Girl's weekend!

I had a really great weekend with the girls (plus Kyle lol)! Carissa and Chelsea got to my house on Friday night, and we all went out to eat at Red Robin before relaxing at home... everyone was tired from a long day! Saturday morning we were kind of lazy, eating breakfast and watching TV, then when we got motivated we decided to... you guessed it, shop! :) I drove us downtown to Pioneer Square, which is nightmarish for me because of all the traffic and one way streets, but we survived. We shopped a little in the mall, but then spotted a Nordstrom Rack across the steet... that's where we all really went crazy! Then we decided to grab some lunch and get a movie to take home to watch that evening. We rented Confessions of a Shopaholic, which was really cute!

For dinner we made my favorite... breakfast! It was delicious! We made french toast, bacon, hashbrowns, and eggs... yummy!

Chels and Carissa!

Sisters!

Cooking...

It was a relaxing weekend, and we just enjoyed chatting and being in eachother's company. I think we'll make it a tradition for next year! :)

I'm 11 weeks tomorrow, and here's what's going on with baby Hall:

The baby is just over 2 inches long now and weighs about a third of an ounce; it is about the size of a fig! The body is straightening out and the torso is lengthening. Baby is busy kicking and stretching, even though I won't be able to feel it for at least another month or two.! Hair follicles are forming, and fingernail and toenail beds are beginning to develop (nails will actually start to grow in the next few weeks). Those nails are forming on individual fingers and toes, having recently separated from the webbed hands and feet of just a few weeks ago. Ovaries are developing if it's a girl, and if it's a boy, the testes are already producing testosterone. The hands and feet are in front of the body, ears are nearly in their final shape, there are open nasal passages on the tip of the nose, and a tongue and palate in the mouth. Also, tiny tooth buds are beginning to appear under the gums. Amazing how much it changes from week to week! :)

I turn 23 on Thursday, which means that it's already been two years since Kyle popped the question... I can't believe how quickly time passes, it seems like it was just two months ago! But our first wedding anniversary is quickly approaching, it's already less than six weeks away! So much has happened in two years, and we have been blessed in so many aspects of our lives... as I turn another year older, I realize how grateful I am for health and happiness. Sentimental, but so true! :)

I have a coworker getting married next weekend, so we're going out on Friday night to celebrate and hang out... other than that, we are just going to relax and try to stay out of the heat... it's back! Hope you all have a good weekend!

Happy birthday Kyanne!

We'll miss you so much Lindsey, we love you and will be thinking about you!
