Fancy Dinner

Last night Adam decided to spoil me and make a very fancy dinner. He got a duck from the local farmers market and spent the afternoon looking for the best recipe. I must admit, I was a bit skeptical, because he has cooked me wild duck several times, and although edible, it was nothing close to five star. This duck was fabulous and the meal ranked up there as one of the best I've ever eaten. Good job babe!

Also on the menu, fresh asparagus with romano cheese and quinoa with portabella mushrooms and cherry tomatoes. Delicious.

My addiction

Prior to getting pregnant, clothes shopping was my absolute weakness. When I first got pregnant, suddenly I wasn't interested in the cutest new pair of jeans or the great Frye boots that just came out. Adam celebrated, thinking perhaps that finally I had turned a new leaf and we would be able to put that extra cash to good use. Poor Adam—come to find out, I just switched obsessions. Now, I am constantly on the hunt for the coolest baby book, cutest little hat, and the most adorable outfit. Here are a few of my most recent impulse purchases—seriously, how could I say no? Etsy, you will be the death of me.

Baby Classes

We've recently started attending all of our baby classes at Carle Hospital. So far, Adam has taken the daddy class, we both took Care of a Newborn, we've started the Childbirth Preparation course, and just two nights ago, we took the Infant CPR course.

I had NO IDEA that giving a baby cpr could be so hard. I felt like I was going to break the little dolls chest and my fingers all at the same time. Needless to say, Adam did it effortlessly, so I guess he will be in charge of all emergencies with Miss Madison.

He was super annoyed that I was taking pictures, but he looked so cute practicing CPR that I just had to document it. :) He'll appreciate it one of these days.
