WI visit

We flew home to WI on Friday, the 20th and arrived that evening.  As always, every minute of the short trip was planned.  We hung out with my parents Friday evening and got to see their pics from their Cabo trip before running back to the airport at midnight to pick up Celia.  Saturday we met Brooke for Culvers, then went to Ryan and Michelle's baby's baptism party, followed by a high school get together at their house that evening.  Check out this picture!--we took a similar one in Ryan's basement about 10 years ago, but things look a little different now--lots of spouses and kids!

Sunday was my baby shower.  My mom, grandma, mother-in-law, and "my girls" planned and executed an amazing day.  Great food, fun games, cute favors, and an amazing diaper cake.  Everyone's hard work made for a beautiful day.  Thanks to all who came and for all the great gifts--John and I really appreciated it!!  

Sunday evening, John and I had dinner with John's parents.  Monday AM we hung out with our new nephew (and his parents), then had lunch with my brother and Grandma Strube before I headed out to the airport (John flew out the next AM)

My trip home was quite eventful--both of my flights were delayed, one had a moderate amount of turbulence that I thought i could handle until the guy next to me got out his Burger King--ugh, nauseous! ...then when I got back to San Fran at midnight, I suddenly realized I didn't have any keys!!--we had only brought one set to WI, and guess who still had them?!  I sat in the airport for about 30 minutes trying to stay calm and attempting to think of some sort of solution that would allow my overly exhausted self some sort of sleep that evening before needing to go to work 8 hours later.  To make a long story short, my landlord just happened to still be awake and was GRACIOUS enough to let me into my apartment--i wanted to KISS that woman's feet!  

It is now 9 days later and my exhaustion level has not been resolved yet...I haven't had a day off since because I had a continuing education class all day on Sat. and Sun. and then decided to work some overtime at work to try and get some extra vacation for my maternity leave--but guess what, BAD idea!  I now have a bad cold.
