This week I got the big bummer that I had in fact failed my glucose test. This means I have to take the three hour test in a few weeks. Not. Fun. I also started to get bad sinus pressure, congestion, and a sore throat as a result of the previous too.

On the upside, we started putting together some of the baby stuff so that our pets can hopefully start getting used to it and leave it alone. We also got to tour the hospital where little guy will be born!

We're 3/4 (or more!) of the way there!

This week we took a little mini trip down to Key West for Shane and Kats wedding. We left Friday morning and made a pit stop in Islamorada near where we got married at our favorite bakery for brunch and to pick up some of my favorite key lime cookies.




Once we got to Key West we checked into our beautiful hotel, took a little nap, and then it was time to party!














On Saturday we had breakfast at Pepe's the oldest restaurant in the keys, then we checked out the butterfly conservatory and the southernmost point of the United States. It was a VERY long walk from our hotel.








We were very tired and sweaty by the time we made it back so we grabbed some ice cream and went for a dip in the hotels pool.


That night we had Cuban food for dinner at El Meson de Pepe in Mallory Square. It was delicious and there was lots of music and entertainers as the sun went down over the water.







On Sunday we made one last stop at a little bakery for pastries and then we hit the road back home. Our puppies were so happy to see us!

I was still on spring break this week, and we did make it to the beach once!
I spent St. Patrick's Day still in Michigan by having lunch and going shopping with this little guy and his mommy.

Then I flew home to Florida with THIS little guy and his mommy.

There was an awful lot of put away at home, thankfully we found some storage solutions!




We also got to see little man at our ultrasound appointment on Friday. He's measuring 2 lbs, 8oz. and in the 53rd percentile.

We also, after trying two trucks, and thinking it wasn't going to fit through the nursery door, got the rocking chair into the nursery!



We ended the week at the beach, and with lunch at Boston's on the Beach. So sad to go back to work!
