Well, we didn't end up going shopping today, at least not in the conventional sense. I called Jess about 11:30 and told her I was going to lunch and asked if she wanted to go with me. By the time she was ready to go it was a little after 12:00. Now to a normal person, this is not a large amount of time to wait. However, according to this little munchkin she might as well have asked me to wait for 3 hours.

By the time we got to the restaurant I was starting to feel ill. Luckily, it didn't take long for the food to get to us. Unluckily I still have not gotten my appetite back and so I could only eat about half of my meal. Do you have any idea how happy I will be when I can once again sit down and eat large amounts of food in one sitting? This half a meal crap is for the birds!!

After lunch we went over to my Father-in-laws to go over the invitations and then we decided to run out to a second hand store. While the store had lots of things, I already have most of what we need, besides clothes so I didn't really have much to look at. It was also REALLY hot in the store so I spent much of our time there in front of one of the two fans.

The one thing that I did find that I am somewhat excited about is a Snuggli. I think that it is one of the ones that you can wear on your front or on your back and since my mother requested one that she could do that with I purchased it. Unfortunately it did not have the instructions with it, so I need to get on the website and look it up but for $14 I couldn't pass it up.

Oh, I almost forgot. Today was the first day I got to try out my new maternity clothes. I bought these underwear at Motherhood that are just wonderfully comfortable. Unfortunately they have the tag from hell. Whomever designed this should be drug out into the street and shot. This tag is at least an inch and a half long. Who in their right mind is going to be comfortable wearing underwear with an inch and a half tag running down your crack? I promptly cut it off.

After we got back from shopping Jake and I headed out to visit an old friend of mine from high school. She is back from Baghdad for three weeks and then is back there again until November so I wanted to stop by and see her. Since I was wearing the maternity clothes, it was one of the first times I didn't feel really self conscious. People could tell I was pregnant and not just eating too many twinkies.

We stayed there for a couple of hours and by that point I was wiped out. I didn't get my weekend nap in and so I was ready for bed. We got home at 9:00 and I think I was asleep by 10:00. Great Saturday night partier huh?
