We stayed at home for Easter and my mom, Grimmy and Josie came over in the evening. My mom did a little Easter egg hunt with Josie in our front yard that was so cute. Unfortunately Jesus was on call and had to work that day.

A big Thank You to all who attended our beautiful baby shower. We had such a great time being with our friends and family.
Our little helpers. They are so cute!
And a big thank you to Blanca, Grimmy, Jennifer, Cristina, Chana, Maria, and Mariela for helping coordinate the shower and decorating the room. It was so beautiful.

Baby's 1st Bikini
I saw this at the store and just could not resist. I can't wait to see our little FL baby in her bikini at the beach or pool.
Pregnancy Brain
It's a true affliction and it reminds me of those commercials with the egg in a frying pan and the announcer saying, "This is your brain. This is your brain on drugs." I've never done drugs (I'm a true nerd, I hate to admit) but pregnancy brain just has to be worse. Here are a few of John's favorite moments:
My hands were really dry and my knuckles were starting to crack. I apply hand lotion in the car and John starts to complain about how strong and awful my lotion smells. (For those that don't know he's all about soap and unscented deodorant and nothing else. He hates perfumes and scented anything) I start to defend my lotion while commenting that the lotion is burning my cracked hands. I pick up the bottle to read him the name of the lovely scent when I realize I had just applied SHAMPOO to my hands! Worse yet, I had been doing it for several days! It was one of those hotel samples that I had laying around the house. They're the perfect size for a purse and I was sure it was lotion. No wonder my hands were dry, I had been letting shampoo air dry on them. John almost wet his pants when I realized what I was doing.
We've had the same alarm code since we got married almost 10 years ago. One day as we walk back into the house I go to turn off the alarm and can't remember the code to save my life. I have all the right numbers but they are in the wrong order. After 3 failed attempts John calmly states, "Please, just step aside."
Our microwave has one of those radio buttons to adjust the timer. Spin it to the right to increase the time. I wanted to cook something for 90 minutes but the microwave seems broken. I yell out to John across the house that our microwave is 'skipping' from 59 to 100 and I can't cook my meal for 90 seconds. John replies, "You sure it's skipping and not just going from 59 seconds to 1 minute." Duh!!!!! Sad thing is, we've had this microwave for 6 years and I've never had this problem before.

Gasparilla
(From 2/7/09)
Here are some pictures from Gasparilla 2/7/2009. My mom and I were supposed to go just to be in the Krewe of Mambi 10 year anniversary picture. As it turned out we were too late for the picture and decided to just jump on the float and do the whole parade. It was so much fun! Although since I was completely sober the parade seemed to last FOREVER. I never realized how much a few adult beverages really help the parade atmosphere. :)

Hope
(From 1/7/09)
I know this post is 5 months late but I just can't seem to move on without honoring Hope's memory. My awesome sister-in-law passed away on January 7th. For 5 months I've been thinking about what I could write as a tribute to her in my blog. I'm a horrible writer and I'm afraid to not do her justice.
So I will keep it simple and just say, "I love you and I miss you Hope." I'm sorry I'm not so great at the speeches and emotional sharing so I'll post a link to a few really awesome tributes. Please click on the person's name below for a link to their blogs. Check out Jake's heartfelt post, Jen's beautiful photo tribute, and Ann Marie's touching celebration recap.
Truth is, when it comes to subjects that really matter I'm usually speechless. I can BS w/anyone, anywhere but don't ask me to talk about something really important to me because I just clam up...even with John.
