Guess What the Easter Bunny Brought Me?

My family! My dad drove them up Friday night. Saturday we watched General Conference on the laptop. In between sessions we went to the park for a ward brunch and after Conference we had a small birthday party with another family for my little sister. She is thirteen! I can't believe it. Makes me feel old.

Sunday was more Conference and then Easter dinner--fish, since I never get to make it because Justin doesn't like it. During dinner we felt the 7.2 earthquake from Mexico. It was the rolling kind; it felt like we were rocking on a boat. My dad freaked out and Justin was scared because it was his first earthquake. I kept eating dinner and laughing at them. I did feel dizzy afterward, though. After dinner, Dad left for home.

During the week, my mom and sister helped me clean the house. It needed it badly: it hadn't been cleaned since before I was pregnant. Yeah, gross. But the odors (both from food and cleaning products) bothered me, so it only got worse. It didn't end up being as bad as I thought though. Plus, my mom works wonders!

We didn't go out much, as we did last year when they visited, since Justin had the car. We did go thrift-store shopping, of course, and I found a way cute pair of polka dot heels. We saw The Princess and the Frog at the dollar theater and went to the farmer's market down the street. And we used our table (the one Justin's grandparents gave us with the griddle in the middle) for the first time for a special dinner. Friday night my mom and sister left.

That whole week I enjoyed Mom's healthy, yummy cooking and slept greater than I ever have since I got pregnant. Justin and I are still enjoying leftovers and lots of produce. But ever since they left, I have been sleeping terribly like before. I miss my mommy!
