Vacation!

Yay! I'm done being a 2L! Greg and I are spending our week off relaxing in Willow Valley! We decided to go for comfort and skip the 8+ hour drive to Niagra. Instead we're relaxing by the pool, eating at the smorgasbord, and shopping at the outlets. We got a great deal on the room too since it's off-season and mid-week. This weekend my sister and her husband are going to Illinois to visit our friend Crystal, so Greg and I will stay at her apartment in Ocean Grove for Memorial Day weekend.

Monday we had our doctor's appointment and had a quick ultrasound. I was a little bit disappointed because I had been looking forward to the ultrasound for so long. I was sort of using the ultrasound as a carrot to get through my finals. The last one that we got at Greg's Dad's house was so good and clear, you could see everything. This one was very fuzzy and we still couldn't tell the gender. Also it was very short and the screen was sort of turned away from me. It was frustrating that it was so short, just because I was looking forward to it so much.

Despite the fact that we coudn't see the gender, I did buy a few baby things today, including some boy clothes. I kept the receipts, I figure if the next ultrasound shows us a little girl, we can always exchange the stuff at the Jersey Gardens outlet :)

Aside from how ecstatic I am over the vacation and shopping for adorable tiny baby clothes, I'm also super excited because I just heard some other great news. One of my best friends from college who was the best man at my wedding, and another really close friend who was a bridesmaid in my wedding have been spending a lot of time together. Saturday night at my birthday party they both ended up staying late to catch up. They left together and the next day they called us to say they are now dating! These are two of my favorite people in the world, and now they are together. I am so happy!
