whew! what a weekend!
This was a great weekend! I got a lot accomplished and saw some great friends!
Friday A and I met up with JM and BB and TH for dinner at Kenny's Woodfired Grill for JM's birthday in Dallas. Dinner was awesome and the company was even better! I could eat popovers all day.
On Saturday morning I got up early and drove to Houston for CC's bridal shower. The shower decor was so cute and CC looked great! CC is getting married in three weeks! I'm so excited for her and can't wait for the wedding. I get all giddy when I see her and her fiance. I love seeing friends extremely happy.
After that I went to Parvani Vida to try on my bridesmaid's dress for CC's wedding. I could barely get the darn thing on. I guess the sizes run small, but I ordered a 10 after I found out I was pregnant thinking it would be enough room. Nope. This thing was SKIN TIGHT and I could barely breathe. The seamstress said that all she can do is let out the inner lining all the way and welllll....cross our fingers and hope I don't grow too much over the next 3 weeks. eeeeeeeek! Super cute dress though. I don't know what I'm going to do if it doesn't fit. I'll laugh, A LOT, because that means I'm becoming a real preggo, and then I'll probably cry and then panic. We'll see.
Once the dress scare was over, I was with my mom and dad and they drove me around Westheimer to look at apartments. I have a list of about 20 that I'm whittling down.
I also got to see KH and her hubby last night. We went and saw Vantage Point. Interesting movie. It was like Speed, Memento and Groundhog day smushed together. Suprisingly short, too. I love movies that make you think and leave you a little puzzled. During loud parts of the movie, I kept feeling this slight tugs in my tummy. I don't think the little one liked the loud noises at ALL. I just imagined it in there, trying to sleep and then feeling a loud thud and getting a little mad face and kicking my tummy. Just like it's father does when he doesn't want to wake up. hehehe.
Today I went out and viewed one apartment and a townhome. The first location I went to off Westheimer and Briar Forest, I asked to see their Model F. The manager looked at me and said, "Have you considered a townhome??" I said, "No, I haven't" He then showed me a 1,700 square foot townhome which ws just absolutely perfect AND it's going right now for $1,000.00 A MONTH!!! The only catch, he has two left, and he doesn't know if they'll be around when our June move comes.
I went to the other apartment on Richmond, a newer complex and loved that one too. So, I don't know. A didn't get to come and look with me, but from what I told him he's already sold on the townhome.
I want it!!!!
Now I'm finally back in the big D after a 5 hour drive. It's been a long weekend. I think its bedtime.
Today also marks 18 weeks!!!!

Popsicles or bust!
So, I'm taking donations for Shelby's popsicleholic fund.
Yes, that's right, I'm addicted to popsicles of the cherry and orange variety. I have no idea why. I've eaten an average of 2 popsicles a day for the past week.
I went to the doctor today and I've gained 4 pounds in 2 weeks. My doctor asked what I eat. I told her I try to eat healthy, but I eat popsicles like crazy. She says I need to think about slowing it down.
popsicles....whodathought?
In other news, today I saw the little peanut. The little one was kicking up a storm and moving its hands around. At one point during the ultrasound, it stretched its arms out, opened and closed its little mouth, and proceeded to recline back and put its hands behind its head... seriously... I have a little couch potato in the making...hahah...
It was so cute... It's so active yet I can't feel a thing yet.
I think in two weeks I find out what I'm having. I can't wait!
Ok, Orange popsicle and bed is calling me.... mmm..popsicle...

17 weeks!!
Well it's amazing how much can change in just two weeks time. I am definitely starting to look pregnant. My tummy is starting to pooch out under my clothes!!
Also, A just started at a law firm here in town as an associate and they have offered him a position in their Houston office to help build up the firm down there. So, we're moving to Houston in just 3 short months!
I started writing down all the things I need to do for the baby and then I had to add a whole other list for moving to do's and job to do's. I've got so much to close out before I leave.
A long, long list of things, yargh.
I'm very excited to go back home to my family and close friends, though!!
Today I ate like crazy. I had a bowl of cereal, an Ensure drink and a banana for breakfast. Then for lunch I wanted falafel with cucumber so I went to Central Market and bought everything to make falafel. While in line I got dizzy and my blood sugar got low, so I grabbed an assorted nut mix at the check out and I ate half of it before I got home and made my real lunch.
A and I then got icecream at ColdStone and then met some friends up to watch the Texas/OSU basketball game, where I proceeded to drink two huge glasses of water and ate a whole plate of nachos with fixings.....
Now I'm going to have a cherry popsicle. mmmm....cherry goodness....
