It's still true, isn't it?

I love being on summer break. It is so nice not having to get up every morning and head to work. Although I know that this summer will fly by and I'll be back to 8 classes a day way too soon.

A is still really excited about the baby. He talks about it constantly, which is really sweet. He is worrying about the house a bit too much - where is the baby's room going to go? Are we going to move our room upstairs once it's all cleared out? What are we going to do about the giant office desk? Don't get me wrong, I wonder about these things too, but A is just so serious about it. I just want him to take it easy and come snuggle on a Sunday morning instead of worrying about moving the desk.


This weekend has been full of graduation stuff. Friday, we went to my cousin J's grad party. Yesterday was my sister-in-law's high school graduation. Then we went to their neighbor's party, as well as my sister's boyfriends party. Today I have my concert band concert, and then we will be going late to my SIL's party. I got her a laundry basket full of food and other stuff for college. It's strange how I'll be so sad to see her go away to college in a few months.

Friday, A's mom was awesome. I was running errands and she calls. "Hey, what are you doing for dinner? Want to go to the Melting Pot?" Um, YES! I was really worried that I was going to feel too sick to eat, and man would that be an expensive meal to waste. But I was fine. We started out with the fiesta cheese dip, which is always amazing. Then I ordered the featured salad, which was a mistake. It had an entire tomato sliced, had balls of real mozzarella cheese (blech) and had chewy greens and some nasty balsamic dressing. I took one bite and knew there was no way I could eat it. But I don't think I would have been in the mood for any kind of salad, because I had a bite of A's house salad and didn't like it either.
Mmmm, cheese - my favorite!

After the salad was the main course, where you cook all of your own meat at the table. I was sharing with A and his sister, so that only left me with one piece of each kind of meat, but that ended up being ok since I was trying to make sure my stomach didn't start hating me. Then, the best part - dessert! We did a bananas foster fondue with white chocolate, bananas of course, and cinnamon. It was so good! By the time we were done, it had been 3 hours of sitting and eating. My legs were starting to get that restless leg crud where they are all jumpy. I was glad to get home and get to bed. And thankfully, my stomach cooperated!

I hope the baby continues to stick!
