Week in Review

Tuesday-Friday seems to be a blur...playgroup was Tuesday, then work, work, work...blah blah blah.  Friday was a nice almost end to my work week though.  Rollie headed to the driving range with Amar and Kai who are two of my friends husbands, while us ladies, Micaela, Rosey, and Dawn had a nice little happy hour with the babies at Dawn's house.  I'm really glad that Rollie is becoming friends with some o the 'Dad's' it sounds like they even talked about 1st birthdays and nighttime routines...adorable! Saturday while I slaved away at work Rollie and Lily celebrated Micaela's 30th birthday at Lagunitas...jealous!

Yesterday we (Lily and I) slept in until 9am!!!  Crazy and clearly needed.  We then did some yardwork for a few hours before my cousin and his friend arrived for their overnight visit to tour Sonoma State.  We treated the boys to lunch at Russian River then headed back to our house to relax for a bit before heading over to our friends house for a bbq.  Our good friends Tom and JC just bought a house in Petaluma.  Yeah closer to us!  They also just got engaged and it was Jean Claire's birthday...lots to celebrate.  Amber, Josh, and Meghan were there too.  We're so grateful that we've made such incredible friends in such a short time here.  We've stuck to our monthly dinner club since January now and its such a great time.

Hopefully I'll get to Lily's 8 month post tomorrow.

    If Connor attends Sonoma State, Sara and I are going to be fighting over the spare bedroom a lot! I love the pictures - and the baby shorts crack me up. Did we really worry that she wasn't gaining enough weight?

    Congrats to Tom and JC - I see lots of pictures in Lily's future. You are so lucky to have such great groups of friends.

In the thick of it

Hopefully monthly blogging won't become a habit.  Life has just been crazy.  April was a big blur. We host a bi annual pick up party at work and for the months of April and October I'm pretty much a working like mad or exhausted from working like mad.  Then it took a week to feel normal again! I'm also working split days at the moment (off on Sunday/Tuesday) and its really not fun.  I can't truly enjoy a weekend and its really hard to decompose on Sundays knowing that I have to work the next day.  Hopefully I only 2 more months of it until Piper can start at Lily's preschool/daycare. Rollie was a rock-star Dad as always, taking care of not only the girls but me too.  I know there were days that I was grumpy and not myself.  They did come to visit me one day during the craziness and that helped! Lily is wonderful 90% of the time and a threenager the other 10%.  It's absolutely amazing what a 3.5 year old absorbs and their tiny little imaginatio...

21 Weeks

21 weeks Cooking time: 21 weeks, 1 day Weight gain: +4...I'm thinking from here on out it will probably be 1 pound a week since it was slow to come on in the beggining.  I think this is the ONLY time in my life that I've been called small by several people that know how far along I am.  I've struggled with weight since college, so maybe this is god's kind way of saying...you won't be one of those people who put on 50-60 pounds during pregnancy. Maternity clothes: oh yeah...I LOVE my grey maxi skirt from Target, I think I'll go grab the black one tonight :) Food cravings: red meat still...had a nice burger for lunch today and chocolate...I indulged in a bit too much Easter candy Food dislikes: frozen peas are the only thing I've found so far Missing: Sleeping through the night and beer...I've really been craving a nice cold beer latley and the non-alcholic stuff is crap so its not even worth the calories. What we've been up to: On Saturday ...

My latest read...

I have lots to blog about, Chicago, Michigan, our recent weekend in San Fran...but this comes first.  Last week I was doing my usual 'before bedtime Facebook scan', and I came across a post from a High School friend.  Maggie had posted an article about Natalie Taylors new memoir, 'Signs of Life'.  I knew it was going to be released  this Winter/Spring but it had slipped my mind.  I immediately went onto Amazon and ordered it.  I got the book Thursday and I'll be done tonight (I have 2 more chapters to go).  I'm not a fast reader.  Rollie can back me up on this one.  I got about 6 books for Christmas and I've only finished one so far, and I'm in the middle of two others.  Rollie would have had all of them finished and probably would have bought a few more by now. But back to the point.  A little background on Natalie...Natalie was married to Josh Taylor, one of my closest friends brother and someone that...
