P. Sophie's A Baby Story: Chocolate Cake

27 Weeks now and I am ready to be done with this. The fatter I get the more ready I am! Now you can add swollen ankles and fingers to the list! Sleeping on my left side isn't very comfortable either. My mattress has shrunk along with my belly button!

So where does the chocolate cake come into this story? Well while we were on vacation last week - all I wanted all week was a nice big piece of chocolate cake. I knew we would be heading to VA to visit Benny, Robyn and Maddie and so I would bring some cake there. We head to the local Giant supermarket in VA towards the bakery. NO Bakery?! NO Cake?! All they had in the teeniest supermarket bakery of all time was some bread and lame ass pastries.

I couldn't believe it. Pregnancy hormones took over and my eyes got a little watery (although if you ask the Doc he would tell you I cried right there in the supermarket - not true). I didn't cry but I was very disappointed that there was no cake. The Doc, being the nice guy he is, made it his mission after seeing how upset I was, to find me some chocolate cake. So off to the other Giant supermarket in town and lo and behold - CHOCOLATE CAKE!!! He even relented and got me ice cream to go with the cake. I have to say that Benny was pretty happy about cake too!

Now to gush about the new baby!! As you can see from the picture on the right she is a doll! At two weeks old, however, all she does really is eat, sleep and poop! But it was so fun to hold her. As you can see in the picture to the right she loves to watch her Red Sox Wally Mobile. In fact we loved that mobile so much that we had to add it to our registry!

We had such a blast hanging out with the new mom and dad. Robyn, Maddie, Charlie and I went out for lunch on Friday to Five Guys and then took a walk into the park. Maddie was so good she slept the whole time we were out! I hope Baby David will be as good! Seeing her and holding her made the Doc and I more anxious to meet our little guy! August can't come soon enough now! Until next time!

Ahh, I remember when Brady liked to just watch his mobile go around too. Now of course, he makes it his personal mission every times he sees it to do everything he can to bring the mobile down, violently shaking it until it gives way. Even though he hasn't learned to crawl yet, you can just tell his already got plans of what he's going to do to what. :)

P.S. This story made the Hub crave some chocolate cake, which we just had to add on to our pizza delivery order last night.

Your words are powerful Princess!

In other news: his belly continues to never get big. How does he do it?!?!?
