Acid Reflux

As I am writing this, all I am thinking about is how this acid reflux is no fun. I don't know if it is from what I had for lunch-- Goulash thanks to Nick :)-- or my stomach being smashed and Brynn moving constatnly and forcing my stomach acid into the back of my throat! All I keep asking myself is if I would be better off going and getting sick in the toilet... if I would feel better, because right now it is not a good feeling.

So Satuday.... where do I begin?!?! What a day! Murphy's Law-- of course it was going to be the first snow, and a HUGE snow at that! My shower was at 11 am at Amy's house. She lives in Cottage Grove. I woke up Saturday morning from not being able to sleep at about 6 am-- looked out the window, and could not believe all the snow that was already on the ground! I didn't think it was suppose to begin until later in the afternoon. My first thought was Shannon-- oh crap. She was trying to get on an 8am flight from Chicago. Her flight ended up being delayed, and then when they reached Mpls., had to circle around a few times before they could land. She made it, but it was close! I had two friends not able to make it due to the weather, but was so happy that everyone else weathered the storm and made it! Jodi drove down from Elk River, and Amber drove in on Friday night from West Bend, WI (near Milwaukee). It was so nice to see her, it had been way too long. I ended up being about 45 min late to my own shower... but the weather was why. My friend Kat met at my house so we could drive together. Made it here just fine, but got stuck of course right in front of my house. With a few little tricks, and about 20-25 minutes later, we got her out of the road and parked into the parking in front of my house. I still had to drive to Amys, and pick up my sisters at my parents house. By this point, the roads were plowed on the way, and traffic wasn't bad. I just drove slow.

The shower was so perfect! Amy and Sara did such a great job hosting. The food was wonderful-- brunch themed. The cakes were delicious. The games we played were fun too! I hadn't played either of them before. We played one with candy bars... there were pictures of a bunch of different types on a poster board. Amy read things such as "Breastfeeding", and we had to shoose from the candy bars which on fit the descriptions. In that case, it would be Milky Way. So fun. The other game was a string game... everyone had to measure a piece of string/ ribbon and have it fit the closest around my belly. That was fun too!

I got some great things for Brynn, and best of all, it was just so nice to catch up with everyone and just chat!! I truly am blessed with some amazing friends in my life.

Tomorrow is my 31 week appt. From here on out I will be going every 2 weeks Dr. said. I am curious how my blood pressure will be, since it has been high... and what they will say about that. I am also curious to find out if she has flipped yet and is head down. I feel like she is... based on where her hiccups have been-- and she has been getting them so much lately!!

I will update after the doc tomorrow if there is anything significant to report. I also forgot my camera for my shower since I was in such a hurry trying to get out of the hosue and to Amy's... so hopefully Amy/ Sara can give me some to post on here :)
