what a weekend...

since last week on tuesday, we have had a crazy week. we've been running around like crazy getting everything ready for erin and dan's wedding. no one in the history of time has invested more of themselves into planning a wedding, than erin. no stone was left unturned. erin was a gorgeous bride and dan was so handsome and was so happy. the wedding was at beulah church in churchill and the reception was at PNC park. it was perfect. we had a great time and max was awake until 130 in the morning. (we had some last minute pictures on the field at midnight!!) he didn't throw one fit or shed one tear...he was great. he did knock out the second his carseat was buckled...when chris picked him up he was like a ragdoll. 

saturday morning we got up early, thanks max! and went to chris' parent's house for brunch. then max and i had to crash for a few hours and brave chris went golfing. they played 19 holes and didn't get home until almost 9 that night. we had a great time with the bindewalds, carolynn, callahan, and my siblings with kids. we played at the park and then went to dave and erin's for dessert. if we hadn't napped for 3 hours, i doubt that night would have been much fun for us....

sunday we had church after our huge, hostile congregational meeting last week. wow. i have never been a part of something that tense. but...it's over now and one week later we can discuss it with less emotion...that's a different story for a less public time...

we met up with denise, eric and their three boys again. we went to the science center and out to dinner with my in-laws. so much fun. 

the most fun news was i got lots of girl clothes yesterday. denise surprised me with a bag of girl clothes from children's place (all summer stuff for next year--she never gets to shop for girls so i'll reap the benefits of that :) and francine, chris' mom, loves to shop and loves girls so we got a full gap bag for the baby. it was really fun to see what our sweet little girl will be wearing next swimming season....

yes, i'm awake at 630 am. who knows why??? this pregnancy has been so different than max's pregnancy. nothing horrible but sooo different. one similarity would be nice---if the steeler's could go to the superbowl right after her birth....that sounds good.....

i'll post some wedding pictures and i have some MAJOR stories about what happened before the wedding...it was an interesting time getting ready that morning....it's never easy to be pregnant during these times....but it really was one of my most favorite days ever with chris' family....
