Weekend in Wine Country

I had some hotel points that were about to expire so I thought why not use them and see what Napa is all about. Even though it is only 90 minutes away neither of us had ever been there. The weather was perfect (thank goodness since we were planning to bike). We went on a long bike ride around Yountville (just north of Napa), stopped by a delicious bakery for lunch, stopped again for a snack at a random famer's market along the road and used Yelp to find a dinner place in Petaluma. We ate at a Mediterranean restaurant that was a bit off the beaten path, but the food was just as good as the yelpers told us it would be. Such a fun weekend!

Game-Set-Match

We went to a professional men's tennis tournament with our friends Brett & Aubrey. I can't stand watching tennis on TV, but seeing it live is awesome! It was great to get out and enjoy some of the fun things around the city! Also, thanks to Brett's new job we got amazing parking right across the street from the HP Pavilion!

Music to My Ears!

Over the past couple of days random strangers have asked me things like "when are you due?" and "how far along are you?". I couldn't be happier because this means that I am finally past that "is she pregnant or did she just gain weight" point. Keep the pregnancy questions coming!

It's a BOY!

The ultrasound place told me it was going to be 2 1/2 more weeks until they could get me in. I just couldn't bear the thought of waiting until then, especially after being told it could be a girl, so I called to see what other ultrasound locations I could go to. I had to drive to San Mateo and I may have slightly fibbed that I was a bit farther along than I actually was, but I was able to get an appointment the next day! The Dr. almost laughed when I said we were told it was probably a girl. She said that after 35 years of work she'll quit her job if it's not a boy. We can't wait for our little baby boy to arrive.

The ultrasound technician loved cruise ships so when I told her we worked on cruise ships she was my new best friend. She did the 3D images "just for fun" and took way more pictures than she needed to. Here are some of my favorites:
Camera shy...Once we started the 3D images he covered his face with his arm so we couldn't get a good shot of his face. After several attempts though we did get this profile picture.
His tiny little feet!

Boy or Girl???

We thought today was the day we were finally going to find out what the stork is bringing us, but no such luck. The Dr. said that if he had to guess he would say it is girl (the last ultrasound it looked like a boy), but he didn't know for sure. Next week I have an anatomy scan where we'll find out for sure! I guess one more week of suspense and one more week until the shopping begins!
