Conference Sleepover Weekend..

Conference weekend was wonderful. We relaxed, slept in, ate good food, saw family and good friends, what more can I ask for? We went to the Sunday afternoon session of conference, we love every single chance we have to go. Every time we go we wonder where we will be next conference time, and if we will have the chance to be back at the conference center. This time I couldn't sit still knowing that next time we have conference we will be watching it with a little boy hanging around..even though we will be loving watching it at home with him-I'll never get sick of being so close to the speakers, and hearing the choir live. It's one of my very favorite things!

Since before we were married I have had my special spot when I watch TV or a movie with Shawn. Whether it's my parents house, his parents, or our own house, I always have to be on the inside of the couch-about half way under the back couch cushions as tightly squeezed in as possible because everyone who knows me knows I like to be burning hot all the time! Not just warm, but over heating. Every time I get home from work, I grab a blanket and Shawn, and he automatically scoots to the outside and does his job. This weekend I jumped in my spot, comfy and cozy as can be. Something very tragic happened. I'm sad to admit that Shawn wasn't comfortable anymore because my belly has started to invade his space. He tried to nicely tell me that we are going to have to rearrange for the next few months..We tried staggering our heads on opposite ends but it just wasn't fun with his feet by my face! I used to use that trick with Jaimee in the back seat of the Astro van and it worked much better because her feet had painted toenails and were probably a size six. Shawn's feet are a size 12 and his toe nails are not as beautiful as mine of course are.

[this was the result..]

We tried sitting on different couches and it was far too lonely. So we pulled out the patched up old air mattress, I let it mess up my front room the entire weekend, and it was delightful to fall asleep and wake up on at all hours of the day and night. We had great sleepovers in our front room and we wondered why we slept so good. We realized when we were putting it away Sunday night that it's actually bigger then our real bed..which is a full. Poor Shawn was happy to not have his feet hanging off. I loved being lazy..Monday was back to real life. Work, school, and a clean front room. But it was fun, I have to be honest. I would be up for making at least one conference weekend a year a sleepover weekend with the air mattress in the front room from now on..we just might. Even when we are forty. Then we probably REALLY won't fit on the couch anymore and not just because I'm pregnant..but let's not go there :) Hope everyone enjoyed conference! Happy spring, hopefully someday..

[VERY well rested and ready for conference!]
