Even a rainy day in Florida is fabulous because, hey, it's Florida

I am treating myself to a quick trip out of the frozen Northland to visit an aunt in Florida. We enjoyed an amazingly perfect, sunny day at Epcot on Thursday. I loved the Canadian Celtic rock band "Off Kilter." My growing baby boy joyfully devoured a Norwegian sandwich. (I like to attribute any extreme or unstable physical or emotional states of being to my sweet little fetus.) As a pregnant lady, I couldn't ride all the rides, but we had a great time walking around the World's Showcase and analyzing Disney's political/cultural agenda.

Now, in northern Florida near an Air Force base, my aunt feels bad because they cancelled the airshow due to a tornado/storm warning. But, I can't be too disappointed because even though the rain is pouring down, I'm just happy to be out of 0* coldness.

Also, my tummy popped out this week, so my pants are a little too tight for comfort. We went on a successful, little shopping trip so now I don't have to walk around with the top button undone.

It's a boy!!!

Flip-flops should be considered "professional attire" when it hits 60* in Minnesota

I think I've made my point. After enduring such a cold winter (and there is more to come from what I hear), we deserve to wear sandals to work.

WAHOO!!!!! ------------- 60*

Our little Puga will be a soccer player

This week I felt our baby move! Yes, we are going to have a baby in August. Very Exciting!!! S/he even gave a really strong kick, the strongest I've ever felt, to say hi to his/her daddy when Pedro had his hand on my tummy. Daddy was very excited. I can't wait for the ultrasound to see our little Puga and hopefully to find out if s/he will be a Pedro Jr. or a beautiful little girl.
