Stay-cation

We really wanted to have a little vacation together before the baby arrived, but with so much going on until then we knew we couldn't get away.  So we decided to have a stay-cation; a vacation where we didn't go anywhere! We had a great time and enjoyed the time we spent together.  Saturday we went to Awful Annie's for breakfast, then headed towards Wheatland.  We first stopped to look for some rare swans that John was hoping to find. He thinks he did, but will have to send pictures to people that know better. Don't hold your breath.

He also saw a Bald Eagle and Eurasian Wigeon (new bird for him).  Shani just stayed in the car with Mochi and read.  Then we headed to Camp Far West to go on a hike in Spenceville Wildlife Refuge.  It was a nice 5 mile, relatively flat hike to a waterfall.  It was sunny and warm, which we weren't prepared for, but still very beautiful.  Mochi had a great time running around. 
We then had a nice dinner and went shopping for our homebirth supplies.  Sunday we went to brunch, ran some errands, cleaned house, John watched some football, Shani put baby stuff away, and we finished the baby's room.  We had some wall stickers that we bought and finally put them up. It took a lot longer than we anticipated, but it definitely makes the room look  more complete.  We'll post pictures of it soon.  We had a great stay-cation and really enjoyed the time we spent together!  Now only 4.5 weeks of waiting until our due date!
