Week 36

Cupcakes....Mmmmmm.

See the sad cat? Hyde has either been laying on this side of the buffet or the other side of it. He's totally despondant, lethargic and unenergetic right now and we think he's sick. What do we do? I'm not a fan of expensive vet bills either.


This is me at 36 weeks. Only 4 (give or take) to go.


We spent a few minutes at Navarre Beach on Sunday afternoon, so that's what's with the beach scenes.



October 26 - Montgomery, AL

We're learning that some of our friends can be very spontaneous! Which is a very, very, very good thing for often homesick Manitobans... About a week before the 26th, Loretta emailed to see if we could meet up, since her and Henry were going to be in "the area" - which basically meant the southeast portion of the States. Since their flight back to Winnipeg was out of Atlanta, we met halfway between Atlanta and Pensacola in Montgomery, Alabama to spend the day with them.

The problem was, what the heck do you do in Montgomery? Even people we asked who lived there or knew people who lived there didn't have any suggestions, so thanks to Google, we found a few things. To eat, we had lunch at Moe's Southwest Grill and supper at The Bonefish Grill (both excellent chain restaurants if you feel you need to play it safe). And between food, we spent three hours walking around Fort Tulouse/Fort Jackson, which is a historic site just north of Montgomery...beautiful. The day was beautiful, the trees were beautiful, the company was great and we even got to see an armadillo scurry across our path. Cory scurried after it, but that didn't amount to much.

Us.

Bad hair day.

October 20 - Baby Shower

My first ever baby shower... For starters, the weather was fantastic for a baby shower on the beach. It has literally been raining everyday for a week and a half, but the Saturday of the shower not a cloud was in the sky. And now it's raining again. Kate, Ginger and Teel planned such a fun shower. Lots of yummy food, great turn-out, fun games... Who knew an opossum was only pregnant 8 days? Not me obviously, since my answer for the gestation period of humans was 365 days!


From L-R...Teel, Whitney, Kate, Ginger and in front are Jill and her son Tegan.


I think the award for Coolest Gift Bag goes to Jill (the black & white baby's bum).


Here's my party girl Teel.


...and finally, one attempt at Pin the Diaper on the Baby.

Warm Fuzzies

Who doesn't love a big cuddly cat?

32 Weeks

My "blossoming" figure, I guess you could say... I have two months of enlargement to go before I pop!
