Busy July!

Sorry for the delay in posting! It's been a busy month. On the fourth we celebrated with Goody and Poppy with fireworks and yummy food! We attempted to have a party on the 5th, however, rain put a damper on that but did have a few friends over anyway.

Then we prepared for our trip. We were gone Saturday the 12th through Sunday the 20th. We decided to drive and make a fun roadtrip out of it. Surprisingly, Annabelle did really well and all we had to do was reach behind and give her ducks, bunnies or milk or anything else she dropped over and over and over again. We arrived safely in Maine on Sunday afternoon. We went out to eat with Goody and Poppy where Paul enjoyed his first lobster of the trip. On Monday, Jack and Christina and Betty her puppy Boo Boo arrived. We spent the week toodling around the area and even took in a house tour in lovely Camden. We did some kayaking on Tuesday which was interesting being 7 months pregnant. Paul played a lot of golf with Poppy too. The trip also included some lighthouse sightseeing and lots of seafood eating by everyone except for Celeste. Next year, she vows to try lobster! On Saturday we headed home and stopped in New Haven, CT for the night where we walked around the Yale Campus.

Paul had a golf weekend this weekend and Celeste is going on a moms getaway weekend next weekend. After that, we are on the homestretch for preparing for the new arrival! Yes, we have a name but we aren't telling!

Here are some pictures:
