So Joshua and I went on one more Baby Moon to Trout Creek in Mt. Adams Washington. What a beautiful place. Joshua has always wanted to go due to the extraterrestrial happenings there and I wanted to see too. We had a great trip there and even stopped in Hood River for Lunch and to take Keyker's for a walk. We finally arrived and set up camp. We were one of 2 other campers there and got to pick where we wanted to stay. So we picked this spot right next to Trout Creek and the bathrooms. I am all for just hiking somewhere and setting up camp but being pregnant if I am not close to a bathroom I will pee myself. But that is all they had a small nice out house to pee in, no showers or mirrors, so much fun. We made dinner, had a great fire, I knitted and read my book and Joshua sang us sweet songs while Keyki just wanted to go to bed. When we finally did go to bed we opened the roof and stared at the stars I even saw some weird light while Joshua saw stuff through out the night. Thank god we sleep in the element when we camp now because at 5am in the morning it started pouring. So that meant no breakfast and Hot Cocoa for my morning start. We sleep till 9am and packed up the car and headed home. It was such a great last camping trip with the 3 of us and we can't wait to take Jasper on his first camping trip this Summer or Fall.
Joshua has finally started his Master's in Elementary Special Education Licensing Program. It will go on for a year and then we all can finally move Back to Bend. I will be there with Jasper but Joshua will have to stay in Portland in a studio apartment till he graduates. It is going to be a rough year but I am really excited for him and so proud of him for striving for a better life for him and his family. Plus he is such a patient and giving human being and I am so honored to have him as my husband, life partner, best friend and soon to be father of our child.
On a last note I was 35 weeks here and so far so good. We have gotten a lot of the Newborn stuff for Jasper like the cloth diapers and bottles. We have taken Breastfeeding classes and Cloth diapering classes. I feel prepared to do both. My heartburn is still really bad and now my feet swell. But I am enjoying my time off and have many things to do before Jasper comes.

Yippppppeeeeeeeee!!!! I am so excited I can hardly stand it!! You look amazing, as usual. Motherhood fits you my beautiful friend. You are both just glowing. All these pics make me miss you but look forward to an overdue camping trip (maybe close to home for Aunt Jesse) one of these days with the 7 of us (You, Joshua, Jasper, Keyki, Me, Adam and Blue Dog). What fun we will have! Miss you and love you so much! Your belly seems to be growing by the day and if I were there, I would kiss it every single day! :) Love you guys. So excited for Baby Foxtail to be here!! <3 Love Aunt Jesse, Uncle Adam (who reads these with me) and Blue Dog too! xoxo
