The week ahead...

Well, I'm trying not to plan too much... Liam was born three weeks early, so baby E can arrive at pretty much any time... or he can hold out until his due date... either way, plans are somewhat difficult to make - but - I am feverishly putting the finishing touches on several things here at home and for the blog...

So far, my week looks like this...

My in-laws are arriving from Canada today so we'll have extra help around the house... and someone to watch the kids while I'm in the hospital... the only downside is that I've been enjoying sleeping in the guest room for the past month and it's been great to have my own queen sized bed... and a private bath so I don't disturb the rest of the fam on my many, many trips... but, Wayne is right - the upsides are huge!   As for today on the blog, I have a book review to go up later this afternoon and I encourage you to check out all of my giveaways!

Tomorrow, the Brilliant Lenses giveaway ends and the very last bonus entry for the $750 Fall Follower Giveaway will be announced!  I will also have a new Sunday Family Story to go up... and of course, tomorrow evening I will be putting up my MMMmonday post with the recipe linky!  On the home front, there is a MOMs Club family party to attend if we want... it should be a blast...

Monday, the Fall Follower Giveaway ends, I have my next doctor's appointment and I have a quick volunteer job to do at Robyn's school... there's also a meeting of my MOMs book club, but that's in the evening, and I'm not sure I can stay awake... but I'm going to give it a shot...

Tuesday, I will be posting sporatically... just PINT and the line up announcement for the Baby/Pregnancy Celebration... I'll be busily working behind the scenes to get all of my reviews and giveaways in.. although I've already started...

Wednesday, the GIVEAWAYS begin in earnest, and while many are directly pregnancy/baby/new mom related, there are several that will appeal to everyone - including a CSN Gift Certificate that can be used at any one of their 200+ online stores, a temporal artery thermometer that I love for the whole family, and even a few gifts for older siblings!  From Wednesday to the following Thursday, there will be AT LEAST TWO GIVEAWAYS PER DAY, so if you don't want to miss anything, I highly recommend that you subscribe by email, so you don't miss a thing!!!

In the midst of all of the Baby/Pregnancy/New mom celebrating, I will also be hosting a guest blog from an author I love, and posting some other great things, so don't despair... it's going to be bigger and better than ever!

Of course, I could just go into labor and leave all of this in Hubby's capable hands, but I figure he's got enough on his plate, so I'm hoping that E will let me get everything locked and loaded before we head to the hospital....

How are you spending your weekend and week?

I'm also spending the weekend hopping around the blogosphere, since at 8.5 mos pregnant it's counter-indicated to be hopping around the house:
