33 weeks





I am sick for the first time since being pregnant and let me tell you it stinks! It started with a cough (that thankfully is now gone but I swear I have a bruised rib on my right side from it) and I now have a wicked cold. BOOOO I am going to rest up this weekend and be better asap. Daddy is being great and taking good care of me.
We had our 32 week check up and baby is still doing great. My belly grew another 1.5 inches in the last 2 weeks. Im waddling like a pro! The checks are pretty uneventful which is a good thing it means both of us are doing well.
I had my second yes second shower last weekend at grandma and grandpa Horwitz's house and it was wonderful! More amazing food, so many friends from all parts of my life and all over the map, and a memorable joyful day all around. I feel so loved.
The day before the shower I had a full beauty day. That will be the last one for a while so I totally spoiled myself with a facial brow fix hair cut and blow out. I can not even tell you how amazing it fells to have a good hair day! I didnt want to ever wash my hair again it looked so great!
Those that know me know i LOVE party games and there were a couple. Guests had to guess the circumference of my belly. OK OK I was 41 inches. Marcia and Jamie 2 of my dear office mates tied at that one.
The activity of the shower was for everyone to design a square of fabric and my lovely Auntie Kassie is going to hand make a quilt as a gift to baby m!! SO COOL!!!
For some reason I can only post 4 pics per blog entry so here is a short overview. Pics from top to bottom: This was one of many delish appetizers. Heart shaped puff pastry stuffed with carmelized onions! YUM. The beautiful caterer Danielle (who is also a recent mommy) did such an amazing job with all the food. No one noticed it was gluten free and vegetarian! (I am allergic to wheat and gluten while pregnant and veggie all the time)
You can check her out at paperpalate.com. Next is the hostess herself, second mom Nancy aka Grandma Horwitz. She made the day so fantastic.
Then we have my mom and I. she is so excited to meet baby m! And last but not least one of my best friends Melissa. She helped Nancy out so much before the shower and I really put her to work during the shower too! She was such a great sport. She is getting married on 1/9/10. That date rings a bell right? Of course it does, that is Baby m's due date! I was supposed to be a bridesmaid in her wedding but sadly had to bow out. We are really excited and happy for her.
