Wowza, April is flying by! I keep saying that the next 3 months is going to take F.O.R.E.V.E.R. but not at this rate!
I'm officially in the 3rd trimester now! Now I feel like I'm justified in complaining about anything. :lol
A good friend came to Samual's ball game on Thursday and we made tentative beach plans! :faint
We're supposed to go camping from June 14-21 and my friend proposed we do a beach trip on June 22. :lol I rolled with it but said that I'd have to play it by ear. I'll be 37 weeks by then and the thought of having to plan and pack enough food to get us through the week-long camping trip and then to have to do it all again in one day is nutso. If we come back from camp a day early, on June 20th, I'd have Sunday to regroup.
It's my only chance to get to the beach before baby and my friend and I have been doing this for years. Her mom has a beach house so I bring all of my kids and she brings her daughter and it's SO much fun! Any physical signs of stress that I have completely disappear in the days that I spend there with her; it's amazing. Even if we haven't seen each other in a whole year, when we get to the beach, it's like we've been together every second since the last time. Those are the best kinds of friendships. :love
I don't even know if my midwife would okay it...
I need to run out to find a baby shower gift for the shower this afternoon - nothing like leaving it until the last minute, huh? :lol
Is it weird to buy something not on the registry? My friend is a natural living, AP mama and her registries at Target and Babies R Us don't seem like her style. Most of the things have been bought already anyway and just extra washcloths and plastic toys are left - nothing that I think she'd miss.
We have a Gymboree down the road and I was thinking of getting a cute outfit for later on, like 6-12 months since she'll probably get a lot of newborn clothing.
Maybe a wooden toy or something from a local store...
