Life is Good (24 Weeks)

No other way to put it – life is good.  Baby Bisek is kicking and moving around and Zach is able to feel the baby moving every night.  Dr. appointments continue to go well – I am just told I need to work on a birth plan.  The last appointment I told our doctor that my plan was to just ‘go with the flow’.  She recommended that I come up with something a little more concrete….so now I have begun looking at signing us up for birthing classes.

Three weeks and counting until our move-in date.  The house now has cabinets installed and tile in the bathrooms.  It is all coming together and is finally beginning to feel like a reality.  We continue to annoy the contractor every week with our endless emails and nitpicky requests (what do you expect from an architect and his Type A personality wife?!).

We had a great time with friends at the annual St. Patty’s Day parade in downtown Denver (over 250,000 people in attendance).  Silly me, I thought we were going to just watch the parade but our friends had other plans….a bit of a bar crawl.  I didn’t bring my ID, since obviously I don’t need it anymore which only caused a problem at the last bar.  After motioning to my pregnant belly several times and telling the bouncer I was pregnant and obviously could not drink, he still would not let me in without an ID.  (seriously?!)  So, we played the old college trick – Zach got his hand stamped as he came out and quick came and pushed his wet stamp onto my hand.  Yes, I “snuck” into a bar while 6 months pregnant to drink water.

And have to end the blog with my latest sewing creation….a cowl neck jersey sweatshirt!

Life is good.  Hope all is well in your world.  Stay tuned for the “Ode to Big Mary’s” (Big Mary's is the name of our current house) blog update – coming soon!
