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.

Lisa,
I was having a very bad day (missing my husband and being very sick) when I just turned on your blog, the music on your blog really made me feel better.
So thanks,
Rachel

I agree. A baby in your tummy is a perfect excuse for anything! And when he joins you, the excuses continue! If want to leave somewhere (or don't want to go somewhere) ... baby needs a nap. If you're moody and emotional ... you were up with the baby last night. And best of all, if you want some Mommy-baby cuddle time away from everyone else ... baby needs to be fed! And off you go for some bonding!

You are so lucky your tummy just barely popped out! Haha, I have not been as lucky! I've been doing the rubber band your pants closed thing for like a week now and I'm like 8 weeks behind you! : ) We are so excited for you and your little boy!
