32 Weeks

It was a quiet weekend for the Simmermon gang. Jesse worked most of the day Friday so I just cleaned and organized. Today we went to Del Mar and walked on the beach, then took the kid to the boardwalk but we were asked to leave after only a few minutes. Furry friends aren't allowed on the boardwalk even though bums are, and we think Derby is better behaved than most of the bums.

Baby Shower

Last weekend was my baby shower! I flew to Pennsylvania for the weekend to celebrate and fortunately the weather held up. They were supposed to get a big snow storm Saturday, but it ended up not hitting until Sunday afternoon.  Transitioning from 75 degree weather to 20 degree weather was a bit shocking but I was tough :)  

I wish I had more time to spend back home but it was great to see everyone and celebrate Baby S!

It was a great weekend! My mom, sister, and Lindsey did an awesome job of making my shower absolutely perfect and memorable.  Thank you to everyone who worked so hard to make it a special day for me and Baby S!
