Weekend Away & Pregnancy Pics

First of all, THANK YOU to all of you who so enthusiastically encouraged us to take the weekend away. After deciding to do it, I looked forward to it so much, and kept thinking that it was the only reason that I didn't want this baby to make an early appearance. Our friends came through in a big way and covered the weekend for us and showed our munchkins a great time. When I told Owen that we were going away he asked if we were going for a long time. I said, "No, not too long," (thinking that was the answer he was hoping for), to which he said, " I want it to be a long long time." Okey dokey--yeah, needless the say the kids didn't have any problems with us leaving. I guess Caroline would randomly say "Mommy?" "Daddy?" but then just started calling KK and Jeff Mommy and Daddy. How could she move on so easily? (Boo-hoo).
We headed out about 3:00 on Friday and truly realized how much we needed the time to ourselves the second we stepped into "our room" at the B+B (www.hiddenvalleybandb.com). This was our fifth visit, and it is even possible that Caroline is a B+B baby ;). We ate out, hiked Brasstown Bald (which is the highest peak in Georgia), took a big afternoon nap, played a couple of rounds of late-night Scrabble, and went on some nice walks (for me) and jogs (for Duff). By Sunday, we were ready to head back to our little ones and be parents again. I had my ritual "a big change is coming" cry a few minutes before our departure, and now this baby is welcome to come anytime.
Here are some long-awaited pregnancy pics. Officially there are 2 weeks to go.
