On Saturday, we took Peanut to the dog park, and he had the best time. At one point, a boxer (his favorite) came in, and Peanut's eyes lit up like it was Christmas morning - it was too funny. There were probably 20 dogs running around, and he was exhausted after playing for an hour.
Yesterday afternoon we went and had some professional pictures taken. We trampled through poison ivy (though we're still rash free tonight, so we're assuming we're in the clear), lay down in weeds and hiked to an old wooden barn. It may be awhile before we get pictures to share, but we're hoping it was worth it (the photographer was really excited, which is always a good sign!).
As an added bonus from the dog park, Peanut slept in until after 8 a.m. today (yay!). We then headed to the zoo. Seems like everyone else had the same idea as the place was packed...but we had a good time looking at the animals (especially the dolphin show and the penguins!).
Baby now weighs about 4 3/4 pounds (like your average cantaloupe) and is almost 18 inches long. Her fat layers — which will help regulate her body temperature once she's born — are filling her out, making her rounder. Her central nervous system is maturing and her lungs are continuing to mature as well. Her favorite game is kicking my ribs...which usually elicits a yelp from me! Hard to believe, but we only have 6 weeks to go!
