Michael, George and I had a wonderful time on our vacation in Florida! We were all very sad to leave the warm weather. We had plenty of time to visit with family and friends, eat at our favorite restaurants and spend some time relaxing.
The highlight of our trip was probably Gatorland. Knowing how much Michael likes gators, we just had to take him there. We were lucky enough to see the close encounters show, the gator wrasslin’ show and the jumparoo show. The close encounters show included various snakes and a scorpion. This was probably the most foul show I’ve ever seen. I don’t think anything scares me as much as snakes! We got to see a man wrestle a gator and Michael got to have his picture taken on top of a real live gator!!!! We couldn’t believe he actually did it! The jumparoo show was the scariest show of all. It doesn’t make you feel safe in your boat when you see a gator jump 4 to 5 feet in the air. I was lucky enough to get some great action shots. Yuck!!!

We also had a great time watching George and Wilson play. Mostly, Wilson just annoyed George all day long. We couldn’t believe that George was even smaller than Wilson when we first got him. Wilson made George look like a beast! George taught Wilson how to sit, go out through the doggie-door and how to bark. My dad was so happy with that last trick. They were both very tired from playing at the end of each day.
Little Nora did very well at her first (of many) parties! My friends threw me a wonderful baby shower while we were down in FL. Everyone was required to wear tiaras! It was so much fun! There was a chocolate fountain, delicious cake and Shirley Temples to drink. We received tons of wonderful gifts. Nora will definitely will a well dressed baby! Thank you so much!!!
My friend Katie is practicing her photography skills and took some really beautiful maternity shots of me. Here is a sneak peak!
Michael and I are headed to another appointment today. Our next visit will be the last bi-weekly appointment! We start our weekly visits after that. Not much longer now!
