Baby shower

We're coming upon the finish line.  The doctor says Xander is measuring large, which we had suspected for awhile.  He is measuring so large, in fact, that the ultrasound shows him two weeks ahead of schedule.    He's welcome to come a little early.  This is not a comfortable trimester, though I'm doing very well compared to other hugely pregnant ladies I know.

In other news, I signed a renewal agreement this week..  I promised to stay for another 24 months, though that's not really the plan.  We'll see.  We are now running around base trying to renew our housing, visas, drivers licenses, ID cards, ration cards, car registration, and whatever else I discover will expire on November 11.

I had a baby shower on Saturday, which was fun.  The nice women who threw the party had clearly done some baby showers before.  Just check out the decorations in the picture.

The Hilltop club is not conducive to pictures.  This is the best one I got of the guests.

Me cutting the cake.  Yes, I made Bobby come.  His coworkers made up about half of the guests, it was only fair.

Cool cake, huh?

Me with a big bathtub full of presents

Baby clothes hanging from the ceiling

Me from the side after the party is over.  Ridiculous, right?
