Baby Shower

Barbara, Jennifer, Richelle, Janet & Joan from church organized a baby shower for me. It was a sweet and fun party. I enjoyed unwrapping presents and finding cute girly goods for the baby.






A summary of what the baby received.


Cydne even dressed up for me.

When I got home, David and his friends were making Julia's Beef Bourguignon! That even made my day special.

Four more weeks to go. All my body parts are aching as if an old haunted house, slowly cracking down. But looking at the gifts and cute clothes remind me of exciting moments to come. Till then, our plan is to peacefully calmly wait and avoid any pressures for her to pop out before my Family Medical Leave applies on the 22nd of April.

Grandma Myrl

Today, we gathered at grandma Tueller's for dinner. There, I met grandma Myrl for the first time. She was not only a sweet lady but also full of pep, which I assumed that was a secret of her happy long life. I love the picture of those two. What a beautiful sisters.

After the meal, we played the thimble game. Aunt Anna picked a category of "what David and Ayae should consider for the baby's name." People came up with various names like Grace, Isabelle (That's correct, Uncle Jim's daughters' names were popular), Kenna, etc. but what Aunt Anna (and mom who guessed and got splashed) were thinking was "Marie." Every generation in Tueller family has "Marie" somewhere. That was actually a good point. So definitely "Marie" is in a suggestion pool; however, more likely we will use it for the second girl since David wants a Japanese name.


Made it to 34 weeks! Six more weeks to go.

Anniversary celebration for Matt and DeNeece.

Since we didn't have February 29th and mom had to go to ER last night for fainting and hurting her hand/list, we celebrated their anniversary today, March 1st. It marked 31 years of their marriage. That made me wonder which anniversary David and I will remember and talk about in 30 years. Hopefully, we will be graduating for raising our children and start enjoying our own company again by then...
Anyway, thank you very much, Matt, for letting us go out for the special occasion. We wished you were there with us. David said "I wanna know more about my dad!" We miss you.
