Fun weekend

I had a really fun weekend in Seattle shopping, eating, and going to my baby shower! We left Spokane early Friday so I could get some shopping in at Uvillage before the shower the next day. Jenny and I walked around and had a really good lunch. There are so many cute baby/kids stores down there, but wow I couldn't believe some of those prices!! I can't bring myself to spend $50 on one baby outfit. I did have a hard time restraining myself from buying the $50 ugg baby boots for Olivia. They were just SO cute! John thinks Uggs are the ugliest things on earth but I think they are adorable! (especially in baby size) I ended up getting 2 books and a diaper bag. Well actually I got 2 diaper bags to choose from and returned one before we came home yesterday. They were both the same brand and style, just different patterns. Here is the one I chose. I really like it!I do already have one diaper bag from the gap I got a long time ago, but I really liked this messenger style. I figured I could always use 2 (or more!) John got an awesome diaper dude (man diaper bag) as a shower gift from my cousin Matt and Sarah. It looks like this:

Sorry the picture is so huge, but you can see it really well! Anyway I'm excited for John to have such a nice bag he won't be embarrassed to carry! Sarah filled it up with everything John will need from diapers, to wipes, to plastic bags to put dirty diapers in!

I will post pictures of the shower later when I get more from people who took some! I had a really fun time. It was on Saturday at Joyce's house. It was decorated really cute with SUPER good cupcakes! I was lucky to get a hummingbird. Thanks Julie! I got a TON of really nice gifts. Too many to go into detail about! I think all I really need to get now is my breast pump, a swing, a car seat base for John's truck and a changing pad for on top of the dresser. I also really want to get a monitor, but the kind I want is kind of expensive so I might wait since she will be sleeping in our room for a while anyway. Luckily I have some gift cards I can use to put towards those different things.

I also had my dr. appointment this morning. It was super quick with no new news. I guess that's good! My blood pressure was fine and I didn't gain any weight in the last 2 weeks. She said she still thinks her liver may be a bit bigger because she is chubby. She also said she isn't chubby because of me since I haven't gained that much weight this pregnancy. Anyway so my next ultrasound is on Tuesday Sept 8th at 2pm. Hopefully she isn't getting too big!
