Here comes summer
Just 2 1/2 days of school left for Caroline. Today she is going to the Carousel for a class trip and she is pretty pumped about that. The Carousel closes as soon as school starts and doesn't open again until school is out, so it has been a long time since she has ridden and she is pretty excited. She is also excited for school to be out. THat will last about 2 days. I am so boring because I can't go anywhere or do anything. Justin takes them places when he can, but he is so busy... I am worried about the next 4 weeks for the kids. They are going to go crazy, and take me with them! Hilton has a class trip on Friday. They are going to Bear World! It is a place right off HWY 20 that "Brings Yellowstone to you!" I have heard it is kind of lame, but there are animals everywhere and supposed to be bears! I know he will get a kick out of that. Today or tomorrow I have to get a birthday gift for Justin, no clue what to get. His b-day is tomorrow! And I have to get gifts for Caroline's teachers... This is too much. Being a parent is hard work... and I don't even do anything!!! I have been feeling better lately. I think the prospect of actually having this baby is great. I wish I had set a date sooner! I do know that she is going to be out of my body in just a matter of weeks, and that is a very good feeling. She is still very active, and she is growing but not astronomically so. I am sure we will have another petite baby. I have book group tonight, so I will get to see my friends. THey have been great about calling me and bringing food and stuff. But I still don't see them as often as I would like. Unfortunately, they have lives, that do not revolve around me... I hope I can make it tonight. The evening is when i have usually had it and when the contractions start and I have to get right in bed and stay there. And book group doesn't start until 8pm. But 2pm I have to call it a day. But I will do my best to really take it easy today so I can make it. I will definitely not be at the next one!
I am really excited for summer. I would be more excited if I could go to the lake and the water park and do all kinds of summery things. But for now, I just have to be the living microwave for the child in my tummy. I am grateful for this blessing, but I am very grateful that this will be the last one for me!

Keep on hanging in there! You can do it! (both the hanging in there & adjusting to a baby, again) It was a big shocker when Gracie came; but by the time you get through this pregnancy, I'm sure you will just be thrilled to have that part over. It will make the rest easier, I think.
Brigitta was out of school last week. She was so excited, and the next day she informed me that being out of school was boring. I have now turned into my mother and give her a job every time she says, "I'm bored." It's great! This may be your chance to get some more work done than Justin has time to do. :o)
Good luck! When Nicole told me you were planning on coming to the family reunion, I thought you were crazy. I am excited to see you, and your family. It's been a long time....
