We went to the cabin up north over the weekend!  What a nice and relaxing trip!  (although, right now I'm super annoyed because I was mere seconds away from finishing this entry when somehow I deleted the entire thing with no way to get it back! grrrrrrr!!)

Anyway, we went to the beach, for a drive but mostly just lazed around enjoying each others company!  Our last mini trip as a family of THREE!!  YIKES!   Here are some pics!

Gwen shows off her muscles!

Gwen dips her foot into the LEACH pond!!  (I got a leach swimming here last year on my toe!  GROSS!! First I ran out of the water, then realizing that as a mother it my responsibility to not only save myself, but my child as well! So, I turned around and grabbed poor Gwen by one arm - to protect her from those blood eating savages!) haha  I guess she has no memory, since she went into this water more readily than our previous day at beach!

The Pink elephant!  Gwen now knows that when you see the pink elephant, it means you are UP NORTH!!  We take her picture standing by him every year to see how she's grown!  :)

Gwen sure LOVES those Michigan cherries!

Running through the cabin!

No matter where we go, there is always a playground!

Gwen is not in the mood to swim today!  Too bad, cause I could have spent HOURS relaxing in the crisp refreshing spring water!

Lazy.. yep, that's totally me right now - 8 months pregnant in August, and quite honestly it's not nearly as horrid as I thought it would be!! 

BUT still, it takes hours.. no, DAYS to clean the house!  If I can actually motivate myself to finish.  I have to force myself to take poor Gwen outside,  even though I really just want to force poor Gwen to take a nice nap! (so I can get some shut eye myself! hehe)  Once a week that happens - if I'm really lucky.  yaaaaaawn!  I don't feel like cooking either.. so it's been really easy lame meals or dining out.  I had/have full intentions on making all kinds of freezer meals for when the babe arrives - HA HA HA!!  I will just laugh at my brilliant ideas right now!  I keep hoping that nesting starts soon and I actually finish everything that I want to within the next MONTH!  AHHH!
