This past week has been jam-packed but luckily I’ve retained my increased energy level and have loved every minute of it. Last Friday night we were able to help celebrate Cory’s cousin’s little girl’s 1st birthday by going to her birthday party. She is such a cutie & growing up so fast – she is also getting a new baby brother early this fall, which we are super excited about as well! Saturday was my baby shower put on by Cory’s mom, for his side of the family & family friends. We had a great turnout & it was so nice to see everyone. There were a total of 4 pregnant women there, including me, one of Cory’s cousin and two of his cousin’s wives – all due between May & September of this year – crazy, huh??!! We received an abundance of wonderful gifts from everyone which has now filled up our “extra” room with gifts & gift bags that need to be organized this weekend (which I’m actually looking forward to because I love that kind of stuff – especially since it’s for my babies).
On Sunday, my sweet, sweet husband gave me a certificate for a massage as a mommy-to-be Mother’s Day present. He said I can use it before the babies are here or as a relaxing treat after the babies arrive – I might wait until after they are here to redeem it. We celebrated Mother’s Day for our mothers by visiting Cory’s mom in the morning and having lunch at my parent’s house at noon.
This week has been busy with Cory & I both having meetings on Monday night and me meeting with two close friends for dinner last night – sometimes I have to remember to slow myself down before I over-do it for what my new pregnancy body can handle.
