Baby Sunday: 33 weeks AND MATT'S BIRTHDAY!

Yesterday was Matt's 28th Birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY! We kicked off his birthday by having him take a half day off of work on Friday. We went to this Chilean restaurant that Matt really wanted to go to. It was apparently very authentic. We walked in and Matt was totally in his element. He was speaking Spanish like it was his native tongue. I loved it. I've never seen him so comfortable. Then we went and saw My Sister's Keeper. And yes Matt wanted to see it, I didn't make him. But I must warn you, YOU WILL CRY YOUR GUTS OUT! I was sobbing, full on ugly face sobbing. Great story. Then we went to the bookstore and vegged. Then Matt said that since it is his birthday he should be able to go to Panda Express. Gag. I loathe that place, but it was his birthday so I obliged. On Saturday for his real birthday I made him french toast for breakfast and he did some yard work, I made a delicious birthday cake, we went to the pool and came home and watched a movie. We are so exciting. Here are a few pics:

Chilean Restaurant- It wasn't in the nicest part of town and it is missing an "L" after the "E"

Pastel de Choclo- Matt thought it was heaven, me not so much

I ordered a completo. It's essentialy a hotdog the size of your head smothered in tomatoes, avocado and mayo. Yummy

Baby Sunday: 33 weeks

Obsessions/Rampages: I think I've felt some nesting going on. I feel the need to tackle more things on my to do list instead of putting them off. Baby boy is only + or - 7 weeks away from getting here. He is getting big. He likes to kick my right side the most and sticks his little bum up into my rib, or at least I think it's his bum. I was gazing at my wardrobe today and dreaming of when I would be able to wear some of my tops again. Finding something to wear for church is a bit of a challenge especially since it's 500 degrees outside and layers aren't fun to wear. Oh well, what can you do. I love my little boy.

Elations/Worries: Like I said, peanut is growing big and strong. Really happy about that. My hips have been killing me the last couple of days and my joints seem to pop with every movement. So I've decided to go to the pool more so I can get some of the pressure off of my body, at least for a little while.

Aversions/Cravings: I've had a sudden craving for cereal this week. I think the coldness of it just sounds good all the time. The only aversion this week was some of Matt's Chilean food, but really that stuff is an acquired taste for most people.

what a relaxing birthday! That cake looks delish!!! All i can say is, keep dreaming about those old tops of yours....if you plan on breast feeding after, your tummy will fit into the shirts, but the upper half....not so much!! it's been kind of a fun change for me as i am not well endowed in those areas! ha ha!! you need to post weekly profile shots!! can you tell if the baby has "dropped." if you haven't, don't worry...random strangers in the store will let you know if you have!
