Brady Robert arrived at 7:59am.  He weighs exactly 9lbs, much less than they predicted. 

He is perfectly perfect in every way!

Last Hurrah

Last weekend, the husband and I took a quick one night trip to Mohegan Sun.  We figured it was the last time for a very long that we will be able to have a night alone in a hotel.   The casino/hotel is less than 2 hours from home, so I was comfortable that I could get back home and to my hospital if I went into labor. 

Through my husband's work, we were able to get a hotel room for $79.  Which is pretty awesome because on the weekends the rooms typically cost close to $400.  While the rooms were very nice, there was no way I would ever spend full price on the room. 



This is going to sound so crazy, but I do have one complaint about the room, the kind of complaint only a 38 week pregnant woman could have....the bed was way to soft and cushy.  My husband absolutely loved it, but I sunk right in like dead weight.  It was almost impossible to roll over during the night and it took all of my might to pull myself out of bed to use the bathroom.  Crazy, I never thought I would have a complaint like that. 

Mohegan Sun is really nice, and really really big.  I am not too big on the casino, I played a couple slot machines, but the place is really smoky.  But we were able to just walk around, have a nice dinner and enjoy ourselves. 

All in all, I am really glad we made the trip.  It was a good chance to relax and enjoy some time just the two of us, before our whole world is rocked.
