It's been a while

I have been very busy! Between Girl Scouts and the house, I have no real time. We took the girls to a Scientist for a Day event. What fun that was, seriously! We learned about oyster reefs and how they are building more to help the environment. We actually started our own starters. We also pulled up some old ones and had the girls pick out some sea creatures: grass shrimp, crab, sea squirts....even a fish! The girls also learned about water Ph and we measured the saltiness of the sea AND of the brackish water the ships were in. (They have a carrier, submarine, destroyer and a coast guard cutter) After our event, we had a picnic and toured the ship and the boats. After seven hours of fun, I was spent.

We also had a friend and his mom visit us for dinner from WA state. They had to eat and run because of their schedule but it was awesome to see them again! We ate at the Crab House featured on A&E that got "flipped". That was last night. This weekend I go camping............JUST ADULTS!! WOO HOO! I love to get away, even if it is just for a weekend. The following weekend, we have a G.S. event AND a party to go to. I can't wait for November to get here! We will get a break from events and take a breather. I will hopefully be able to start feeling a little from my Mcnugget by then.

ANYWAY....I will begin walking again. I am feeling a bit more energized. I am so thankful that I didn't get morning sickness this time. I was able to keep up with things minus keeping my house clean. I did get it clean in time for my friend and his mom to come visit us at least. I am going to start up a project list now that I am getting things back to normal. I need to get some painting done and things of that nature before I get too big to get up on a ladder. I have until about January before I start to really show. We will see how that all goes.

Well, until I have more time...... ciao
