Over the last two weeks I have had a wonderful time! I went to Ky to visit my Dad and went to my future sis-in-law's bridal shower. My brother is getting married August 31st and I am a bridesmaid which should be interesting being 6 months preggo. My dad and I went to his country club's pool and both of us got fried! It was great being in my home State, but I was surprised at how exhausted traveling just 3 hours made me. I ended up coming home a day early because I missed Rob and wanted my own bed. I guess thats what pregnancy does to ya!
I've also lived the life of a stay at home wife/ mom! I have gone to the mall about a half a dozen times or more and eaten out way too much. Here are the places I've eaten at in the last 2 weeks: raising canes, donatos, cheesecake factory, olive garden, BJs, and Abuelos. I'm sure I'm missing a couple too. My friends Brittany and Mary Anne met me to see the movie, The Heat, one of those days. It was pretty funny! Mary Anne and I also went to Comfest which is a festival that Columbus has every year. it attracts a very interesting crowd. There are 6 different stages with bands playing, lots of booths, and lots of food vendors which of course I enjoyed the the most. We were there for 7 hours so I ate a tamale, sweet potato fries, Jenni's ice cream, and pizza. It was all delicious! We also got henna tattoos and met the happy lady who hands out smiles. Lol!
Mary Anne's tattoo is on her foot! It was pretty sweet!
I also found a maternity consignment shop that is awesome. I bought 2 dresses, 2 pairs of shorts, and 3 baby items for $34. Talk about some deals! It made the baby feel more real buying clothes for it. I feel so lucky to have summers paid off! I can't believe next summer I'll have a little baby! I also went to my Dr. to hear the heartbeat (152) and I got blood work done to test for abnormalities and Down's syndrome. I was on the fence about testing for this because I'm going to love the baby no matter what but if something is wrong we can be prepared at least.
Here is a pregnancy update:

Last weekend we had a torrential down pour. It was crazy! Our basement flooded a little bit but thank goodness everything was off the floor so nothing got damaged. Rob sucked most of the water up with the wet/ dry vac and he had me run out and get 2 box fans to dry everything out.
