Best moment this week: My preschool parents/coworkers/friends threw me a surprise baby shower! It was a TOTAL surprise! Actually, that morning my babysitter had texted me half an hour before I was supposed to be at work saying her daughter woke up sick and needed to go to the doctor (she knew about the shower because she was going to come and bring Trice - so she was stressing, too). After texting a few back-up people and not getting any responses, I called my boss and told her I'd just have to stay home with him today. She, of course, panicked and told me just to bring him to work with me .. I thought that was kind of odd, but I was excited! He was, too! Then as we headed out the door, one of the ladies texted me back saying she could watch him. Baby got some really awesome gifts .. and you can't ever go wrong with diapers, right?! Also, the weather was beautiful .. AND I got some really exciting news from a friend!
Worst moment this week: None I can think of!
Miss anything: Having a lap for Trice to sit on, being able to run around with him without running out of breath
Trice's Thoughts this Week: This week Trice decided baby is a boy. I heard him talking to his pretend friend in the basement and he said, "My mommy has a baby in her belly. It's probably a boy." He also told me that baby picks it's nose in my belly. He has heard me say, "I'm out of breath" too many times so now he is always saying, "I runned out of breath, mommy!"
