Weekend Fun

We had a fun weekend! We thought we wouldn't get to go out on any more dates, but because nothing was happening with Sam and Mom was here to be with the other kids, Jed and I went "out". So, yeah, it wasn't a movie or a dinner but I did get Chicken McNuggets and delicious Strawberry Shortcake Sundae out of the deal!

We had to drop Michael off at a birthday party, which happened to be held at a state park that has a dairy farm on the premises. So after he was settled Jed walked me up to the dairy's ice-cream shop and we shared a big, goopy strawberry sundae over delicious shortcake biscuits. The walk, although short, was quite eventful. First we found the world's smallest frog! :D He was smaller than my thumbnail. Jed caught it and gave it to me so he could get the camera:




We also found some lovely vines that intertwined to form a heart. We thought it was so neat that it would do that naturally! I must have taken 10 pictures from 10 angles but looks like the first one was the best. Then, while we're walking along, some huge bug (probably a dragonfly, but I never saw it properly) flew down my shirt! If you've never seen a woman that's 9 months pregnant screaming, squealing, laughing and flapping and jumping around, trying to get a large winged bug unstuck from her cleavage, you've missed out on pure comedy. Jed was practically crying from laughter. Anyway, fun times. Top that off with a trip to the grocery store and the used bookstore, and I thought we were going to need to head to Labor and Delivery Saturday night. But alas, no baby.

So we're still pregnant, which is a miracle for us, but has also become rather tedious. ;) I must have complained a lot though because my dear evil twin Farlander drew me this comic:


So we'll let Sam decide when he comes out. Up to a point anyway...if we go past our due date I'll be demanding Pitocin. ;) I was excited to go full term but there's no way I'm enduring overdue!
