The R & S Mess: Just an update!

Since the last post, Ryan and I had a wonderful trip back home! We were unable to see some people we wanted and do something we wanted to do because of time constraints, but we were able to visit with family and enjoy time before Little Bit arrives! Our first big event was the Baby Shower that went off without a hitch! Thank you again for everyone who came, it was so nice to visit with LOTS of family and friends! We all now know Little Bit is well loved! :) The rest of the trip was spent driving to see friends in Broomfield, dinners out with family and tons of wonderful conversations!

Since Ryan's car was still in Colorado (because I was using it when I was still living there) we had long drive back to South Carolina! We LOADED the car the night before and left bright and early at 5am on Thursday! My sister Tracy hitched a ride with us to St. Louis where we stayed at her place to enjoy some more sightseeing! The first day was long, but it was nice to enjoy more time with my sister and made the trip seem shorter. We decided to make it to St. Louis, stay the night and sightsee the next day; it makes the trip longer, but it helps break up the driving time! In St. Louis there is a museum which is like an adult McDonald's play-place made with recycled items that Ryan was dying to go to! We had a blast crawling around the museum and sliding down slides. Of course I wasn't able to get into the tight spaces he was able to go into, we both had tons of fun! We also went to the Science Center and enjoyed meals at some local breweries.

The next day we left St. Louis at about 5am so we were able to make it home at a decent hour. Again another uneventful trip with many stops for me to get out and move! Like I always say... if your marriage can make it through a two day road trip, it can make it through anything! :) Once we got home we headed over to relieve our friends of the Kingster! He was so excited to see us, but very sad to leave his friend Lucy! He thoroughly enjoyed his stay at the McGoldrick's house! :)

After our trip, nothing new has happened. We are just continuing to get ready for Little Bit to arrive! We had lots of things to go through and organize after the shower, so that is where I have been spending most of my time! Ryan and I are just about done with the room... I know it has been a long process! :) But it will be worth it!

Here are some pictures of our trip! :)
