I want to pee before you poop

I apologize for not updating the blog sooner...work's been crazy busy and we're desperately trying to get the kitchen done before SIL's wedding but I do have some funny stories from the bachelorette party in Austin that I thought I'd share.
Both take place with my SIL and MIL on the way back from Austin and made me laugh so hard tears were freely flowing down my face. After we got up and ate some breakfast, we dropped off Vegas SIL and my precious Vegas Nephew at the Austin airport. As we were leaving, a cab pulled up almost next to the car and stopped. SIL was driving and laid on the horn for the cab to move but he only moved a fraction and the passengers started getting out. We were able to squeeze around the cab (after holding on the horn for another 30 seconds) but the passengers started yelling obscenities at us so the entire car (save the MIL) began yelling and gesturing right back. The funny part was when SIL pulled up next to the cab but stopped and started looking to her left like she was adjusting the seat or something. Much to my amusement, I realized that she was looking for the window button so she could roll down the window and yell at the cabbie without the window in the way. After 30-45 seconds, she found it and the cabbie started yelling at her (in all honesty, I couldn't tell what the hell he was saying with his accent) but all that SIL could manage was "You're an asshole" which amused me even more b/c it was such a buildup but a letdown in my mind for what I would have (and did say as we were pulling away). Then the cabbie spit at the car and his spit came about a fraction of an inch away from hitting my MIL in the face. Since she was in no way condoning this behavior, it made it even more funny that she came so close to getting spit on by some dumbass who can't drive.
The next funny story (and reason for the title) gave me the giggles for the next 2 days, especially when I was trying to fall asleep that night. We stopped at the Sonic in Waco to grab a bite and use the bathroom. Earlier the day (before the cabbie incident but at the airport) I mentioned that I needed to pee (thanks to Uno for finding a new hobby in kicking my bladder) and SIL said that she needed to poop. I quickly used the airport bathroom but SIL decided she could wait. By the time we got to Waco, both MIL and I needed to pee and SIL needed to take care of some business. We ordered our food but forgot to ask if they had a bathroom we could use so SIL pushed the button again to ask. They directed us to the potty but not even 2 seconds after they told us where it was, my MIL announced that she wanted to pee before SIL pooped. I have no idea if the Sonic person heard any of this but it sure made me laugh to think that the person delivering our food was wondering exactly who in the car needed to poop.
In other news, Uno had his/her photo shoot last Friday and weighs a whopping 1 lb 9 oz...for those of you keeping track, that's a gain of 1 lb 2 oz since the last visit. My mom was able to come to this appt and was amazed at what we could see with the sonogram. Uno is measuring around 25 weeks and I'm at 23 weeks, so he/she is a little on the big side. Husband and my mom have felt Uno kick/head but/punch and people have actually started noticing that I'm pregnant, not just gaining weight. Husband and I both have our guesses about what Uno is, especially after this last sonogram, but we've decided to keep this to ourselves.
