something in the water

i love levi. he is the most amazing, wonderful, perfect little man. i wouldnt change anything in the world about him. BUT, he is a handful sometimes! how do people have 2 babies so close together?
2 girls from my birthing class are due with baby number 2 within the next 3 weeks. they have babies exactly the same age as levi and now they'll have infants too! after dealing with levi's lunchtime tantrum today at bahama breeze (you can read about it on my personal blog), and it taking both me and jeff to control him, i can not imagine how we would have handled 2 babies at the same time! (let alone twins, thats another story all together! i give those parents a TON of credit!)....
it seems everyone is pregnant now. seriously. is there something in the water? let me count......josie, jessica, erin, courtney- all due with baby #1 within the next couple months. Amanda, Theresa, Randi, Erin (a different one), Brooke- all due with baby #2 within the next few months. I'm probably missing a few.....even so, doesnt that seem like a lot? i guess i'll just have to do a lot of baby shopping.
im taking one of my friends out for brunch tomorrow instead of throwing her a baby shower. timing and location just did not work out for the shower, but this is a good substitute. cheesecake factory sunday morning has the best specials!!!!! i bought her all this cute baby stuff. the clothes are so little and adorable! i cant believe levi was that little once.....he is such a big boy now! 18 month clothes are definitely not as cute as 0-3....i do have to say though, as i was searching for unisex clothes (she is not finding out the sex), the selection is limited! i did not do any baby shopping before levi was born, and my friends mentioned MORE than once that it was not easy finding things for boy/girl.....yellow, green, red i guess is all there is. but i found some cute things....
