Early Birthday Weekend

Brian, Grace, and I headed to Houston to spend the weekend with Cherlyn and Greg. We had a great time! We celebrated my birthday a weekend early since it would be a nice long one with Labor Day. Cherlyn and Greg got me all kinds of wonderful maternity clothes as my birthday present (and some yummy candy). I love my clothes!!! And I finally have a bra that fits!!!!! You have no idea how good that feels. I had quite the "growth spurt." lol The clothes are too cute and I will be dressed to impress no matter what stage of pregnancy I'm in. :) We also had dinner at a restaurant called The Wall. Brooke joined us for shopping and dinner (Greg and Brian went to shoot their hand guns), and the Montforts joined us as well! A good time was had be all...although they could stand to turn the music down a little.

On Sunday evening the townhome community had a little Hurricane Gustav pool party. Luckily the hurricane is not headed our way. But, it's been our second close call this summer! Fingers crossed that we stay lucky. So, anyway...Brian and I bought some new swim suits. It was hard to find one that fit...especially after swimsuit season is really over. But, I found a decent two piece and some sporty shorts. I am finally starting to have a little pregnant belly. Mostly it just feels fatty now, but at least I have a better chance of people thinking of pregnant now rather than just putting on weight. Cute, picture here...but you can't really tell anything at this angle. But, you can in the second picture. The extra-large shorts make my butt look huge, but you have to get what you can to fit over the belly! :) We just finished up 11 weeks, and all is well. Next dr. appt. is in 2 weeks. :)
