The Heard Life: Catching up

Catching up

First of all, I have to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my wonderful husband! Richard is the big 29 today!
Get ready, this is going to be one LONG post. We have been to New York, Alabama, and Mississippi over the past week and a half.
New York-
We left a week ago Friday and stayed at the Intercontinental Hotel for 3 nights. It was such a nice room with a great view!

We got Panda for our little girl from F.A.O. Schwarz

We saw these two shows

and they were great! We had purchased the Wicked tickets ahead of time, but went to the ticket office on Sunday morning to get discounted tickets to Memphis. We were waiting in the very long line trying to decide if it was going to be worth waiting at least another hour when we found out that there is a perk to being pregnant in New York!

They moved us to the very front so we could be the first in line when the windows opened.

Our baby girl was so active during the shows...maybe she will be musical?!

We also went to the top of the Empire State Building, Times Square, and on a boat tour to the Statue of Liberty.

We had a great time in New York, our last trip before Baby Heard arrives.

We also went back to see family and friends in Alabama and Mississippi. We went to the first MSU football game of the season...and they won!

Aaron and Richard

We got to sit in Club Level seats and it was great! I would love to have these seats one day.

We had planned a dove hunt on Sunday, but first we got suprised with a baby shower. I guess I was dressed appropriate for the occasion.

We got such cute baby clothes, blankets, and gear. Thank you to all who were involved!

And then the hunt began. This was also the first time I have shot a shotgun, and let me tell you that it kinda hurts when it kicks back. I was able to get my first dove though!
