I was running errands today and I ventured into Bed Bath and Beyond to buy a couple wedding gifts. I came straight from the Rush so had a tank top on that clearly showed my growing belly, and D was with me in a buggy. I asked the ladies at the front if I could look at a couple registries. They starting paging someone named Mark and complaining that "the room" was taken. I walked around the Clearance section for a few minutes wondering whey they couldn't just print out a registry, like we do at home. But anyways, I didn't want to be annoying so I patiently waited (I can't say the same for D). Finally a nice man came and found me and we sat down in the registry room. I suddenly realized they thought I wanted to set up a registry for my own wedding, not just look for one, and quickly informed the nice man that I wasn't the bride-to-be...was it really that shocking? I mean, who would come in with a baby and another on the way to register for a wedding? It would have been fun, I must say, there are a million things in there I would love to put on a list and have people buy for me, but it's not my time. It was almost as fun buying things for the sweet couples that are getting ready to get married. It seems like a lifetime ago that I was in their shoes, not just 9 years. How quickly life goes! I wouldn't trade a minute of it, especially the last decade with my sweet hubby and growing family.
David is really enjoying hearing himself talk, and it is so cute. His favorite word this week is "uh-oh, spaghetti-o" and he really thinks he is something else. He doesn't believe he is a baby anymore, he jumps right in the wrestling play sessions with Daddy. It is amazing how much they understand at this age. Sorry for this choppy post, but bedtime is calling my name. Steven keeps telling me I look tired (I think it's just because I don't have any make-up on) so I guess I'll take the opportunity to go to bed early. Nothing I would have done as a bride-to-be, but like I said, times have changed! Goodnight.
