On Friday June, 27 Andrea turned 29!!!! We both had the day off and made good use of it. We slept in until 10:00 AM!
We started the day by putting the crib together. It was very fun and having baby furniture makes it that much more real. The nursery is coming together nicely.
Crib assemblage.
After we got the crib together we went to lunch at Tupelo's in downtown Hillsborough. Andrea has been asking to go there for a while and then when we got there is was not the place she thought it was :-) We enjoyed lunch and she opened some of her presents there. I was able to intercept the mail and surprised her with cards and a gift that were sent to her... she loved it, but I hope she does not return the favor (I am not as patient with surprises).
Shock and awe at the cards and gifts!
From lunch I took her to get a pedicure. I had never been in a nail salon before and it was as stereotypical as expected. It was run by one asian family, the girls did the work and gossiped (about what who knows) in some asian language the whole time, a husband sat up front playing on a computer and looking bored and the older woman who did Andrea's nails never spoke English she just smiled and motioned where to sit and when to stand. As we left the nail salon Andrea promptly ruined the pedicure by kicking the car door while sitting down. We returned and they graciously repaired the polish!
We then returned home and Andrea's mom was actually just arriving at our house. She was dropping off flowers and love. While she was there I pulled out the ice cream cake and we sang a quick duet!
The three candles mean nothing they
are just there, she turned 29!
We ended the day at a baby shower! It was a ton of fun and our friends are very generous!
Tiny booties and mittens...

You seemed to leave out whether or not you got a pedicure/manicure. So did you? If so, I'll get with Walter and work on a nickname.
No, I opted out of the pedicure, thought I did set next to her in one of the massage chairs.
It looks like you did a great job putting the crib together! I can hardly wait to see it.
cute pics! i can't wait to see how the nursery is coming together! it looks like you had a great birthday! i am sad i couldn't be a part of it. also, did you get that shirt from old navy? i have it but in gray!! hehe!
I see the curtains! They look very professional ! I am really glad they are so even. I was concerned about that. Hope the other pair look that good.
Love, Mom
