Friend or should I say Sister.

16 week picture

One of my best friends Tracy came down to visit last weekend. She was here for 5 days and yet it still never seems like enough time. Why does the time always have to go by so fast when we visit each other. We originally met through blogging and now she is literally my best friend or I like to call her my soul sister. God knew I needed someone like her in my life and he placed her in my life at exactly the right time. Even though we live several hundred miles from each other, we pretty much talk every single day either through twitter, texting or on the phone, and skype. She has definitely been that one friend that just understands me. We just GET each other, if that even makes sense. We always have a blast together and the laughs and even serious talks are just simply the best. Do you have that kind of friend? The one that just gets you, that knows what you are thinking before you even have to say anything. That is one thing I absolutely adore about her and she has the sweetest soul of anyone I know. I was so thankful to spend lots of time with her and us just hanging out before my sweet baby gets here. We both realized this will probably be our last girls trip only without the babies for a while. It kind of makes me sad but excited at the same time. I just adore her little boy so much and can't wait to see him grow up. We did lots of shopping of course, well mostly window shopping but still it was just as fun.

She also went with me to look at baby furniture and I found a crib and dresser that I am in love with. I can't wait to get it ordered and picked up. I have always had this vision of what I wanted my nursery to look like and I could never find furniture online of anything that I just loved so when I found this crib, I just knew it was the one. The hubby loved it also so that was a plus.

On Saturday we went out to our local airport for lunch, they have a nice cafe with the BEST burgers. It was so big I could only eat half of my burger. It was a gorgeous day and such a nice and different atmosphere than any chain restaurant. They also happened to have a few old planes out there too from the 40s. Those were really neat to see and it was fun to watch the little 2 seater planes take off and land. After lunch we headed up to my work and I got our mini ultrasound machine to take a look at the baby. We got a good view of the baby and good see him or her sucking its thumb and wiggling all around. I was so glad Tracy got to see the baby and Todd came up to see to. It was so fun to just watch the baby move all around and not feeling it.

We had been going going so much that on Sunday we were lazy and just stayed in comfy clothes all day and then had Mexican for dinner for Tracy's last meal in Texas. :)

I had so much fun having my best friend here and I can't wait for her to come back after the baby is born.
