Reunions

A lot of fun events have taken place this past week... first off, Ani and I went down to Iowa over Labor Day weekend to celebrate Vanessa's bridal shower and bachelorette party (well, I left Ani with Grandma for that portion of the celebration!) and also to attend my mom's Harder family reunion in Wilton. It was great to "party" with all my girls again and also to see my family. Party is in quotation marks because I only had one drink at the beginning of the night when we were still at Nessa's house and drank water once we hit the bars. One of the downfalls of breastfeeding... :) But it was still a fun time!

Secondly, Ani is about ready to roll over on her own! She tries pretty hard and gets the bottom half of her body going, but can't quite follow with the top half yet. Oh, and she likes to drool.

Lastly, we had a reunion last night with all the families from our childbirth preparation class this spring. We grilled out near the bandshell at Lake Harriet. It was SO neat to meet everyone's babies and not see all of us women pregnant! We were lucky to have a very cool group of people in our class and I know we'll keep in touch. Someone had a wonderful idea of laying all the babies down on a blanket in birth order.
