On Baby A's birthday, the c-section surgery went as planned. I walked into the OR around 9:30am and was pushed out around 2 hours later. W was instructed to wait outside while the team was getting me prepared for anesthesia. He then got invited to come in and sat next to me while the team worked on getting Baby A out of me 😂. W was a good DJ and Baby A was born while Taylor Swift's Shake It Off was being played. So...did I feel any pain during this life-changing surgery? No, I didn't. I had a spinal block.

Game night's back! It's been morrrrrrre than a year since I last had a game night with people in-person! Due to COVID, we played board games and video games with friends online.

It was a small group gathering and everyone had already been fully vaccinated. It was very nice to be able to have a social gathering in-person. We enjoyed the evening with a long round of Transforming Mars!
Although there was no main dish, I still got my plate full, twice that night! The salads were very refreshing!
The hosting couple has two lovely kitties. Queenie and Oscar. Oscar seemed more shy and Queenie showed up next to the guests more often than Oscar did. I enjoyed petting Queenie and I think she did too 😺
