One more for today...

Last week was a busy week, as you can tell by the 3 posts I am making today that all should have been written last week.

On Wednesday last week, some of my girl friends took me out for a baby celebration dinner, planned by one of my BFFs - Jessica! We went to Bang Bang Mongolian Grill. Me, Jess, Emma and Lexi (Jessica's girls), April and Charlie. It was a blast - I haven't had a girls night in forever, so it was nice to talk about all the things girls talk about and just have a great time.
April and Charlie got me a Moby wrap! If you don't know what it is - check it out - it's sweet!!  http://www.mobywrap.com/ Thanks girls!!!!
My mom and dad came down this weekend since I am not allowed to travel (we were supposed to go up North to visit our families this weekend, and I am sad and sorry to all that we couldn't make it). My mom and I practiced using the Moby - it doesn't quite work on me right now since my belly is so big, but it fit nicely on Mom and we got a good idea of the different ways to wear it :)
Jess and the girls got us some super-cool baby Hawkeye gear!! Included was a baby Hawkeye stocking cap, socks, Sweatpants and a long-sleeve onsie (this is for a boy) and a little Hawkeye cheerleader dress (for a girl) that is the cutest little thing ever!! Since we don't know what we are having, she went overboard and got an outfit for each :) Josh wants to keep the hat even if it's a girl...He's in love with it!! Thanks girlies for all the gear!

So I had a really really fun time...Let's do it again soon after baby is here!

And I will add to this post since I mentioned it already about my parents coming down this weekend. They were here just for a few hours on Sunday, but it was lots of fun! They wanted to see my pregnant belly one more time before it goes away (let's hope it goes away!). I am so lucky to have them as my mom and dad. Even at 27 years old, they still take great care of me in many ways...they brought me homemade jelly and spaghetti sauce (my mom makes the best!) and squash and pie and all sorts of good stuff. And they take care of my emotional side with all of the love and support they give me and Josh. I can't wait for them to be grandma and grandpa to our baby - it's going to be another great set of relationships to watch grow. I hope to be as good of parents to our child as they were to me and my brothers and sister.
