This weekend was pretty busy! I got a boost of energy to do stuff on Saturday so we got up and took Stoli over to Pat's parents, and then went to the outlet mall. Pat had been talking about going to the St. Arnold's brewery here in Houston with his friends on Saturday afternoon, and he wanted me to go, but one..it's so not fun to go hang out with everyone else getting drunk while you are the only sober one, and two... it is so backwards for a 9 month pregnant person to be seen as a brewery. Is it just me that thinks that???

Ok so we went to the outlets and were there for awhile. Then we came home, and we were talking about taking a nap but as soon as we got here I wasn't tired again so I decided to finally wash all of the baby clothes we had received and put away all of the stuff that's been sitting in our dining room since the baby showers. Then by the time I actually got tired enough to lay down for a nap it was time to get ready to go to Sarah and Eddy's baby shower. We had to leave an hour early because it was way down by Galveston.

I was planning on wearing a dress, which meant I would have to wear open shoes. I realized I really need a pedicure again! Where are you Steph????? Well...I had to attempt it myself, and I was pretty much sweating by the time I was finished from having to find any position possible to first cut my toenails and then repaint them! I wouldn't have repainted them but when I was cutting them the paint started chipping off so I had like 2 toenails on each foot painted and the other 3 weren't...so I HAD to paint them. Let's just say some prenatal yoga would have really paid off.... Good thing I can't really see my feet at this point anyways... in my mind they look pretty good.. but who knows right?? Nobody tell me any different if they notice I have nail polish anywhere on my foot but on my toenails!! ;) Ugh...and then after all that.... I realized it was too cold to wear a dress!! So I ended up wearing boots anyways...

So we went to the baby shower.. it was pretty fun. It was mostly just friends hanging out. They did something cute where they had a bunch of plain white onesies set out with markers and people could make their own onesie for the baby. Our friend Dave was in the creative zone and making all these random onesies. I made one with a monkey on it for them since their theme is monkeys.

The whole night our friend CB had been trying to feel my stomach to see if he could feel the baby kick. He started kicking while we were sitting there so I told CB where to put his hand (of course, by my rib since that is where is kicks the crap out of me!) He was so excited to feel it. Collin has been kicking me soooo hard lately!! It is really starting to hurt!! I think he must be using 2 of my ribs as practice goal posts!!

Well that was all for Saturday... I'll fill you all in on Sunday tomorrow... It's late already, and I need to get to bed!! 4 weeks left!!!
