What We've Been Up To

Riding the turtle

All better after cake!

Sara and me

With my two girls!

It seems the time that lapses between blog posts is getting longer and longer. We already have this upcoming weekend booked and I am just now getting around to blogging about last weekend's adventures. Last weekend was full of rain! We can not really complain because we have not had any measurable rain in quite some time. It just so happened it all came at one time though.

Saturday morning we went to a birthday party for my boss' daughter at Monkey Joe's. This was our first experience with the place. We thought Luke would love it, but he did not want to take his shoes off (a requirement to play on the bouncy toys) or be put down. We carried him around for about an hour to all the different riding toys. He would get on and immediately get off. Luckily we never put any money in them. Once we had the actually party, aka. food, Luke was energized. He ate pizza, drank juice and ate cake. Two of those things he rarely gets so he knew he was getting a treat He was all systems go after that. He wanted to play on everything and started crying when we made him leave. All in all, I don't think we will be rushing to go back to Monkey Joe's anytime soon.

Saturday afternoon I went to a baby shower for one of my best friend's sisters. Virginia and I went and helped Laura get ready for the shower the night before. We had a great time seeing how everything turned out. Sara is having a little boy in May. Laura and her other sister, Martha and I are all due on the same day - August 27th. Laura and I are having girls and Martha is having a boy. We know that more than likely none of us will deliver on the same day it is still cool to share the same due date.

Paul and I went for another ultrasound on Tuesday and Baby Girl Troutt is perfect! They were able to "see" everything they needed which was a relief! The doctor talked to us about the probability that baby girl could come early like Luke did. Since I really never had any signs of labor with him she is going to keep a very close eye on me. It is hard to believe how quickly this pregnancy is going!

We had the same "not taking my shoes off" experience with Caleb recently at his friend Ethan's birthday party at Pump It Up. You have to take your shoes off there to play on the inflatable slides and stuff, which he just would not do. So, he spent most of the party running around having a blast throwing balls. Then, the last 30 minutes of the party he just up and took his shoes off and LOVED sliding on the slides and climbing up on the stuff. Ever since then he has been asking us to take him back to Pump It Up! Kids do the craziest things! Speaking of crazy - that is so cool that you and Laura have the same due date- and August is not too far away! You are looking great by the way! Do you need any summer maternity stuff? I have a bathing suit and some summery stuff if you need to borrow anything! Just let me know.
