Sunday in the Park


Sunday Chris and I took a great drive to Solvang to try and tame one of my cravings. I love the Butter Ring pastries that they have there and have been craving one for a week, so Chris took me all the way there just for one. I devoured it so fast that I didn't even get a picture.
The weather at home was pretty cold and icky but as soon as we got away from the coast, the sun came out, and it was a beautiful day. We spent the afternoon eating, laying in the park, and listening to live music. It was such a great little road trip for just the two of us. It may have been our last one for a little while :)

Make an appointment baby

I always thought that when I got pregnant I would finally slow down for a little bit. I have always been an extremely busy person between work and school and family and friends. But who isn't, really? I feel like everyone I know is moving a million miles an hour. But because of that, I have had to have a serious talk with the baby lately. It goes a little something like this: "Okay baby. My last day of work is Friday and I doubt you are coming that early so I think we are okay there. But I have a project for my Master's program next Monday so please stop with the heartburn so I can get some sleep and you absolutely can not be born that early. I have to present this project. You can't come on April 24th because Grandma will be out of town, and come to think of it, you really need to wait until after May 3rd, because that is when my last final is. So anytime after May 3rd is okay. Well let me take that back. You can't come late either. Summer school session for my Master's starts May 26, so you need to be here before then, and Auntie Keely's wedding is May 30 and I would like you to be at least a couple of weeks old by then. Okay, so that leaves you from May 4th until May 14th. Anytime between the 4th and the fourteenth is okay. Well come to think of it, I would like to have a little extra time to shed some pounds before the wedding so how about we make the deadline a few days earlier. Anytime between the 4th and the 10th. Yeah, the 4th and the 10th. That should work."

I know he can hear me in there, so we will see what happens :)

Baby Shower #1

A few pictures from our baby shower. It was a wonderful day with some of our favorite people. My students also threw me a great surprise baby shower but I don't have those pictures yet. 5 1/2 more weeks and baby Christopher will be here! We can't wait!
