Week 27

Alright Folks,
We're checking in week 27.

This was a good week for us all.  Jason's workload continues to allow him to leave on time and we are certainly thankful for that.  Although the pregnancy has been almost ideal, Rachel is starting to experience the discomfort of the third trimester.  The little aches and pains are becoming more and more common, especially in her back.  Take a look below for a quick recap of this week's activities.

Wednesday
We went to a Texas Rangers ballgame.  We thought we'd take advantage of our remaining days where we can easily do something like that on a weeknight.  They were playing the Toronto Blue-jays and although we didn't get to stay for the entire game, the Rangers ended up winning on a home run that was hit as we got up from our seats, so our timing was pretty good. It was also dollar hot dog night so we got a couple.  It's a good thing that they were only $1 because they weren't very good.

Saturday
Jason went for a bike ride at Lake Grapevine with Kevin while Rachel went antique shopping with Courtney and her family.  Rachel was on a mission to find a red egg basket for her friend, Mallory.  Mallory uses them for taking photos of newborn babies.  Although Rachel didn't find the basket she was looking for, she did find a miniature red suitcase.  It was actually a case for antique roller skates.  Rachel ended up purchasing it for Mallory.  That afternoon, we installed a wall decal for Kennedy's room.  It's a large decal of a tree.  We anticipated some bickering during the installation process, but it was actually pretty easy to install.  We didn't fuss at each other even a single time.

Sunday

Jason went to go get some donuts in the morning and Sammy tried sneaking out the door.  Jason decided that Sammy should go for a little ride and put him in the car.  At first, Sammy seemed to be pretty excited about the new experience, but as they left the street, Sammy started to cry.  He didn't like the joy ride so much after they left the neighborhood.

True to form, we have included a week 27 photo of "the bump" below.
