I'm 30?!!

I can't believe I just celebrated my 30th birthday. I never believed my parents when they told me time flies. I remember being a kid and feeling like time was crawling. And now 30 years have gone by in the blink of an eye.

Celebrating a milestone birthday while pregnant was interesting. I let Eric off easy and told him we could save the big party for my 35th. So we had a nice, relaxing weekend. 

I dropped Charlee off with her Granny and Papa on Friday afternoon. We were all supposed to meet in Orangburg, but due to a situation at the school, I ended up driving her to their house. I was really proud of myself for getting there without using my GPS! When I got home, Eric was home early. He gave me my presents: Godiva chocolate and a gift certificate for a prenatal massage, manicure, and pedicure! He definitely knows the way to my heart. After a nap we went out for Indian food and to see Kingsmen. 

Sitting in a movie theater when you're feeling nauseous is an interesting experience. I sat in my seat for a good 20 minutes debating if I should try to go to the bathroom but end up shaking things up too much and getting sick in the aisle on the way, or just getting sick at my seat and then getting stuff to clean it up afterwards. Thankfully the feeling eventually passed. That doesn't happen very often, so it was like a birthday miracle. 

The next morning I woke up to meet Malory at Ms. Roses for Saturday brunch. As always, we had a blast and the food was delicious. In an effort to avoid getting sick again, I went home and took another nap before my date night with Eric. 

He planned for us to get dinner at Crave and then go to a comedy show at Theatre 99. However, our server was terrible (I rarely say that, but he would literally be looking around for something to do and would ignore tables waiving at him for attention. It took 30 minutes for him to acknowledge us again after bringing us water). So, we ended up missing the comedy show, which was probably for the best. Dinner was delicious, but I started feeling awful almost as soon as we got in the car. We were on our way to go bowling when I told Eric to take me home instead. Nothing ruins a romantic night out more than morning sickness. Nothing! Also, I will never eat garlic risotto ever again. 

Yesterday we went to Kimber's 3rd birthday party. I can't believe she's 3! The kids had a great time playing in the bounce house. Charlee spent a lot of the party playing by herself in the sand box. I don't think she likes crowded spaces too much. She must get that from her mama. The weather was beautiful and it was nice to sit in the shade with the breeze after such a rough night. 

Tomorrow we will hear our jelly bean's heartbeat for the first time and schedule our gender reveal ultrasound! I am so excited about to find out if we are having a boy or another girl!
