this could go in a hundred different directions: i could write about how much fun it was to have my parents here with me for a glorious 6.5 days, i could write about how stinken busy we were and how by the end of the week conrad was so out of whack we all thought he had entered the Terrible Twos on bad crank, i could write about all the places we went to and things we did and what we ate and what we said and how enduring it is to be around my father and his zany tactics and behavior, and i could also write about my perfect mother and how she made everything just as perfect as her perfect little perfect self.

but truth be told, or written, that's a lot to write about and now that the house is empty and conrad is returning to sanity i'm realizing ALL the grown up things i need to tend to. like, paying bills. and returning calls from a week ago.
i seriously forgot the world existed while they were here. we just had too much to do to be bothered by the hodrum; i was determined to soak up every second of their visit, and i feel i did i pretty good job at it. of course, it does little in the I STILL MISS YOU LIKE HELL department, but it did wonders in the I'M NO LONGER QUITE AS HOMESICK department.
word on the street is that my sister and eric are planning a visit out here in september. there will be a new baby but i know i'll be past ready for some more quality time with The Family that makes me happy to be family.

I am glad you had fun with your family! It's hard to live far from parents and siblings, etc. :(

I could just eat you up. Seriously, you are the cutest little preggo I think I've ever seen. How does anyone keep their hands off you?
I'm sooo happy for you that had such a kickass visit with your parents. It sounds utterly rejuvinating.
Word on the street is accurate, pending financial status here in a couple of weeks. Eric and I are looking now at just flying directly into Medford and doing San Fran another time. I'll let you know how it all pans out. Soooo glad you got a visit with the folks. That pic of Daddy and Conrad is SO CUTE!

that last picture has inspired to me to be a skinny pregnant woman just like you. now if only i could lose the rest of the weight from baby #1... hmmm...
you look great!
i think having a toddler while being pregnant is the key to a slim pregnancy. just wait till chubby cheeks is 18-24 months. that should do it. ;)
