Mother's Day #2

Sunday was my second Mother's Day! Dan watched Bethany after she woke up so I could stay in bed awhile longer and then they made me breakfast and gave me a card and a gift certificate for some house cleanings. I'm really excited to use that at our new place prior to the new baby coming! Dan's parents joined us at church, for lunch and to watch some NBA playoffs. Then we went to my sisters for dinner that the guys prepared and cleaned up for us all on their own! I had been feeling dizzy this past week and my Dr said I had low blood pressure and needed to try and rest a little more. Just in time for mother's day weekend so I could really relax and let Dan and the guys pamper us. Thankfully I'm starting to feel better so I hope the dizzy spells are over!

Charlie and Bethany had fun together as always. We actually saw them three days in a row because we had house showings on Friday and Saturday and needed to be out of the house. Bethany gets so excited when I ask if she wants to go see Charlie and say "YeaH!" She nods and starting running towards the door to get in the car.

Saturday night we got together at Jeremy and Allisons to celebrate 2 birthdays, 2 new houses, 1 engagement, 1 new baby, finding out the gender of our baby, and Cinco de Mayo for good measure so we had tacos. I think we need to get together more often! Bethany has a fear of dogs right now because of her face to face experience with Bella awhile ago, but we're trying to get her over it. Allisons dog Bear was an older lab and really laid back. Bethany was brave enough to pet him and even walk near him without flipping out which is a big step! Bella is a nice dog so this summer at the lake we'll keep trying to get her used to her... she is just so excited to see Bethany I think and sometimes the extra licks face to face is scary for an 18 mo old!

In other news we've had 4 friends have babies in the last couple weeks with one more left any day now. A few more this summer before we're due in September. It is a baby boom! I love having an excuse to bring over meals so I can snuggle with a newborn, I can't believe Bethany was that small such a short time ago! We have her 18 mo apt tomorrow so I'll update soon with her new stats.

Well, we are experiencing severe weather here in MN tonight. Hail, tornados, it was 88 degrees tonight with like 100% humidity so prime weather for a storm. Since all the tv stations are talking about the storm I decided to get caught up on blogging!
