27 August 2012

Hoping there are twins in there since I'm that big

This Friday Dave and I went out to dinner with his coworkers at McCormick and Schmick's which was good yummy fun. Then after getting home around 10:30 we headed to bed since we were leaving the next morning for the Bay Area to see little Maia Fernandez's baby blessing! 
We packed up that morning and grabbed the car seat and the baby go bags just in case we had the baby while out there. It took us an hour to get out of Sacramento and not because there was an accident, road work, or anything like that, just stupid drivers (we've decided California drivers aren't the best... with their lack of signaling and no courtesy at all). Well we finally made it to their apartment and chatted for a little bit and then we headed to Five Guys which I have been missing like crazy lately! It was so good. Then we went over to Sara's parent's house where all of us girls went to Costco to pick up stuff for the lunch after church. At Costco I almost fell into the cart when I was putting a cheesecake into it. Luckily I caught my balance eventually. Then when we were leaving the cart grabber asked who's baby Maia was between Sara and me. Seriously? After saying she was Sara's he was all "oh how fun you'll both have babies so close in age." After Costco we went back to the apartment where we lounged around and enjoyed dinner before going to bed.
That morning we all got ready and then went to church. At church little Maia got blessed which was fun to get to be a part of. It made me even more excited to have this little monster who is still growing inside me. After sacrament we went to Sara's parent's house and had such a great lunch and dessert. Afterwards we had to leave and drove back home. The drive felt like it took forever even though it was only a two and a half hour drive. We were glad to be back home though and Comet was glad to be out of his cage for a little bit before we headed to bed.
It was nice to get out of the apartment this weekend and see friends. We're also glad that our little boy didn't come this weekend so we could have our baby closer to home.
We also made sure to practice getting the car seat in and out of the base and the stroller when we got home from our trip! Something we totally didn't think about until seeing Sara get Maia's car seat in and out all weekend.
