The 3rd and Final Lap!



So here we are 3rd Trimester and still room to grow.   
We recently on what we are calling our "Baby Moon"  to Seattle.  It was our last bug opportunity to go somewhere at a couple before all the Hustle and Bustle of the Summer.   We had a wonderful time up there staying with our friends Jennifer and JJ. While there  we saw such sights as Pikes Place, The Gum Wall, The Fremont Troll, The Locks and Alki Beach.   It was the 50th Anniversary of the Space Needle so in honor they had the top painted traffic cone Orange,  The original color,  if you can believe it.  It was nice being back in the area we use to live in 2006.  We really miss that City, and it will always hold a special place in our hearts.  Can't wait to take Jasper there some day.  
I would really like to say my pregnancy is going well, but the truth is that it has been rough at times.  Probably my biggest challenge has been my Heart Burn.  I had been Suppressing the discomfort with Tums, Pep to Bismol and Papaya Enzymes,  but Matthew our Friend pointed out that Antacids could prevent my body from absorbing all the nutrients from food and vitamins.  I am attempting to go off of them and change my diet for anything that can trigger an attack.   Nevertheless,  Joshua and I have been so thrilled to feel Jasper Kicking about inside of me.  We've been having a fun time putting his room together,  I just completed his crib and it looks awesome.  Also we went to the Portland Flower market and I got a bunch of moss and stumps and air plants for his whimsical room.  All we need to do is make that Mobile with the cool stuff I bought.  Enjoying the Portland Sun and hoping for smooth sailing in this third and last trimester!
Love you all!!!
