Another fun way to announce a pregnancy, and what I did for a couple of girlfriends whom I knew would be particularly excited about Indy and would likely be spending a lot of time with him: put together a mini-care package...
Our last trip up to look at houses...plus a surprise for Kendrick.
Last Valentine's Day, I had just found out I was pregnant, so we decided to skip the hullabaloo in favor of sodas and ravioli at our favorite neighborhood pizzeria, Gino's.
This year, we had a little one in tow, and, not wanting to add a sprinkling of tiny wails to anyone's fancy Valentine's Day dinner, we decided to make Gino's a tradition. We snuggled in a back corner, chatted with the elderly couple next to us, drank the house red, and ate lots of cheesy pasta.
Oh, and I wore a fancy dress. (That's a Rebecca Taylor bought during my sophomore year of college - it sat in the back of my closet for a few years because I felt like the split sleeve, mid-calf hem and low neckline looked dated, but now it's practically vintage and is starting to look stylin' again. And I was inspired by the 1920s cocktail-party looks at the Erickson Beamon show last week, so silk and lace it was.)
Saturday afternoon, we got good news. And celebrated accordingly.
Still have to go through the inspections process, and things can always fall through up until the point when contracts are signed, but...
