wilmington weekend

alrighty i am way behind on all kinds of blog updates :) i'll plug through them tonight!

saturday we drove down to wilmington to see our friends krissy, jeff, brendan, and mrs. o. the drive down was pretty smooth - traffic heading south from richmond is so much more bearable than traffic heading north!!! plus we got to use our new tom tom for the first time. all we had to do was type in the address and off we were. jeremy even got his bojangle's fix :)

mrs. o threw and barbecue / baby shower for krissy and jeff on saturday afternoon. krissy and i got to compare bellies again. it's amazing how different babies grow. krissy is due 2 days before me, but she's carrying her baby much higher so her belly appears much bigger. she's so cute! the shower reminded us of just how much stuff babies require. one of the guests there brought her 2-week old little girl who was wearing her 5th onesie of the day. yikes! i see a lot of laundry in our future! :) mrs. o is just too generous. she got some awesome presents for us. jeremy received a baby medical book and kit (yeah doctor jer!) and a really neat digital baby book. it will allow us to capture this blog and other baby memories for posterity to embarrass roo with years down the road! mrs. o found some cool vintage stuff websites for snoopy stuff and got me a really cool painted mirror of snoopy and woodstock, as well as a red and white snoopy throw blanket which will look awesome draped across a glider chair in the nursery! the icing on the cake (hehehe) was the diaper cakes she made for both me and krissy (see picture above!) she used rolled up diapers, bottles, and other little baby things to decorate the cakes. so clever and so useful! thank you so much mrs. o!!! it was such a relaxing weekend away from all the stress of home (probably our last for a LONG time!!) we ate well, played lots of wii, and got to hang out with great friends we don't get to see often! fun fun fun!
