This past weekend my Mom and my Aunt Brenda came down from Pennsylvania to visit. We had a blast. They laughed so hard and so often that I'm sure at least one of then peed their pants!
We did some shopping, went out to eat, and just hung out. Friday night we went to my friend's house. My Mom brought them home-made wine, 25% alcohol. It's called Deigo Red. It looked pretty scary, I think there was stuff floating around in the bottle. They drank the wine and we played Pictionary Man. It was a little crazy.
On Saturday, Justin's Mom, Robin joined the party. She brought her Boston Terrier and her and Bateman went wild!
We ordered our nursery furniture. We're using the room that was my office for the nursery. There goes my space, but I know it will be worth it.
I love my Mom. She cleaned my grill, attempted to plant my dying plant, and spoiled my dog. She is crazy and I wouldn't change a thing about her. It makes me sad that she is so far away and won't be able to be here to help me with the baby. It's weird to think our baby is not going to grow up with cousins, aunts, and grandma close by. Most of my childhood memories include my extended family. I guess we'll just have to Skype :)
We totally forgot to take pictures while she was in town. She may a have few, but I think they were from the Deigo Red night.
Tomorrow morning we find out, boy or girl!
Today I had a doctor's appointment. It was just a check up, but I did get to hear the heartbeat again! It was around 155 beats per minute.
This is my 6 1/2 weeks ultrasound. We don't have another until about 20 weeks. That's when we'll find out if it's a boy or a girl!
A few weeks ago all I could think about was Troyer Farms Cheese Curls. You can't find them in North Carolina. I'm not really sure how far North you need to go to find them. They are made in Waterford, PA.
My Mom and Paul were kind enough to mail me two bags of this delicious snack!
That has been my only obsessive craving so far. Luckily I've been craving and eating a lot of fruit. Watermelon is the best! Other things I've been feeding Baby: cereal, cheese, yogurt, PB & J sandwiches, green olives, and tons of water. And, of course I get plenty of protein from all the fake meats and tofu we eat.
We will be raising our baby vegetarian. So, no hot dogs mom! Veggie and soy dogs only :)
He already loves the baby. He sleeps cuddled up by my belly every night! Pretty soon there will be no room for him the lay there.
