Just Like Heaven: Update

The summer is over!! James was able to get off a few days earlier than anticipated so we were able to enjoy some time with our families in San Diego as a couple. Let me tell you, I was pretty excited when I was planning a routine day and getting my oil changed and BAM! There he is waiting for me in the parking lot with beautiful flowers!! I thought he wouldn't be home for four more days and that he would miss my baby shower. We even got to go to Disneyland together :) We took my sister Lex and two year-old nephew Deacon with us and it was nice for us all to spend time together!
Last Saturday my sisters and mom put on a baby shower for Mei Li and I. It was at my oldest sister Aimee's house and it was the bomb!! Of course, it was Asian themed for our Chinese named baby girl. With an Asian theme you know there is gonna be some delish food! Beef skewers, fried rice, Chinese chicken salad, ro bao, rice cakes, lumpia.... mmmm... I am starting to drool over here. One of my closest friends went to culinary school and she insisted on making the cake and it was way beyond what I could ask for! She spent 12 hours on it! The atmosphere was pretty freaking magical, too. Lanterns hanging from the ceiling, centerpieces on the tables with bamboo and goldfish in them, little Chinese take-out box favors with candy in them. I can't believe the amount of work and thought that went into it! I have the best family and friends in the entire world. I know everyone says that but that's my story and I am sticking to it!
The pregnancy is going smoothly so far. I just have to take it one hot flash, headache, mood swing and crying spell at a time. Poor James haha but feeling and seeing the baby kick and move is worth every bit. It's still hard to believe that this is all happening and it's going by so fast! Before I know it I'll have grand babies! Uh yeah.... I better shut up now before I have a heart attack. Ha!
I will post more pics from the baby shower later.
