23, 24 and 25 weeks!!!

So I got a little behind and my Mom is texting me telling me I need to update this thing! Sorry Mom! Week 23 I was in Utah!!! I had so much fun at my baby showers! Friday, the 9th, Michelle, her mom and her sisters threw me a shower for all of my close friends! We had YUMMY soup and salad and they made me a really cute diaper cake!!! Thanks SO MUCH to my second family! I LOVED IT! Saturday, the 10th, My mom, Nick's mom and my sister threw me a shower for my family and family friends! I was astounded by the amount of people that came to support Nick and I and our little family!! We feel SO lucky to have SO MANY great family friends and great support from our families! We had a lot of family drive a long way to come and I am SO grateful for everyone that came!! Thanks Mom, Kathy, Morgan, Riley and Kim for putting everything together for me!! It was so nice to see all of my friends and family and baby got lots of goodies!!  It was a quick trip, but I'm so grateful that I got to go and I'm SO GRATEFUL for Kim driving with me! On the way down we spent the night at one of her friends house in Cedar City and then we stayed at my parents for two nights and drove all the way home on Sunday.  I am SO GRATEFUL to her for going with me because without her (and her suburban) I wouldn't have gotten all of baby girl's stuff home! THANKS KIM!!!

25 weeks! HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!! Can't believe its already here! This was my first Thanksgiving away from home and family.  It was really hard but I only shed a few tears.  We are so lucky to have the friends here in Blythe that we do! We went over to Kim and Jon's and had a SUPER yummy, HUGE, meal!! I was in charge of the green bean casserole and I helped with the rolls and biscuits.... kinda. Kim is trying to teach me to make bread.. Its kinda hard! Some other friends came over and we had a really good time!! I'm SO glad we have them because without them I would have been really miserable.  K-Mart was having their black friday sale Thanksgiving night, which I think is RIDICULOUS, but for the first time I went to a black friday sale! I only spent $20 but holy moly.... People are CRAZY! Kim had her list of things she wanted and it was fun to go along for the ride!!
