Playing catch up

Last Saturday my friends, Marissa and Heather threw a baby shower for me. It was so much fun and turned out really nice! A big thanks to everyone who came and to Heather and Marissa for all the work they put into it. Now I get to start planning Marissa's baby shower! There were seven pregnant women at my shower, unfortunately we forgot to take a picture of all of us.

My mom sent this blanket she made and an outfit that matches it perfectly!

The food was delicious!

The coolest watermelon ever!

My two favorite drinks, water and lemonade. They know me well :)
Betsie and Tiffany
Jana (had her baby this morning!) and Julie (due the day before me)
Haylee (due in Oct.), Keri (due in July), Katie, and Mallory


Mindy, Corinne (due September 9th), Heather, Marissa (due September 23rd)

Opening presents...Natelie and Becky in the background
The only game we played was nursery rhyme pictionary. It was really fun even though my team lost! I'm glad they didn't have any of those really lame shower games planned. :) This is Katie Hale drawing something!
Heather, me, Marissa with the confetti cake Marissa decorated! I don't know what I am doing with my head here...
All the presents from the shower, a pic just for my mom.

Saturday night we went to a Redbirds game with Jesse and Marissa. We were lucky enough to sit in the shade since it was extremely hot and humid. After the game they had a fireworks show which was pretty sweet.

Here's a not so flattering belly pic for all of you who have been asking for one. Just a little bigger than the last one I posted on Easter. ha ha. This is at 30 1/2 weeks.

Our friend, Gabrielle, we made at the game. She really liked my purse and loved having Zach take pictures of her!

This past Tuesday I had the day off work so I drove down to Collierville and had lunch with my friend Natalie. She is the doctor I worked for at Eclectic Eye (my first job in Memphis). I hadn't seen her since before Christmas so it was a lot of fun to get together for a few hours. Here is a picture of the Collierville Eclectic Eye staff. I do not miss having to wear black everyday, but I miss talking with these guys on a daily basis. I'm glad I have been able to keep in touch and see them every few months.

Everything else has been going really well. I have been so blessed to have a complication free pregnancy. Although, I haven't forgotten how miserable I was in the beginning when I was sick 24/7. I go to the doctor every 2 weeks now and am measuring right on target. I've had some awesome swelling in my feet and ankles lately. Really, last week it looked like there was a tennis ball under my skin where my ankle should be!

Zach is doing awesome in school. He is in the clinic 3 days a week now, seeing real patients! I would be so nervous if I were him, but he is such a natural at talking with people, he hasn't struggled with it. Actually his staff doctor told him the only thing he needs to work on is not talking so much with the patients. :) I think that's a good problem to have! He has even had a few Spanish exams, which has been nice for him since he hasn't been able to use his Spanish much since moving to Memphis. We also should be finding out where we will be going for externs next year pretty soon so we'll keep you posted!
