Lots of Visitors

If you know us, you know we LOVE visitors. This past week/weekend we were lucky enough to have lots of visitors. On Tuesday night I picked up my little sister Letty from the San Francisco airport. She was flying home from Ecuador after working at an orphanage for 2 1/2 months. It is always so much fun to spend time with Letty, ask anyone who knows her. Ollie also loved having his Aunt "Betty" (his pronunciation) around. We didn't do much while she was here, mostly just hanging out outside since the weather was so awesome, and of course shopping.

And the sidewalk, this kid LOVES to vacuum

On Friday some of our best friends came down from Sacramento to visit. My friend Brendi and her two kids, plus Brendi's sister Brianna, whos boyfriend lives in San Jose. Needless to say, we didn't see too much of Brianna ;) When they got in we packed some snacks and headed to Rancho San Antonio Open Space Preserve. There is a cute little farm about a mile in. It was a really warm day, and it felt so nice to get out. That night we ate dinner at home and just hung out. Saturday our other best friend Stacie came down from San Ramon to hang out. We did a little shopping and then went to the Cheesecake Factory for dinner, we should have got a picture of our group (and of Ollie throwing a MASSIVE tantrum...it was awesome). That night we had lots of girl talk and played games. Sunday we all went to church and then Brendi headed home. Letty stayed to babysit for me while I worked Monday but I ended up being sick so she just took the train back Monday. It was a great weekend and I am so lucky to have such awesome friends. Btw, Jason is the best husband ever. He was so good to just stay out of our hair and let us be together. Thanks honey.

Thanks for coming guys, we loved having you.

Pregnancy Update:
I had a Drs appt today (15 weeks) and got to hear the heartbeat. It was a pretty uneventful appt, which is good. We have our big ultrasound appt on April 20th. Can't wait to find out if Ollie is going to have a baby brother, or sister. I'm leaning toward brother :)
