Recap and a Graduation

We bought the dresser!  And the picture on Craigslist does not even do it justice.  We love it.  The couple was so nice.  Aaron offered them an amount and she was like, "We'll even take $x!"  Which was less than what Aaron offered :)  It's so exciting to have our first piece of furniture.  I think we'll take it easy for a while unless we find another great deal.

We have lots of college graduations this year (well, just 2), but I had my own little graduation on Friday.  Welcome to the 2nd trimester!!!  I am so happy to have made it :) :)  And that means holy cow, I'm 1/3 of the way through this pregnancy already.  Let's break this down in a picture...Yes, I've made it through one piece of that pie!

At times, everything seems to be moving so slowly and it feels like it took forever to get here.  But then I think about it already being a third of the way over and it's just crazy.

In other great news, I shared our special news with my older "sister" tonight.  Kate is my BFF's older sister and since Stephanie and I have been best friends since kindergarten, her family really is my second family which means Kate is like the older sister I never had.  It was so nice getting to finally share with her and hear her excitement.  Kate is pregnant with her third and I know will be a wealth of knowledge for me as I go down this road of motherhood.  She is an amazing mom, and I know I'll be calling her for many tips and tricks :)  She was already a huge help tonight with where to find good maternity pants, sizing, and types.

One more day until my 14 week appointment! :)
