Our weekend together at last!

We've been so busy over the past several months that we've not had time to hang out together as a family just doing the regular family thing - park, errands, play, movies, that sort of thing. This last weekend was the last one before things get pretty busy for us with travel. We live 4-6 hours from our family & friends and over the next 3 weekends we will be joining them in Indiana for birthday parties galore! This week alone is my mother's, mine, and Daughter's birthdays - next week we're celebrating a really good friend's son's first birthday, and the weekend after that will be Husband's grandfather's 80th! I'm so excited to get together and see everyone for such happy occasions, but realizing daily how much my stamina has suffered since becoming increasingly pregnant along with chasing an almost-2-year-old. This past weekend we spent a few hours at a local park for a photo shoot (courtesy of moi and my tireless assistant, Husband). There were outfit changes, venue changes, snacks, and play to be had all while I had my face glued to the back of a camera. Ultimately we had a good time and I got my picture fix. We all 3 came home exhausted and ready for naps though. Yesterday we spent time at the grocery store, cleaning our fridge, that sort of mundane thing that has unfortunately fallen by the wayside since becoming increasingly busy with life. I'm very much looking forward to Thursday. I'm praying for only good news. It's funny to think that the day after my mother turned 25 she was seeing my face for the first time, albeit because I was born a day after her birthday and not via an ultrasound. This year, the day I turn 25 I'll be seeing our second's face for the first time. Maybe, some day, our first daughter will be experiencing the same thing on her 25th - you never know!
