staycation 2009

What do you do when your husband has the week off (starts work Monday) and you are 38 weeks pregnant so you can't travel? Staycation!!
This past week we had a great time enjoying each other and the DFW area!
Monday:
cold front=outdoor, non-swimming activity possible!
We took a trip to the Ft. Worth Zoo. I forgot what a wonderful zoo it is...so shaded and so many great animals. Here are the pics:
two cool cats
mommy and her little monkeys

highlight of the zoo...feeding the birds
silly daddy
pure joy at spotting the candy shoppe

pure joy at spotting the train
so happy together
Tuesday:
movie time! Regal cinema has free family movies on Tuesdays and Wednesdays at 10 am. They offer a G and a PG option. we went last week and the boys did great so we did it again this week.
Wednesday:
boys in school means date for mommy and daddy! We went to my doctor's appointment and then went to a nice lunch at Stephen Pyles...this dessert (heaven and hell cake) was amazing!! devils food cake, angels food cake, peanut butter mousse, thick chocolate icing and raspberry ganache! yum-o!
Thursday:
100+ degrees means time for water activities!
We went up to Flower mound and took my teenage niece and nephew to their local recreation cener water park...super fun.
then when brought them home with us (just in case i had to go into the hospital that night...they could stay with the boys).

gotta love wild about harrys...wow i'm so gigantic i make the human-sized hot dog look small.

Friday:

date with quade day!

Bruce took quade out for donuts in the morning. Then quade and i went on an all morning date...hair cut, back to school shoe and clothes shopping (a little early but will be a lot harder for me to do in late august), lunch and birthday present shopping. we had a great time!

My mom got in town friday night. I had contractions all night and then went into the hospital Saturday morning...but it was a false alarm.

So we're still waiting...

Fun stuff! what you had contractions? did this happen with the other two? We need to talk before number 3 comes along, because I know it will be a long time until we talk after:)
