Thursday

Yesterday was PACKED with things from beginning to end. I scheduled a haircut for 11AM, hoping that it would get canceled because I hoped to go into labor. Well, it didn't. Which was actually good...because I really wanted to get it cut before I had a newborn! Grandma Patti met us there to watch Jed, and then we were right across the street from Long John Silver's, so we headed over there to meet Grandpa Dennis for lunch.

I've been wanting to get my ring cleaned for months, so we went over to Regency to do that because I also knew that I wouldn't be up for bringing a newborn and 3 yr old to Borsheims any time soon. We walked around to all of the stores and Jed especially loved the waterfall!!

Learning Express

 We ran into my friend Kerri while we were there which was a fun surprise! Then we had shopped around so long that Patti suggested we stopped for a cookie break at Paradise Bakery. Who am I to argue?? Then back to the waterfall for awhile before we went home.

Anthropologie

Then we walked around Shadow Lake again last night after a trip to the Verizon store and Freddy's. We went to the Sprayground area and assumed that it would be off at 8:45PM. Well, Jed stepped on sensor and it came on. He got a sprayed a little, and then a little more. And then he was just fully soaked (in regular clothes) and having the time of his life!

He sat by the fire to warm up.

He was so wet that we stripped him down and just put him in DJ's flannel and drove home like that!

 We had such a good day and night and I was absolutely SURE that I was going to go into labor last night from all of that walking. Nope. But we made some good memories!

Field Trips

In my 39th week of pregnancy, we tried to do fun things every day. 

On Monday, we went with Grandma Patti to her school to participate in their summer program.  We made crafts at the library, got a free book, ate lunch there, and played on the playground. 

On Tuesday we met Nash and baby Liv at the Splash Park across the street. 

On Wednesday, our library had a Wildlife Encounters show where a guy brought in some animals to show the kids. 

And we also visited a cool new place in Omaha on Thursday called Kaneko PLAY. This exhibit is up through August and it's completely free. The place is filled with cool toys to build with and to create things. Jed and I got there at noon and stayed until 5! It was awesome!

And tonight we're going to Springfield Days to watch Big Hero Six outside! Hopefully we don't get rained out!
