Ok, ok, ok

Ok, so I realize it has been a VERY long time since I posted. Since you last heard from me, I have:
-had a birthday
-had a baby shower
-put hardwood floors in my house (ok, I didn't do this, but I did lots of vacuuming and painting along the way).
-agreed on a name for baby (I think)

First, the birthday. It was nice, but nothing too exciting. I suppose that is how it goes as you get older. Sheldon was out of town, so I spent the evening with my mom and then went to lunch the next day at a yummy mexican restaurant.

Second, the baby shower. It was very, very fun and very, very nice. I have lots and lots of thoughtful and generous people in my life that make me feel very special. I am very grateful for all of them. I received a number of very helpful tidbits of advice from each of them. There were a few kids there and their advice was very funny- including "don't buy your child clothes he doesn't like and don't make him do too many chores."

I must have opened a thousand gifts. All of which are going to be so great and helpful when the little baby arrives. I am pretty sure the cutest thing I opened was a little tiny newborn onesie that is blue tie-dye. SOOOO CUTE! And some bling, bling pacifiers.

While I was busy eating cake and opening presents, Sheldon, his brother and dad were hard at work putting in the aforementioned wood floors. They look great and hopefully that will be our last project in this house- everything else has been done- I think.

Lastly, about the name. I think we have agreed on Blake. Not because of American Idol, we just like the name. don't worry.
