Girl Bonding

I took the opportunity to pose for a preggers picture today. It's not very often that I'm feeling photogenic these days and I know I need to at least have some pictures while I'm pregnant for memory's sake, so here it is - 27 1/2 weeks! I really ought to reconsider the whole vertical stripes thing. Am I really that big? No, it must be the angle of the camera, right?!?!



After the "photo shoot", I got to spend a wonderful day with my two best girls in the world - my mom and my sister! It was so nice to have a day together where we didn't really have any plans but could just do whatever we wanted - which happened to be shopping and eating! We started the day off by having lunch at Panera and then headed to the mall for some shoe shopping (I needed some brown shoes as my legs are now too fat for my boots to entirely zip up) and of course, a stop at the Baby Gap! Being in that store makes me realize how right we were to not find out the baby's sex because seriously, we would be broke before the baby arrives. Anyways, after a few hours of shopping, we had worked up an appetite (again) and made plans to meet up with my Dad and Dave at Ground Round for dinner (Lindsay's husband was in Davenport for the day and couldn't join us). Well, we got home from the mall and since my dad hadn't been feeling well all day, he decided he wasn't really up for dinner. I called Dave to warn him that he would be forced to endure a dinner with just us girls and he opted to stay home - can't say I really blame him actually. When Mom and Lindsay and I get together, we can be a bit much I think!! While of course we missed the boys at dinner, it was the perfect end to a perfect day. Well, it would have been even better if I could have enjoyed a drink with my dinner but instead, I settled for a brownie sundae when I got home!
