The sun screens are in and life is good!

Yesterday the sun screens were installed on the windows that we desperately needed them on. And the true test will be this weekend while I'm home to just see what a difference they will make. I can't wait. Let's hope that electric bill drops big time!
My next task is yard maintenance...or trim the damn trees, get rid of the dead tree in our yard and clean it up. I happen to get some info in the mail this morning from a yard company, I think I will call just to get an estimate on the big stuff that Luke and I can't handle or get too. I'm surprised neighbors have not complained, our mesquite trees are totally out of control.
For it being a short week, it has been dragging on so slow.
I have lots to do this weekend to get ready for next weekend when my parents get into town, want the house to look spectacular!
On another note, I swear to God if I get another middle of the night charlie horse like I did last Friday night and I did last night I'm going to die! They literally wake me up out of a sleep and paralyze me to the point where I can't even sit up. There are so painful, I mean I have had plenty of leg cramps in my life, but these are on a whole other level...it's crazy. Both times I have been on the verge of tears and thinking when is it going to end? And the next door I can barely walk and I'm sore everywhere else because I was so tensed up.
I so bad want to go get my hair cut because I really enjoy it and it relaxes me, but I'm really trying to just let my hair grow, especially while I'm taking prenatal vitamins. It has grown pretty fast and I don't want it short again, at least not for awhile. I won't be chopping it off like I did for quite some time. I regretted it later when I could barely pull it up in a pony tail. Living out here I have to be able to just pull it up out of my face, especially when I am exercising.
Had another successful workout yesterday, had no Braxton Hicks contractions, so that is good. Burned some good calories and did some holding squats. I hope I can continue this the rest of the month and then just focus on walking lots during October. But I don't know I say this now, but we will see what happens.
Did I already talk about how we decided on a middle name for Nash. I swear I can never remember what I have already blogged about. If I did , then just ignore this...but we decided on Nash Keaton Gossett. I wanted to keep the middle name starting with a "K" traditon going. My dad's middle name is Kent and mine is Kristine, I like Kenton, but after repeatedly saying out loud it started to sound like Kitten. Didn't think that was such a good idea. So I came up with Keaton, oddly enough while I was sitting in front of the TV and a preview for a movie coming out with Michael Keaton in it came on and I said to look, how about Keaton, he liked and we made it final the other night. I have only told one person and will tell my parents when they get here next week. And obviously anyone reading this will know:) But I'm happy with it, very unique and different and it flows well. It's always interesting to see peoples reactions when you tell them a name that you have chosen. Sometimes good, sometimes bad. Oh well :)
