It&#8217;s a pretty nice place, considering its a hospital.  They try hard to make the room comfy despite the linoleum floors and hospital bed.  It was interesting though and I was glad to go.  I&#8217;ve been curious for awhile as to what the place looked like.  It made the whole experience seem much more real and closer!<\/p>\n<p>This past weekend I had my baby shower&#8230; and what a shower!  :)  I had a great time with the friends and family who attended.  Alan&#8217;s mom, his sister, and my friend Julie all worked very hard and pulled together a fabulous party.  I felt so special!  I couldn&#8217;t ask for a better bunch of family and friends&#8230; *sniff* :)  <\/p>\n<p>I also now feel a little more prepared to have this baby.  We have cloths and a car seat (so they will let us take the kid out of the hospital).  We also have a swing, bouncy seat, bath tub, lots of toys and tiny little hats and booties.  Baby zig is gonna be stylin&#8217;.  <\/p>\n<p>We ended the evening with dinner at Friendly&#8217;s and an animated discussion on girls names.  We still haven&#8217;t decided on one.  Maybe if zig is a girl we&#8217;ll look at her and a name will just come to us :)  Hopefully!<\/p>\n<p>This week is busy and getting busier.  I&#8217;m trying to get all of the arrangements in place for a trip to Detroit next week.  Though I&#8217;m sure Mike (the groom) and his lovely bride are worried about a lot more arrangements than I am :)  <\/p>\n<p>I also wanted to give a quick shout out to Stephenie, my co-worker, who not only does an awesome job at FINOWEN, but also gave me tons of maternity cloths!  I&#8217;m now fully outfitted for the last few months :)  I also found a cute dress that will work well for Mike&#8217;s wedding next week.  That was a big relief!  Thanks Steph!<\/p>\n<p>Ok, that&#8217;s all for tonight.  SO much to say, so little time.  Maybe I&#8217;ll devote this weekend to putting together baby furniture (swings, and strollers, and car seats, oh my!) and updating the blog.  That would be fun :)  Probably I&#8217;ll spend it preparing to leave for vacation though :\/  <\/p>\n<p>G&#8217;night all!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is so much going on that I want to write about, and yet so little time :( I&#8217;ll give a quick update tonight and hopefully this weekend I&#8217;ll be able to provide more detail.
