Last Saturday, Sam and Sofia organized a surprise baby shower for Lauren. Everyone had a wonderful time! Great food, fun games, fellowship and gifts!
Surprise! Hahaha!
The soon-to-be parents of Cooper!
Of course, Sable was as cute as ever, crawling around on the floor with a balloon tied to her waist, hahaha!
Speaking of balloons, I learned a very important lesson. Blowing up balloons has potential side effects. I arrived at the party early to help decorate, and after blowing up about 3 balloons, I was out of breath and felt like all my energy had been drained from my body. Then about 15 minutes later, I felt my eyes stinging like crazy, but I just ignored it and thought perhaps something got in my eyes. Another 15 minutes later, my sister looked at me and goes, 'Why are your eyes SO red?!' I ran to the bathroom, and scared myself, I looked REALLY scary, I don't know why other people failed to tell me this when I was talking to them! But what was strange was that only the bottom half of my eyes were red, and the top half was fine. So I ended up throwing out my contacts and sitting in the bathroom for 20 minutes, praying and hoping the redness would go away, so I can go back to the party without scaring anyone. Later at the party, after talking to a few people, it became evident that my eyes were red from blowing up balloons!! How crazy is that? Good thing I only did 3 balloons, if I had done 6, my entire eyes would have been red LOL!
After the baby shower, we went to Citylight's soccer game, we were SO close! It was really fun to watch and cheer on our team! Then a bunch of us went to Armondo's in Jackson Heights for dinner, after Heather and I talked about going for over a year! What a NICE restaurant, the decor was sophisticated and yet casual (some of us were wearing soccer clothes and they still treated us with respect, haha), and the food was delicious (the tiramisu was especially wonderful)! After dinner, I went to Pascual and Heather's to sleep over. And that was the night I fell in love with Guitar Hero. It's a good thing I don't own it, otherwise, I would be practicing all day and all night, especially now that I'm unemployed, haha! It really is a fun game, once you get into it.
The next day was a day of eating out, after church we went to Congee Village, so cheap and so yummy. A few hours later, we met up for Pascual's birthday dinner at a Japanese restaurant in Queens, where the boys raved about how great the bathroom was, and the girls thought it was just average, haha! I guess boys and girls have different bathroom standards.
