Here is the baby bump (mound) at 35 weeks.
Last week for playgroup we went to Bauman Orchards to pick some yummy apples.Jen and Ava met up with us, which was such a nice treat since we haven't seen each other in forever. The girls were very happy to be together but Ava was missing her boyfriend, Morgan. That's what you get for liking older men who go to preschool:)
Ava and Megan enjoying the farm animals. Pepper took one look at them and didn't want to get out of the wagon. Not a fan of farm animals I guess.
Pepper was so freaked out by the animals I barely convinced her to walk through the hay bale maze once. I couldn't even get her on the slide. Now you know how scared she was.
Pepper was much happier outside the barn helping me pick apples.
And of course eating them.
The girls with our spoils.
This was the best shot I could get of these two. Great smiles but too bad no one wants to look at me.
Pepper and Ava enjoying their treat for being such good helpers, little apple shaped bottles of fresh apple juice. Yummy!Now, I just need enough energy to make a really delicious fresh apple pie!
Last Saturday morning, the 24th, we loaded up the kids plus Abby and Ben and headed downtown to do the Akron Marathon Kids Fun Run.
Last Saturday morning, the 24th, we loaded up the kids plus Abby and Ben and headed downtown to do the Akron Marathon Kids Fun Run.All the kids were super excited as you can tell. We were worried it would rain but it ended up being a beautiful morning.
Since the little ones and strollers go last, the race had some entertainment for the little kids. Pepper joined right in because she wanted to get closer to the "ballerina."
Marching along.
Morgan was too shy to join but had to give his sister instructions, like always!
Becky was part of a relay team and joined us just in time for our little race to start.
Finally, it was time to take off and boy did Pepper take off!
Good form Morgan.
Here's a video Cody took of the kids running. Unfortunately, I had the camera most of the time and was so far behind everyone that I didn't catch anyone crossing the finish line and getting their medals. Pepper was super excited though and on the way to church on Sunday kept telling me that she had run a race and got a medal.:
After the race, the kids got their goodie bags and treats and we all sat down to enjoy the musical stylings of Zobapago, a local children's band.
Pepper caught sight of the ballerina again and didn't let go of her till we finally had to drag her away. Here's a video of them dancing together:
After the break, we had to walk back through the course to get to our cars at the starting line. By the time it was all done I was exhausted and having lots of Braxton Hicks contractions. I decided to take it easy the rest of the day because my mom comes next week and I am going to try my best to keep this baby inside until she gets here!
Sunday afternoon, we tackled some projects in the basement trying to find all our baby stuff and get prepared. We also brought the pool inside and filled it with balls. Pepper was quite happy about this and also about me taking her picture.
Pepper trying to be the photographer.
Cheesy, cheesy.
Morgan wanted his picture taken as well but has a hard time standing still. It is hard when you have such awesome Jedi skills.

However, Ben didn't last too long and was back in the stroller with me for a nice slow walk through the one mile race.
Good form Morgan.

Seriously, Pepper is SO STINKIN' CUTE! I almost can't stand it. And you look great! I can barely believe you're going to be a mother of three! Awesome.
