Busy Bee's

Ben and I have had such fun and busy weekends over the past two weekends. Last weekend we had Hillary's birthday dinner at The Original on Friday, Yummy. We had so much fun and got the chance to catch up with some people we had not seen in awhile. We then went to Jackson's safari themed 1st birthday on Saturday morning. Andrea did such a great job and everything was so cute! Later that afternoon we went to Brooks' dump truck themed 2nd birthday. It was so adorable and I loved the delicious dump truck dirt pudding pie! That night we then had Kaki's 21st birthday at Esperanzas, which is owned by the same people who own Joe T's. They had an AMAZING band, the cutest cake, and of course delicious Joe T's was catered. A couple of times I had to smell the margaritas...my mouth was watering for one. No worries though, I had a virgin strawberry daiquiri and more cake that weekend than I can think about. Man, were we pooped by the end of Saturday night. I really wish I would have taken some more pictures of this eventful weekend.

The Boys-not too sure why they had their sunglasses on


The Hubby and I (they LOVE having a D.D now)


This past weekend Angie, Jason, Ben, and I went and saw the Time Traveler's Wife. It was good, and I definitely had a few meltdowns. Angie and Ben were laughing at me, I seem to cry so easily now. Yesterday I was at a light when a motorcycle cop stopped traffic. Tons and tons of motorcycle's went zooming by for probably 5-7 minutes. I thought it was for a funeral, since a funeral home is right down the street. I got all choked up and tears started streaming down my face...Big Baby. Come to find out I was talking to my MIL and she told me it was some motorcycle ride they have around Arlington each year. Wow, did I feel stupid. Ha. Anyway, Saturday night we headed down to the Stockyards for a surprise birthday dinner for John. We went to Risky's Steakhouse, because Baylee had said that John had been dying to try Risky's because they served cow balls. GROSS. Well John had his cow balls, and I even tried a teeny little bite. John described them as tasting like chicken, but some parts it's like chicken jello. I think from now on I will pass on cow balls, and am so glad I did not get the jello part.

All the girls with the Birthday boy...wish the picture wasn't blurry

I have been feeling great and the belly just keeps on getting bigger :)! I have actually really enjoyed pregnancy so far. My jeans definitely do not fit anymore, as you can tell in the pictures. I am having to wear the bella band, which can be uncomfortable when I am sitting too long. I am on a search for maternity jeans. I have looked everywhere and none of them seem to fit me because most of them start at a size 4. They are huge in the booty and the legs. I have been to Destination Maternity, Motherhood, Burlington, Target, and A Pea In A Pod. A Pea In A Pod did have a pair that fit me, but were $230, and I think that is just so high for maternity jeans that I will not be wearing for that long. Does anyone have any suggestions???? Here are my 14 week pictures.
