Reunions, Facials and Shopping...Oh My!

It feels like there is always something going on and as a result, the summer is speeding along.  I can't believe it is already almost September!  We have been busy trying to get our new apartment organized, which seems to be a never-ending task.  Jared and I have been working crazy and conflicting schedules, so it sometimes feels like we will never have time to work together and get settled.  Things are really starting to come together, though, and our place is starting to feel like home.
On July 22 Jared and I went to my 10-year high school reunion.  I was one of those people who loved high school, so I had really been looking forward to seeing everyone again.  It was great catching up with a lot of old friends and I think Jared had fun meeting everyone and hearing my old stories fom high school.  He especially liked meeting the Spinazza boys, who are two of the funnest guys you will ever meet.  We are still laughing about some of the stuff they told us!

As part of my birthday present last year, my mom got me a gift certificate for a facial.  I have been so excited to go because I have never had one and it sounds amazing.  My mom and I had been having trouble finding time when we both had time to go, so we finally just took the day off and made a "Girls' Day" out of it.  Let me tell you-it was AWESOME! I know exactly what I want for  my birthday again this year.  The girl we went to was so cool and my face felt amazing afterward.  I did get a little uncomfortable because of my big baby belly, so I am looking forward to going again and having baby girl go with us in person.
After our facials we went and had a fabulous lunch and sat and chatted, which is one of my favorite things about lunch with my mom.  I can talk to her about anything and I am so lucky to have such a great lady in my life.  After lunch, and because it was a  girls' day, we went shopping for baby clothes.  It is finally sinking in that we are having a girl and I am really starting to have fun choosing outfits for our sweet baby girl.  We got some really cute stuff and I'm so excited to see her in all of it!
