Is It really almost September?

I find it absolutely crazy that September is just two days away! Where did this summer go?? I'm finding myself grasping onto all the little enjoyments of summertime i feel I haven't taken full advantage of yet this year. I'm happy we have a few more months of nice fall weather to ease us into wintertime, but I'm sad to say good-bye to hot, summer weather!

As far as pregnancy life is going, I'm feeling great! I don't feel the need to pass out at 8pm and all seems to be good and well with the little one, Praise God! Were getting more and more excited to meet this little person forming in my belly. Last week we felt the first kick and had our 20 week ultrasound appointment. Just a few more realities of what's coming in 4 more months.

Here are a few new pictures to show you all what we've been up to this month. Enjoy!

Can you say "Kejimkujik"




Jon and I decided to take the recent long weekend as an opportunity to explore one of the coolest National Parks here in Nova Scotia. It was a quick trip.....just over 24 hours, but we had a great time....for the most part.....ha! Poor Jon got the raw end of the deal when we had to portage our canoe 6 times. However, I am married to a wonderful and very strong man, so he managed it well.
Aside from the whole lugging of the canoe, we had an awesome time paddling lakes and quiet steams, camping next to a lake you could hop in for a swim and sleeping in the rain under the protection of our warm tent. Though I still can't pronounce Kejimkujik, I would go back again in a heartbeat!
