Oops-a-Daisy!

We were upgraded on our flight down to Naples last week. While I'm sure annoying to those in the cabin, the extra space and row to ourselves is such a nice treat with the little guy.

He did a great job and when we landed, he must have squealed or laughed because he caught the attention of the guy sitting in front of us. He said "I hardly knew there was a baby behind me," (which I tried to explain to hubby is the highest compliment possible in air travel, but he was still clinched with the stress of flying with a baby...)

Anyhoo, the guys asks if Ben likes to read. I say 'of course!' and he tells us he is a children's book author, and then promptly gives us a copy of his latest work. How awesome is that?

It's called Oops-a-Daisy (author is David Algrim), and has the nifty lift-and-reveal tabs that Ben absolutely adores. It's a cute little story about common mishaps of kids.

It's definitely worth checking out or picking up for your next baby shower.

And thanks for the free copy David!

Hum, ok I still can't figure out how to get the baby pics up. They are saved as PDFs, DW resaved as jpegs but I still can't figure out how to get them on. They aren't showing up as jpegs when I try to attach. AGH! Hubby will resave tomorrow so you can see the cuteness soon.

This week was a big pile of garbage which means I still haven't written about how awesome the ultrasound was. Coming this weekend, promise.

Instead of bitching about all the things that were SO annoying about this week, I'm going to share a few great things that did make their way in - more than three things I'm grateful for:

- Ultrasound was truly best 30 minutes of TV I've ever seen. More on this but can't be said enough.
- Baby S is wiggling and dancing all the time now and every time I feel him, I smile (for some reason I feel like I have a secret no one knows about - though at this point the belly is no secret).
- I found $80 on the sidewalk Thurs while walking the dog - how sweet is that?!?!
- I love other moms. I have a whole post on this coming soon but moms rock and I can't get enough of their tips and advice. Keep 'em coming!!
- We had a great event tonight for BK, thanks to my kickass team who pulled it all together with very little help from me.
- We have two renters lined up to look at Winona tomorrow. Fingers crossed!
- I'm diving into Twitter ("cityretreat" there too but I'm going to have to watch for a bit before I dive in, not totally sure how it works just yet).
- Bellydance maternity store is having a sale tomorrow, I'm buying.
- My airplane did not snap in half and fall from the sky as I was positive would happen on Thursday night.
- Hubby agreed to Bugaboo suddenly after initial resistance.
- Went to great muscle pump class this am and my instructor is preggo too so she is going to take a few prenatal classes and bring back the moves for us.

I'm off to bed. Making the list of positives has nearly washed away the week. Hopefully tomorrow I'll wake up liking everyone around me :)

Happy weekend!
