What I'll Miss

Sleeping on my lap

What I'll miss

5 weeks ago I have birth to our third, and most likely last, child. I've been having a hard time knowing this will be the last time to experience all the little joys that come with having a newborn (yes, there are joys despite the lack of sleep).

This morning, I'm propped up in bed nursing my precious boy and I'm thinking how much I'll miss the little noises- the sighs and hums of utter contempt. And every once in a while, he'll give a little sleepy half-smile. All is complete in his little world.

Still traveling

The parking lot that is the highway between Little Rock and Memphis.

The mighty Mississippi

The water tower says "Mumford, My Kind of Place".

Finally in Kentucky.

Red River

Let the fun (and leg cramps) begin!

It's 5 hours after we intended to leave, but 2 new tires later we're finally on our way to Lake Barkley State Park in Kentucky.

The entire trip is 13 hours but we'll be breaking it up for everyone's sake. Tonight we'll stay in Little Rock, AR at The Peabody Hotel, where hopefully we'll get to see the famous Peabody Duck March.

7.5 hours to go, not counting pit stops, which will happen more than normal thanks to my 32 week preggo bladder.

Real or silk?

These came from our garden and you really can't tell if they're real or silk.

The smaller variety of sunflowers turned out prettier than the giant ones.

Today is National Flip Flop Day (the reason for my feet picture)
