Ahhhh, that is me taking a breath:) We have been consumed with house selling! So here is an update. My family graciously took us in for a week and a half while our house was first on the market and our realtor had an open house. We had a blast, and it was so wonderful to just hang out with my family and stay away from the cauous! So thank you, thank you, thank you family!!!!!!!
Here are a couple of the fun things that we did:
Sofia watched the Cardinal game with my dad- a couple of weeks ago. They got all dressed up in their cardinal gear, just to cheer them on. Sofia was really sad when they lost. She said that it was "too bad that the cardinals lost....but now they get to go home!"
We celebrated PB birthday while we were there. Sofia insisted on making him a pink, heart birthday cake with an Ariel topper and sprinkles. I am not sure if the cake was more for my dad, or for her:)
We also celebrated Aunt Mary Kay's birthday. It is the same day as my dad's. We got her a Michael Jackson poster, Sofia was SOOOOO excited to give it to her. They both share a love of MJ.
Sofia got a big girl hair cut from Pilar, the same girl who cuts Mommies hair.
I stayed up almost every night finishing my nieces quilt. It was very fun. It only took me a whole year exactly to the day! Parts of it are made from Karen's bridesmaid's dresses:) Noelle and and my mom stayed up helping me and keeping me company. It will be a GREAT memory. My mom and I did this project together, she is a great sewing mentor, thank you mom!
We are now back in MD, and have done laundry, grocery shopping, and almost cleaned the house:) I have had another doctor's appointment and sono. So we are back in the swing of things. We are just desperately trying to stay abreast of the house, and keeping it forever clean while it's on the market.
So a baby update: The mad hatter is NUTS!!!! It moves all the time, and Sofia is just in love with it. She can't wait until it comes out, "to meet her!" Everything is going according to plan, and looks great (at least that is what the doctor assured me of on Tuesday). I am VERY VERY tired of being pregnant, and I too can't wait for this baby to come out and meet me:)

It looks like you all had a great time! It is a blessing to live near family :)
We live in MD too, but the Air Force moved us here and our family is in Illinois. We go home very year to visit. The quilt you made is beautiful! What a special gift :)
Take care!

Hi! I started a new blog to document my weight loss journey. Since I want to be brutally honest, I've kept it anonymous - therefore can't invite my friends to read it. I'm looking for some followers so I have a little support in this. Check out my blog if you'd like! :)
