Week 25...

What a crazy few weeks we have had!

Just after our last post, we found out that Jonathan's wonderful Grampy Albert had passed away. We traveled to Nova Scotia for the services...although it was bittersweet and Grampy will be missed so much, we were happy to think of him at peace after a long illness, and it was wonderful to be able to see Jonathan's extended family, who are rarely all together (13 grandkids, 13 great-grandkids, and 2 more on the way - just on Jonathan's mom's side!).

It was also the only chance we will have to see his family while I am pregnant, so we managed to have some fun and catch up with one another.

Also, we got to catch up with Moe, Jonathan's family dog, who thoroughly enjoyed indulging in all my gluten-free groceries while we were away at church!

On our way home from Canada, we stopped at the hospital for our final childbirth class...went home and unpacked...then Jonathan repacked and hopped on a place the next morning for the South! He has just spent two weeks in New Orleans building a big ropes course for a school there. We are excited for a camping trip to our favorite park in New Hampshire over the upcoming long weekend. Look for more pics of that next week.

While Jonathan was gone, I got to spend some time with Rochelle and Catherine, and Barley, of course! Barley doesn't see me very often but it seems she knows something is different...she has never laid on my belly like this before!

Speaking of the belly, it sure is getting big fast! We can hardly believe baby boy will be here in 10-15 weeks or so. He is moving big time and sometimes you can even see my belly moving when he does. Daddy reads "Guess How Much I Love You" to him over the phone every night when he is away for work so the baby can hear his voice.

Hope everyone is enjoying the spring as much as we are!
