41 Weeks Pregnant!

I never thought I would make it this far again ... but apparently I am a crock pot and not a microwave when it comes to making babies!

I made this last week in a hopes that I would not have the chance to add a 41 week picture ...

But now I guess I need to add this one {from this morning} too!

Things are good ... my sleep is not great, but really it's not horrible either! Adam and Bennett and I are keeping busy. Bennett found a gift our friends brought for the baby and while we were all out in the living room talking and eating and celebrating the first night of Hanukkah together, he was in our room having a great time too! ha ha! Silly boy!

And then there is Adam ... it's sooooo wonderful to have him home for these last few days before the baby comes! We are getting projects done and just enjoying each other's company before the sleep depravation and newborn craziness sets in! I love this man! He makes me laugh!
{He's never home when I take my "week pictures" I guess he has felt left out all these past 41 weeks ... good thing he was here for what is hopefully the last "week picture"}

Disneyland!


So my mom's birthday is tomorrow ... yes, it happens to be on Thanksgiving this year, so... if your birthday is on Thanksgiving you are kind of locked into what you do and what you eat and where you go. Thus last thursday {one week early} my mom picked going to Disneyland for her birthday and Bennett and I got to go too!
{gotta love it when Mom pays for you to do something for her birthday!} 
We had such a great time going to "Mickey's house" {as Bennett called it} and celebrating "Grammy"! 
Not so sure about the giant talking Buzz .... but he loved shooting Zurg! 

He was so excited to be driving! 

This was my ride for the day ... yep, I'm that pregnant!
{But really it was great to have. There is no way I would have made it thru a 12 hour day without it!}

He really liked Small World too! I think he was a little overwhelmed at first, but he continued to talk about it for the rest of the day! 

Making friends with the girl who was throwing sweet potato fries to the ducks
He has no idea what is coming ... he hasn't actually seen Pooh yet at this point! 
The Big Meeting! 
Truly the highlight of the whole day! 
He couldn't even look away for a picture! He was just so happy to be with his friend! 
Once he was back in the stroller he was ready to map out his next move .... ToonTown! 
It was about a 45 minute wait to get this picture ... good thing it's pretty cute! 

On our way to the other park for Bug's Life and Disney Junior and Brother Bear, Bennett curled himself up in a ball and just passed out! Seriously, he was down for the count! So the rest of us had a great time sitting and eating soft pretzels with cheese sauce and mochas and cookie ice cream sandwiches ... it was a great nap time!


Once we finally found a place to watch the parade we had some time to kill ... so what better time killer is there than Popcorn?!

Bennett said "Mom, two Mickies!" ha ha! Opps, I guess we never really talk about Minnie that often! 

Believe it or not, the Dumbo line was still ridiculously long at 7pm so this was Bennett's entire Dumbo experience ...
{I mean, let's be honest, it's not like he has even seen the movie ... he just thought it was cool that there was an elephant for him to sit on!}

Last ride of the day and he was so happy to go on the "Casey Train"!
He specifically picked out the Monkey car ... which was not easy to get into! 
 And to finish it all off we caught the fireworks as we were heading to the parking garage ...


This was such a fun day! 
Thanks Mom for including Bennett and I in your birthday fun! 
Happy Birthday tomorrow!

Celebrating Baby #2

Last weekend I had a baby shower to celebrate the life of this little one that is coming so soon!
It was so beautiful and so perfect ... it really looked like a magazine!
I loved every second of it!
{I'm trying to consolidate the massive amount of pictures I ended up with... hopefully it works for you}

The decor was fabulous! I loved the bird cages!

I have ridiculously good looking friends! 

So much food that all tasted sooooo good!
{did you see how cute those bird cookies were?!}

Gifts, Gifts, Gifts!
{Check out the "Starry Night" in the bottom left corner - Unbelievable!}

There's nothing better than spending a rainy afternoon with people you love, eating yummy food and opening presents!

Thank you to all my fabulous party planners who made this day so special and wonderful!
Baby Elwer and I feel very, very loved!
