Hi there little guy! It is Monday night and Mommy is very tired, but I wanted to take a quick minute to write and let you know that I love you. We had a very busy weekend but you reaching the 31 week mark did not go unnoticed. I am so happy that we have made it this far and hope that the next 9 weeks run smoothly and without incident.
We had a wonderful weekend visiting Grandma Cindy and Grandpa Rand for Tenley's Walter/Miller Family Birthday Party. We got to Grandma and Grandpa's Thursday afternoon and had a nice evening eating dinner and relaxing. Friday was so much fun- we got to spend some time with Aunt Lou and Uncle Bernard. Mommy was supposed to get up and frost Tenley's birthday cookies, but I realized that I had forgotten my black food coloring (which is essential when making Minnie Mouse cookies) and had to go to Sturgis. I called Aunt Lou to see if she and Uncle Bernard wanted to go have lunch with us and they said yes! We ran to Wal-Mart quick and then went to McDonald's where your sister had a Happy Meal and played in the play place. It was a lot of fun and Tenley fell asleep before we even left the parking lot. When we got back to Grandma and Grandpa's, Tenley slept and I finished her cookies. By then it was time for Grandma and Grandpa to get home from work and we went shopping and to dinner.
Saturday was a day of preparation for the big party. Grandma, Tenley, and I (and you!) went to Shipshewana to pick up the burgers for the party and then went to The Mercantile to have JoJo's pretzels and Tenley rode the carousel. I can't wait until you are big enough to do this, too. Your sister LOVED it and here are some pictures from the fun afternoon:
Once we returned home we spent some time cleaning and decorating for the party. Once things were under control, we went to eat pizza with Grandma Cindy, Grandpa Rand, Great Grandma and Great Grandpa Walter. It was nice spending time with them and it was a great evening.
Sunday was Tenley's big party and it was fantastic. So many people came to help celebrate and she had a blast. Here are a few pictures from the afternoon:

Well baby, it's time for Mommy to get your sister to sleep. I love you so much and have really been enjoying each kick and roll I feel. You have been especially active today and I wish you would be this way every day. You've been a little calm for my liking lately, but maybe that's because I've been so busy and active. Our upcoming week is a little more low key, just preparations for Tenley's birthday on Sunday. I love you so much- sleep tight!
