Not as easy as I thought...

So we went to the fire station yesterday morning so I could show off how well I installed the car seat base. I think the fireman's first comment was "I think you broke every rule in the book!" Funny, I thought I followed every rule in the book. I guess it just goes to show you why, exactly, 90% of car seats are installed incorrectly! The nice man walked us through how to install it correctly in both of our cars. He also made us do it a couple of times so if we need to take it out and install the bases in other cars, we know how to do it. What a great service, I am so grateful that the fire department helps people out this way.

After that, we found the perfect scrap book for Monday yesterday morning - it actually matches his room! We walked both down to Burlingame ave for breakfast, about 1.5 miles, and up to Broadway Ave for lunch, around another 2.5 miles. We both successfully scored a nap, and had an easy night in. Not withstanding all the exercise, I had a terrible nights sleep - I am guessing around 4 hours.

We started walking to breakfast this morning talking about how we needed to keep walking.. and walking some more. So we opted out of our normal breakfast spots, and walked to one about 2 miles away. It took a while to get there (obviously - I am 9 1/2 months pregnant!) and we had to wait outside for a while to be seated. But the day was gorgeous and reminded us how happy we are living in California and specifically in Burlingame. After breakfast, we strolled home, by way of Burlingame Ave to get a final bit of exercise in. Then it was on to details like raking the front lawn (Tim did it), getting the oil changed on the car, and buying groceries. Though not the most restful day, we did accomplish a ton, and I am looking forward to falling into bed... and soon!!!

Not too much to report, but life is good. Monday is growing and stretching. Now his kicks tend to get me on both sides of my belly. My shape has changed as I do feel like he is getting increasingly lower... but it doesn't mean anything until he decides to show up!
