What I look forward to: Feeling him move and getting the nursery ready.
Weekly Wisdom: I am so grateful that Baby P is healthy and that I am feeling better, trying to enjoy these moments and Chris and I are trying to be spontaneous while we can be. Last week on a whim we decided to go to the Bunbury Music Festival in Cincinnati. It was early afternoon on Friday when we decided to go and we left by 4:00 pm. We got to see two of Chris' favorite bands and then it poured rain as we were leaving. So, we got to walk across the bridge to Newport in a torrential downpour. It was definitely an adventure!
