Last weekend was my Atlanta baby shower. My wonderful friends Kathy, Melanie, and Stacy could not have planned a better party! It was so much fun to see everyone and it was great to get so many more things we need for Lyla. It is pretty crazy how much stuff one little person needs. Now if her furniture would just arrive we could really get her nursery all set. Right now her room is filled with clothes and Fran jokes she needs to clean her room already! :)
This past weekend we flew to Boston to watch my best friend Marcy become Mrs. Marcy Oberle. She was a stunning bride and we had a wonderful weekend celebrating with her and Jason. Lyla continued to grow but luckily still managed to fit into the bridesmaid dress (barely). Beautiful black satin mermaid dresses were not made for a 71/2 month pregnant chick. haha
As of today we are down to less than 10 weeks before our little Lyla arrives! I think she is starting to run out of room so hopefully she can stay (and keep me) comfy for a few more weeks!

Week 27 - Battle of the Bulge
Week 27 came and went....crazy how fast it's going. So the week started off with some baby education as Ashley and I attended an 8 hour (yes, 8 hours....) birthing class. Going in I'm thinking "...8 hours....why do I need doctors and nurses if I'm spending an entire Saturday learning about the whole event.......I could deliver little Lyla myself". A couple graphic videos later I was wondering if I'd even be able to be in the delivery room......
Joking aside though, the class was very worthwhile. Birth is an amazing thing..definitely a little gross, but very, very amazing.
So I'm sure you're wondering about the title to this post. In week 27 we got to see Lyla make her Mommy's stomach move around (so cool!). However, she really likes to hang out on Ashley's right side and makes a very noticeable bulge. Ashley isn't too fond of it....I like to think of it as Momma's first disagreement with her daughter and is thus the "Battle of the Bulge" ;-)
Other than that, another week closer to meeting my little lady....can't wait!!
