Why sore hands you ask? Well I went canoeing and camping this past weekend with Lindsey, Ashley and Mrs. Whitenight and the [extended] Whitenight Family. I honestly had a fabulous time with the Women - our group name from Ryan. I do feel like Lindsey got the short end of the stick having to share an air mattress with me tossing a turning all night but luckily she loves me, restless sleep and all.
The trip started with chatting and comedy on the drive up. Traffic was not on our side, so it was about 10pm when we arrived, but I dont think I have ever set up in the day light on a camping trip with the Whitenights, so really it was nothing new. Also, they are all such pros it was a breeze. The next morning we had some breakfast and then went canoeing. Mother Nature was all about us being soaked, and the rain came down several times on us. The Women also all flipped our canoes. It was the first time I have ever flipped, and with the exception of losing Lindsey's hat, was not a big deal. After canoeing we waited and waited and waited and finally the bus came to return us to our camp. The afternoon/evening ended up being beautiful! We had a delicious dinner of BLT's and great company. The kids kept us all entertained and I think Mrs. Whitenight ended up being the ladder ball champ!!! We sat around the fire and enjoyed s'mores and then hit the sack. The next morning we enjoyed fabulous pancakes curtosy of Mrs. Whitenight (I know you are all jealous), packed up, said our good byes and got on the road....back to the real world.
It was baby B's first camping and canoeing trip and I am sure it will not be his last. I had such a great time - thanks so much for letting me tag along!!!

Wow...89 days left!
Yes, you read that correctly. Only 89 days until B Monster's due date. I cannot even wait to not be pregnant any longer!! I am excited to meet the B Monster but also just to be back to my normal - all alone, one person - body. He has moved "down" and let me tell you, the pressure is incredible at times. He is also a kicking machine. Specifically, when I have been sitting at work or when I am trying to get the final 30 minutes of sleep in the morning. I guess he is like his dad already...driving me nuts in the morning!!
Yesterday my fabulous sister-in-law passed on some great gear from her boys...a bassinet, a pack and play, and a car seat w/ base. We did not register for a bassinet, so I am the most excited for this! I need to take some pictures....well find my camera first.
Work has been pretty nuts, but the primary is tomorrow and my drama (or my bosses) should be done - thank goodness!!! I am losing another co-worker, as the guy who replaced Lindsey is taking a position w/ another Rep. Who knows when and if my boss will find a replacement....
Heather will be home at the end of this month and the begining of Sept!!!!!! I can hardly wait!!!!
