My Pickles & Ice Cream Baby Shower

Last Sunday, my very dear friends, Marissa Castaneda and Berenice Lopez were gracious enough to host a Baby Shower for me! We had such a great time at the best maternity store around; Pickles and Ice Cream! I want to thank everyone for coming and making this Such a Special event. I wasn't able to open gifts at the shower which was a bummer because John and I received THE CUTEST things. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! In case you're wondering...The cake was so delicious (remember, I am a Cakeaholic) and the rocket on the cake symbolizes my dream for my little boy. Auntie Amanda and I figured out that if all goes well, he will be a Proud Member of the Fightin' Texas Aggies Corp of Cadets Class of 2030! Whoop! After that, his daddies plans for him include the Naval Academy which would put him on a great track to becoming an Astronaut( the Astronaut thing is my thing)! Voila, there you go, Go Big or Go Home, right?

Starting a new project....

Since I've been on bedrest, I've gotten really good at making yo-yo's. I'm working on making a stuffed yo-yo elephant for baby. I had a lot of fun picking out these fabrics. I wonder how long it will take me, I have to make a ton! Hopefully, you'll see the finished product soon.

Let us eat Cake!

In celebration of 27 weeks, C and I made a strawberry short cake. Lately, her favorite snack has been "Strawberries and Cream." Today, I thought we'd change it up a bit and bake something. We had so much fun and she said it was Delicious!

Finally getting rid of my cold!!

I have been battling a cold for the last week or so. Thankfully though, I think I'm finally recovering. Last Thursday, misery set in, and I've had to live through this drug free. Since I'm pregnant, my Dr. refused to prescribe an antibiotic. Oh, how I miss my drugs. I'm a terrible sick person. John and C spent Easter with his sister in DC, while I stayed at home with mom and dad. It was nice but I definitely missed them.

Do I get bored?

It's been a while. I've been trying to wrap up things for work, getting ready to paint C's room, etc. Everyone asks me if I get board being on bedrest. My response? No, believe it or not, I always find something to do, there is always something I didn't get done and will have to wait until tomorrow. I have good days and not so good days, on my not so good days I lay in bed all day and watch tv, which then ends up giving me a headache. On a good day, I get up, get ready, watch The View (while having breakfast), watch All My Children, then get to working on my to do list. Today, Kim, my future business partner, came over to help me prep for an upcoming baby shower. Thank you So Much!!!
Today at my appointment my wonderful Dr. asked John and I when we were planning on getting pregnant again after this one. All I could do was glare at him.
