Sledding

Well, I tried to take Catherine sledding earlier this week. I'm not sure why I thought this was a good idea at 37 weeks pregnant. I mean I have a difficult enough time getting up from the floor let alone trying to control a sled and get both of us up off the ground. Jim tried again with her this weekend, but she just didn't care for it. She kept getting upset that there was snow on her boots and gloves.

Busy Weekend

The weekend went by way too quickly, but it was a lot of fun.

The weekend marked the first time using the potty for its intended purpose. -- She's been wanting to dress herself lately, so this is one of the results.

Saturday started swim "lessons" at our high school pool. The school is new and huge. -- And when did every school start coming with a pool?

Sunday was a bridal shower for my sister Catherine's friend Christina.

I'm not sure Mom was able to enjoy much of her own lunch.

Less than a month to go

Well, we're in the home stretch with less than a month to go before the new baby is born. Or, at least until the due date of the new baby, who knows when he/she will be born. We think we're set on names, but there are still some discussions.

My dad converted their old photos and slides to a DVD. They're pretty good, here are a couple of favorites.

The von Trapp's had nothing on this group.
