This month was challanging but fun. We found out we would be having a D&C and that was really hard to go through but we had a lot of support from family and friends. Suzie (Micah's Mom) hopped on a plane the day after we found out and came to stay with us. I was feeling expectionally well so we got out of the house and drove up to Baltimore to show her around.
A couple of days later my parents flew up to join the party! We took it easy for a while and after a few days we went to Washington DC to show them around. My parents had never been this far from home.
It was my Mom's and Suzie's Birthday in September so we went out to dinner at Macaroni Grill. Micah and Suzie had fun playing the states game.
My Dad wrote this cute note for my Mom on our table.
A few weeks later was Meghann and Casey's Baby Shower. She's been a family friend since before I was born! I made her a diaper cake and we had a great time at the shower reconnecting with one of my first friends from childhood-Raine. Micah and Raine plotted against a Highly Competitive Hispanic Woman to win the clothes line pin game. We won a chili plant. (see group picture of girls below for a glimpse of the prize) They were hoping it was an iPod. The lady that lost was really mad! She left right after Micah stole the glory from her. I felt a little bad. Micah and Raine did not!
That following week we went White Water Rafting in West Virginia at the Upper Gauley. These rapids are class 5 and 6...top 10 in the country! In our group was:
Alfonso, Jack, Raine, Chelsea, Jaime Six, Jaime's son, and Brooks
Alfonso made the best expressions the whole trip! He is sitting in the back right side of the boat.
Our river guide was from Northern California and was an Emo version of Bear Grills. He made it really fun and so did the rest of the people in our boat. Since our orginial group was split up into two boats we rode with 4 strangers-they were total adrenaline junkies (skydivers) so we did some pretty crazy turns and stops like the one below!

I'm so sorry about the D&C. But look at all the amazing things you put on this post! Great diaper cake! White water rafting! So fun! Jake and I used to do that, and someday, we will again.
Good times! I love seeing and hearing about all your adventures.
