March's Belly Shot

Ahhhhhhh, this should be the last belly shot for the blog. After this it will be all about Lucky Wilt. I cannot believe how big I am or how close we are to meeting Lucky. We cannot wait! I added a picture of Lucky's good looking Daddy since this is the last month of belly shots...we can all determine who Lucky looks more like in just a few weeks. :)

Our SURPRISE Baby Shower!

Friday, February 27, 2008 I was very surprised to walk into a my own Baby Shower! (Funny thing was I was holding a birthday gift for a friend that I thought we were surprising with a B-day party.) Adam and I were quite touched to have the few friends we've made out here spend their Friday evening with us, celebrating our soon to come baby.

Our friends that threw the party even had our family get involved by sending baby pictures of Adam & I to decorate with, along with funny childhood stories about us that the guest had to guess who did what. We noshed on lovely grilled meats & veggies & of course cake. We received a bunch of really great books for Baby Wilt, too. It was quite the night, not because we got a baby shower, but because it showed us that even in a short period of time you can still make some really good friends. The only thing that would have made it perfect would have been to have the rest of our dear friends & family with us......

The Countdown......

The Countdown begins....we have 34 days to go until Lucky Wilt arrives (supposedly). Adam's countdown chain makes the waiting game a lot more fun, at least ripping the links off does. ;)

Happy Valentine's Day!

So they do deliver flowers in Singapore! Adam surprised me with a nice bouquet of roses. We also had a nice dinner out. It was a good V-day.

My Very First Tea Party!

I made a new friend! She's three & a half, but our age gap doesn't seem to get in the way of our friendship. Her name is Ms. Julia & she invited Ms. Lisa (sometimes known as Boots if we are playing Candy Land) to her very first Tea Party yesterday in honor of Valentine's day. We had pink cupcakes, cookies, brownies & finger sandwiches with our tea. Then we had craft time & made lollipop flowers (her mommy is a cousin of Martha Stewart's I think). Afterwards Mr. Boots joined us for pizza & then he turned into a Super Hero! It was a magical day.

Super Bowl Sun....ahhhh Monday

Super Bowl Sunday was actually televised live Monday morning here in Singapore. We were fortunate enough to find a neighborhood bar & grill that was hosting a Super Bowl party...actually Super Bowl Breakfast. We took it all in at Dan Ryan's Chicago Bar & Grill at 7 a.m. Monday morning with giant pancakes. (Adam luckily was able to take a vacation day.) It was a completely different Super Bowl experience & sort of heart warming to be in a room filled with so many Americans. The game was excellent too, though my team didn't win......

On our walk home Adam decided to give "Where's Waldo" a run for his money while we passed by some of the many art sculptures that line the streets here.

Busy Daddy....

Thanks to Adam, all of our baby equipment is now assembled! He put it all together with not a single bad word and while Mom-to-be got to rest. What a Dad! He even had some fun playing with it afterwards.
