the busiest week of my pregnancy - part 2

This week continues.....!

Saturday was the busiest day I've had.  I was going non stop from 8am - 11 pm.  I'm gonna need to rest up this week :)

At the beginning of the morning, I had lunch with Kim and Megan at Crescent Moon Coffee Bar.  We try to meet for breakfast there twice a month for their quesadilla bar and omelette bar.  It was supposed to be the weekend for the quesadilla bar but the chef had gotten the date wrong so we didn't get any quesadillas :( I was pretty bummed but I had a great muffin instead and it was still yummy.  Plus the company was great!

After that, it was time for Darcy 1st Birthday Party! Most of the whole family was there and it was a very cute 1st birthday.  Carlee did a great job with the decorations! It was fun to watch Darcy open gifts and interact with everyone.  She's such a sweet little girl!





 
 

Now moving onto the afternoon! I was able to get last minute tickets to see Flashdance at the Hobby Center for me and my mom for Saturday at 2pm.  That was one of her favorite movies when she was in high school so I knew she'd love it! We always love going to the Hobby Center downtown because we get free valet parking! Lexus is the big sponser of the Hobby Center so if you own one, you don't have to pay for valet....score! I definitely wasn't going to be parking and walking a long ways ;)  The show was fun and we had pretty good seats at the top right in the center. 


I got home from the show around 5:30. I changed clothes and Jeromy and I immediately left to go hang out with his parents for an early Father's Day.  We went out to Katy Mills Mall, ate Fuddruckers, and walked around the mall.  Vicki and I hit up a lot of baby clothing stores and got some cute stuff for Jonathan!! I don't know if he'll be here for July 4th but I've certainly got to be prepared for it! I got these cute items for him just in cases!



We got home from the mall around 10 pm and I was wiped out!! But I still stayed up to do some laundry for Jeromy because he is traveling this week.  My sleep has changed this week and its getting much harder to get comfy at night so no point in going right to bed.

WHEW! Well there we are....Saturday to Saturday! What a busy week and now this week I think I will tone it down a bit :)  I don't know if anyone will care to read this but I certainly want to remember this time!

Birthday month!

November is always a busy month in the Moore house. We celebrate both of our birthday's this month. I love having the same birthday month. My birthday is first on the 7th. Jeromy gave me very thoughtful gifts this year! First I got the biggest and most beautiful bouquet of flowers I've ever received!


Jeromy had to travel for work on my actual birthday so a couple of days before we got all dressed up and went to dinner at Perry's (YUM) and it's always nice when its free! Love gift cards! It was such a nice dinner.  There were rose petals on the table when we got there and they knew it was my birthday so I got free dessert. It was delightful!
On my actual birthday (Monday) I got up at 4:30 and went to boot camp..that's dedication! Lol I did go home and sleep til about 10 though! I went to lunch with a sweet friend of mine, Rachelle.  She totally made me feel special that day. We went to Salata and she had ballons and gifts and cake pops, I couldn't have asked for a better lunch date! I was so very appreciative of her that day.

Again, Jeromy gave such thoughtful gifts this year...what a sweetheart! Before Thanksgiving we were at the mall and had ventured into the Yankee Candle store. I've never had a Yankee Candle and now I know why people love them so much! We got two candles and turkey decorations for the mantle. So when my birthday rolled around, he gave me two Christmas smelling candles to add to my collection! We had also gone into the Hallmark store that day at the mall and I had seen a beautiful willow tree angel that I loved.  He was listening! He got it for me and here is the start of my collection!
Oh yeah! He also took me to Target (who doesn't love Target?!) and let me pick out a few things that I liked, I'm telling you, he did GOOD this year!

So enough about my birthday, lol, let's switch over to his! Jeromy's birthday is on the 16th.  A few months before his birthday I had seen a Groupon for an hour long Ferrari experience.  I bought it without really reading all the details (I learned my lesson!) and was so excited about him getting to drive a Ferrari, I knew he was going to freak out! So I realized you had to do this on a weekday sometime between 10am-3pm. Uh oh! He works (duh) so I didn't know what I was going to do.  Luckily I had some time to figure it out.  I tried to switch it to a weekend and pay more but the company said no. I know Jeromy's boss pretty well and figured my last resort was to email him and ask for Jeromy to have a half day off from work even though he had no more vacation days this year. Couldn't hurt to ask, right? His boss was so nice and said of course he could have off....whew! So on his actually birthday I gave him a model of what he would be driving and the groupon...he was so excited! I asked my sweet mother in law to come with us because she is fabulous at taking pictures and I certainly wanted the smile on his face documented! So we all went down to the Galleria the next Monday and here we are!
He was just SO excited and nervous at the same time! Don't wreck that $180,000 car baby!! Just check out the huge smile on his face!!!


And he's off! So while he was driving around town in that awesome car, Vicki and I walked over tothe Container Store to look around.  Man that place is awesome and big! It's a bit overwhelming but so many great ideas...anyways! Back the birthday guy....he had an awesome time!



I'm so glad he liked the gift and had a great time....we had wonderful birthdays and are so blessed!
