High School Reunion, Sunriver, and baby update

This last weekend was my 10 year high school reunion. I drove over to my parents house on Friday afternoon and came back home Sunday afternoon. Friday night everyone was supposed to meet up at the bars. Since I'm not a drinker and I'm pregnant I didn't find that appealing. Mary and I went and got ice cream across the street from the bars instead. We some some interesting characters out late at night in Arcata. We had a good time visiting with old friends and seeing people from the past. I was pretty tired by the end of the night though. In the picture above is one of my great friends, Katie, who I still keep in touch with, myself, and Mary.

Brad and I took Dawson back up to Sunriver. We always have so much fun there. Brad's parents also went. It's nice to spend time with them outside of our daily lives. We went the day after I found out I am having a baby girl so Penny (Brad's mom) and I went to a few baby stores. We found a few things that were adorable. I was a bit disappointed in some of the speciality stores with their baby girl clothing. They just didn't have any cute dresses! We took Dawson to the Sunriver mall and let him have an afternoon of fun. We had lunch, rode in bumper cars, jumped in the bounce houses, played mini golf, got a treat, and got to play in the toy store.


Here I am at 21 weeks pregnant. I feel like I wake up bigger and bigger each day. The baby is moving around a lot which I enjoy. Brad has felt her kick a few times. Mary felt her kick once and Dawson has felt her kick as well. I think it kind of freaked Dawson out because he says he doesn't want to feel it again. We are setting up the nursery (I know already!) We had found a crib and amroire that we loved back when I was only 7 weeks pregnant and last summer my mother in law had bought a red changing table and baby girl bedding that was on clearance at a baby store here. We are loving how the room is coming together. It should be complete in the next week or so and I will post a picture. I never got to set up a nursery for Dawson so this has been exciting.
