Weekend Wrap Up

*
Well, it's Monday morning and I barely feel like I had a weekend. Isn't that the worst? No sleeping in whatsoever... BOO!

Saturday, Lee and I had our first birthing class. It went from 10am - 5pm with a 1/2 hour break for lunch. Seriously, is it a good idea to force a bunch of 8 month pregnant chicks to sit in uncomfortable chairs for THAT long? They really need to invest in some La-Z-Boys.

The nurses that taught the class were pretty entertaining though and there were videos to keep our attention. Although, some of the videos scared me a bit... I have SEEN a video of a birth before, but not since like 8th grade health class. It seemed much more distant and unrealistic then. I mean, I thought in the 15 years since then, maybe we would have figured out how to get the guys to carry the babies... Just kidding. Anyway, there were definitely some moments of "Um, yeah, my body is going to do WHAT?!?" We also got a tour of the hospital which I liked. I can now ENVISION where we need to go when the time comes, and that makes me feel much more prepared.

After birthing class, we went up to Merrillville for a Target run. We were going to go to BW3's to watch the Michigan St game, but it was PACKED! So, we took advantage of halftime and just drove home.

On Sunday, we got up early to head down to Lafayette for our nephew Austin's 2nd birthday. They made hotdogs on the grill and had Dog N Suds coney dog sauce to put on it... MMMMmm! There were also cupcakes & ice cream. Afterwards, we hung with my mom for awhile, then went up to Monticello to hang with Lee's parents for a bit, hit up Wal-Mart for some groceries and headed home. I never knew Wal-Mart groceries were so cheap! So much better than our actual grocery store. I'm sold.

Next weekend is going to be another busy one with day 2 of birthing class on Saturday followed by Easter on Sunday. (Woohoo for only one more Friday of Lent!)
