Adam's Birthday!!!

October 14 was Adam's birthday, but due to both of our schedules (and some extra planning and plotting on my part) we weren't able to celebrate until Friday. We went to a dinner that Adam thought would be just the 2 of us. I had made reservations for between 7 and 7:30. It's a good thing I gave them the later time and tried for the earlier time because with the stinkin traffic we hit we didn't get there until 7:30. When we finally got to the restaurant Adam was excited to see that it was Quaker Steak and Lube. Oh, but that was only the beginning.
When we walked in I gave them our name and they took us to our table.... where my parents, his parents, his siblings, and his best friend Zac and his dad Paul were all waiting for us! SURPRISE! He was soo excited! We ate great, had fabulous cake that my parents brought, and he got to open fun gifts from everyone.After all the fun and everyone but his sibs left, we were taking all his gifts out to the car. On the way to the cars (they were parked near each other) I asked who was riding with us and who was going to be riding back to our apartment with Kelley in her car. Adam stopped, jaw dropped and amazed that the surprises weren't over. He was excited when he realized that he was going to be able to spend all of Saturday with his sibs. It was a great birthday weekend and I loved planning every minute of it for Adam and seeing how surprised and happy he was with everything made it more than worth it. I love you Adam!

New Start

After months of aggravation and getting the run-around and almost not having a place to live for a bit, we are now in our beautiful new apartment. We have been here for about 2 months and absolutely love it. We went from a itty-bitty 2 bedroom/1 bath to a much larger 2 bedroom/1.5 bath and all the wonderful storage space one would want. (Our storage space in the old place was the 2nd bedroom). All this space is going to really come in handy since Adam and I are expecting our first child in the Spring!

I am currently 15 weeks with a cute little belly. We had our second appointment yesterday and got to hear the heartbeat again. It was so much stronger and louder and much easier to find than the first time. I have had no morning sickness and have been feeling great that I sometime wonder if the little tyke is still in there doing its thing, so it was a great to hear that its little heart is good and strong.
I'm really excited to feel the baby move and have been told that it should be soon. I am disappointed though that I haven't been craving anything. When did some of you start feeling your baby move and what did you crave? Am I too late to get the cravings? I was soo excited for that part... sending Adam for random mid-night food runs and odd sandwiches and stuff. Maybe I'll just make some up to fill my silly void.
