Happy 24th James!















Last Friday James turned 24!! Rachel, Lisa, James, and I went to Sushi Ya . . . James' FAVORITE restaurant. It is all you can eat of course. Don't worry no mercury for me, I ate chicken. Lisa is allergic to shellfish and apparently they cooked her food with some... her tongue swelled up and made her talk funny- it was so funny, but we all felt bad for her. Once her tongue would shrink down again she would have another bite. haha... The price paid for good food.

After dinner we went home and had some friends cram into our little place for dessert. I made James' favorite - my mom's cookie dough brownies and ice cream, yum!















I think his best present was his sock monkey calendar from my parents. hahaha. My mom has an amazing memory. Somehow she knew James liked sock monkeys - I didn't even know that! I'm making him take it to his desk at work so he can enjoy it everyday!




















Pregnancy update:

This Thursday marks 31 weeks! It is crazy to think James was born at 29 weeks... That means if I was his mom I would have a baby right now! Crazy.

James and I love to feel his kicks and punches. I didn't realize how uncomfortable pregnancy would be, but I haven't been sick at all so I shouldn't complain! I think he is doing somersaults, flips, barrell rolls, and whatever else he can think of... he is active!

This picture is from last week... on the 30 week mark. Beastly I know!

Megan you are so adorable and I am so jealous that you are so far along. I feel like I will NEVER reach 30 weeks. You sure look cute!

You look great Megan! Your a hot pregnant lady! I can't believe your already 31 weeks! Time sure is flying by. Do you have a birth plan at all? I'm always curious to see how people decide to bring their little ones into the world :)

I ate my leftovers the next day, right before my stomache issues began. I am not a fan of sushi right now.

HAHAHA...I saw a bunch of sock monkeys at Target the other day. Megan, look so cute!!! I can't believe how close it is getting for a little mini James to enter the world!

Okay, so I am retarded and can't type today. "Megan, look so cute!" WOW...what am I, 2! You look way cute though!

Yeah, I'm glad I had a homebirth. It hurt like a mother though! It was really really nice to be at home through the whole process. We did the bradley method for laboring (husband coached childbirth) and the whole idea behind it is to relax through the pain (easier said than done by the way). So being in my own comfy house at least helped me relax a little better. I remember telling myself during labor to NEVER do it at home again and to make sure I get an epidural next time, haha. But now that I'm on the other side of it I'm really glad I had an unmedicated, intervention free birth. But yeah, its such a personal decision as far as what method you choose to use. I'm praying for you and I hope everything goes the way you guys decide is best. Can't wait to see pictures of that little cutie!
