Uncreative weekend catch-up... Friday night my frient Mary and I went to My Big Fat Greek Wedding. It was a great movie and I laughed a lot. On Saturday, Mike and I painted Macy's room. The carpet-layers will come next Saturday for that final touch. It's exciting seeing the transformation. Even more exciting is the anticipation of crib shopping next weekend. That night we babysat the neighbor boys Kyle (8) and Drew (5). We took them to the new 3 in 1 McDonalds where we actually had to wait for a seat, then to Star Wars, Episode II. I loved this movie, too. I'm not exactly up on the Star Wars story line, but I could watch the special effects all day. Cool stuff.

On Sunday, Macy and I were properly coddled at a baby shower given by my aunts and cousins. My very first shower. I have to admit, it's a strange feeling being the center of attention, opening gifts and knowing your reactions are being watched by everyone, but it was so much fun having all my friends and family together in one room. We got a lot of cute little things, pink and purple outfits, toys, etc. The kind of things I probably shouldn't buy myself, but would have fun doing so. It was a nice girls' day. My sisters stopped by the house afterwards to check out the half-finished baby room. We sat around the table and talked babies, christmas, etc. while the three little nieces, Chelsie, Haylee and Emah, tormented Sigmund the Cat in the living room. Poor Siggy. He's not fond of children.

Yesterday (Monday) I had a severe case of the tireds, possible resulting from my Sunday night's poor sleep. It seems I'm having much more difficulty breathing these days, plus I can't seem to find a comfortable sleeping position. I want so badly to lay on my stomach, but can't. My due date is exactly 2 months away. I think the first thing I will do after she's born is sprawl out on my stomach; secondly, I will drink some wine....
