Birthday weekend

It was my birthday last Saturday. i turned 23. This was not a big deal, especially compared my news from Friday. However, it was a very nice weekend. My favorite thing about my birthday is that the lilacs are usually in full bloom that day. And you go outside and the sweet-smelling flowers seem to be saying "Happy birthday, jessica!"

Kris worked until about 7 PM on Saturday, so i went to my parent's house during the day and played Wii pool with my mom for about 3 hours. She and i are seriously addicted to that game. Kris got done with work and brought Chipotle to my parent's house for dinner (my fav preggo craving) and then we played more pool. Kris is much better at it than my mom, but he's played real pool before and knows all the right angles. My mom and i are working on it though.

On Sunday, i played at church, and we went back to my parent's house to eat lunch. Kris went to his parent's house all afternoon to help them get their house ready for my brother-in-law's wedding that will be there next Saturday. So my mom and i watched Juno (cute movie!) and *shocker* played some more pool.

At about 6 PM, i went to Kris' parent's house, where a lot of their family had come to eat a Famous Dave's feast and celebrate my birthday. It was fun! i got some candles, some money for garage saling, a Target gift card, and this super-cute bag that i love from my sister-in-law, who has practically the best taste of anyone i know.

And then i was given some stuff for Cadence! My SIL, who is the first person who gave us anything for David, too, gave me this adorable dress and pair of ballet slippers for Cadence. i thought i'd die with all the cuteness.

My MIL gave me this pink furry dress coat and hat, which are both lined with pink satin. Um, i LOVE them.

The hanger was almost just as cute as the coat and hat! i love the little pink flower:)

It was a very nice weekend. i found out i was having a girl!, got some CUTE baby stuff, birthday gifts, and got to play as much Wii pool as i wanted. :)

Happy Memorial Day, everyone! Please be safe. Also drive the speed limit. People are getting pulled over going 35 in a 30 this weekend. i don't want any of you to get speeding tickets!

Happy Belated BDay! How cute is that coat! Aren't you so excited you're going to be able to dress that little girlie up?

Happy Birthday!

I can't believe you have a name for your girl already!! Rae is a middle name we're thinking of, but we have no first name. Did you have Cadence picked out when you were preggo with David?
