*SIGH* ... Tonight at the dinner table, I told Dave that I feel ginormous. He said to Molly, "Mommy doesn't look ginormous does she?" My sweet little girl said, "NO! She looks HUMUNGOUS!" Thanks, everybody.
Time is marching on this fall. We're getting closer to a new baby and crossing some big papers and conferences off our "To Do" list. This weekend, we took a nice little, slightly unexpected, trip up to Grand Rapids. Dave was presenting and attending a Great Lakes History Conference and Molly and I were along for the ride! I actually was supposed to have a class out at a National Prairie, which would have majorly complicated our weekend plans, but thanks to our government's shutdown, I got to enjoy GR instead. It was SO refreshing to get away for a couple of days. We're thankful for little family bonding trips. Molly's especially thankful for hotel pools!
And now for more picture catching up. I think I'm up to date after this post!!! :)
