheese and chocolate fondue. we had a great time!!!!

then we went miniature golfing at cool crest. the weather was perfect. livi thought it was cool that her mommy and daddy had gone on real dates there before we were married.

sunday morning we had brunch at V's with nick's family. it was definitely a weekend full of yummy food.

today owen and liv didn't go to school because liv and i had dentist appointments and owen had an appointment with his cardiologist. owen goes to karate on mondays, so tonite he went to his last one for a few months. his two helpers in the class are brother and sister and they just adore owen (who doesn't, right?). today they gave him a pumpkin that they decorated and wrote well wishes on, it was so sweet!!!!

so this is it.....one week from today owen will get one of nicks kidneys. all day i have had a big knot in my stomach and i pain my chest. nick and i have been so short with each other but we both know that it is just stress and aren't taking it to heart. i know it is only going to get worse, we just have to make it thru this week. wish me luck
