First Mother's Day, plus other goodies!

This sunday was so much fun! I got home from work at 8am and saw my sister-in-law's husband working on a gift for her. Honestly, I got a little sad and pouty till I walked into my room! Alan had set up the baby dresser and on top where 4 supper cute baby outfits, a pair of baby penny loafers (which I know are unnecessary, but sooo cute), newborn swaddler with cap & rattle, bouquet of flowers, and a gift card for a pedicure! I stopped pouting and pounced on my dear hubby to give a hug... which would have worked if my hubby wasn't dead asleep and immediately reacted with his JKD defense, tossing me to the side! So I took my nap and woke up to thank him.
We drove up to see my parents for mother's day and spend the night. On the way, I enjoyed eating my chocolate covered strawberries and occasionally shouting "I'm a mom!". It was really nice getting to just hang out with them and I loved giving my mom her present of a babysono pic frame that says "love at first sight" and two baby books, you are my sunshine (my mom's fav song to sing) and spot loves his grandma! Next day was nice and chill-- breakfast with mom, meet up with some friends, register for baby stuff at babies r us and dinner! I had to hold my mom back from buying every grandma related baby item! It was a wonderful weekend (or my version of a weekend)!
Went to see my new ob md today-- love her! Super sweet and didn't comment on my weight (which is a great way to win me over). 2 more weeks until glucose screening and 3rd trimester! Can't believe things are going this fast! But I do believe our lil man is growing because i've been out of breath all day today-- I look pretty pitiful huffing and puffing while putting up laundry!

As far as other goodies go... here's some words of wisdom from an ER nurse!
1. Don't fall asleep with your arm out the window... especially if you are driving!
2. If you are a wound care nurse, be sure to check the rest of the patient and not just were the wound is. You never know what creepy crawly things lurk below!
3. If you've been trying to get a room in the hospital for several days and we keep sending you away because there is nothing medically wrong... go with the suicide route-- we have to give you a room somewhere!
4. Don't threaten the nurse... ever! Our security guards get pretty aggressive when one of their girls are threatened! And trust me, they all come to the join in the action!
5. Just don't even try to fake a seizure. We know. You can fool family and non-medical people, but you can't fool us!

That's all for now! Will try to post some pics later of more baby goodies-- almost done with my first attempt at a quilt!

24 weeks pregnant!
