yesterday my friends courtney and melissa threw me a really lovely baby shower. :)
melissa, who has known me 12 years (!) put together a fun little trivia game about me & steve. it was fun to see who knew what about us. (if anyone is interested in getting a copy of the quiz, let me know!)
one of the questions was about the name of the first home we bought, in michigan. most of the people out here had no idea that we'd owned a home and christened it with a name. whether you already know the name, or didn't know about this, here's the article that gave us the idea for our home's name, even though our house didn't have a rooftop trampoline.

another fun thing that happened yesterday: we finally had the opportunity to test out the carseat that we're getting in our convertible. we were very pleased to find out that it was easy enough to get it into the car and it fits just fine! we had been worried that we'd need to get rid of the convertible and buy a new car. i'm so relieved we don't have to add that to our "to do before the baby arrives" list!
