30 weeks and counting

Last week was a very busy week, in fact I think it was so busy that Baby Girl was pretty tired herself and let her mommy actually get some sleep over the weekend!
We went to the doctor on Wednesday and all checked out well, I had been tested for gestational diabetes and anemia and apparently my results came back so good that the doctor was impressed and continued to praise me for taking such good care of my body. Little does she know that I eat an ice cream cone practically every night! I also must have been fighting a bit of a stomach bug last week so I really did not do too much athletically until the weekend began. But man Tim and I definitely had a busy weekend.
Friday night in to Saturday morning we expereinced some really bad weather. The tornado sirens went off several times so Tim, Riley and I went downstairs to wait out the storm. Needless to say I had very little sleep that night.  Fortunately we had no damage to our house but we did see several really big trees and limbs knocked down near our house.
Tim's boss turned 50 and she had a big dinner party at the St. Regis Hotel in Buckhead on Saturday. It was a beautiful venue and once the baby comes I told Tim we may have to plan a special trip to stay there and find a baby sitter (any takers???). I completely forgot to take pictures of Tim and I dressed up so will have to get those on Easter!
I also took my first water aerobics class Saturday morning and got quite a workout. Since my doc is not wanting me to play tennis anymore she suggested that I try water aerobics and swimming instead. I really enjoyed the class and think I am going back next weekend too!
On Sunday Tim and I went to the Dogwood Festival at Piedmont Park. It was a gorgeous day outside and we managed to find a piece of artwork that we will display somewhere in our house. We walked our legs off so when we got home Sunday evening I collapsed and took a 2 hour nap. All in all we had a great weekend.
Things are really starting to get busy at the Harcourt's, it is hard to believe Baby Girl will be here in less than 10 weeks. Next weekend is Easter and I will be sure to post pictures of the updated belly and the following weekend is my baby shower! I have some of the best girlfirends a girl could ask for!
One final thing, my brother leaves for Japan on Saturday, April 23rd, for a 2 month work assignment. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers. He will be back in the States in the beginning of July just in time to see his new niece!
Until next time....
