MVP Husband

I’ve got the best husband!  When I came home from work Friday, Nick was in the kitchen making my favorite kind of box cake - white cake with white icing.  He grinned and said we needed to "celebrate the baby."  What that really meant in Nick language was "I've found a justified reason to indulge my sweet tooth."  It was really good, I must admit.  I know it looks incredibly simple and basic, but it was just so nice to have something that I actually wanted to eat.  Eating has been a tough chore lately.  

I felt so rough one day this week that I came home for lunch and stayed home the rest of the day.  Slept all afternoon.  Nick came home from work tippy-toeing in like a ghost so he wouldn’t wake me up.  Went out in our small garage and worked for well over an hour straightening and sorting things in an effort to make room for baby.  Then he came tippy-toeing in again and insisted that I think really hard about anything that sounded good for dinner cause he wanted to go out and get it.  Veggie pizza was the winner.  While he was out he got groceries.  I LOVE MY HUSBAND.  He’s the best - and hasn’t complained at all that I’ve really not been much fun lately.

This afternoon he woke me up from my nap moving furniture.  We've launched into the chore of converting our 2 spare rooms (currently one guest bedroom and one study) into one guest room/study and one nursery.  Big project!!!  Lots of cleaning and sorting and creativity involved.  I can only go for a couple of hours at a time before I get nauseous and exhausted, though, so Nick has been the main workhorse thus far.  This afternoon he just decided to light into it without me.  Here he is hanging one of our favorite scriptures above the guest bed.  What a guy!
