Maybe today???....(Part 2)

Hey everyone,
That's right, no baby time yet. Our due date was yesterday and although I experienced some very strange occurrences which I will not describe here, it seems that I am checking off the list of things that happen before you go into labor quite thoroughly. We needed to have a change of scene around here so Brent and I headed to Rockaway Beach and Riis Park for some oceanic adventures. It was actually pretty cold once we got there, so we just sat on our little chairs and read baby books for a couple hours. It was us and about 10 other people there which was delightful. The ocean air and deep blue Atlantic did us right. We're excited to take our boy to the beaches around here someday (we keep forgetting that we actually do live in a beach town! We'll have to make up for that in coming years.) Okay! So if anyone is interested, back to the montage.

(I think I am doing this more for myself to document this transforming year so bear with me!)

Doug was definitely starting get curious about his mom....




And then I got bigger and bigger... at this current point of 40 weeks and 1 day it looks like I have 2 watermelons in my tummy, but hey who's counting. The belly shots get a little too huge for public display here.



And some final shots that I'd like to call "Before We Were Four" (featuring Doug, our first born. ;)




We're not sure Doug is totally cool with the new brother coming, but we think he'll dig him soon enough. Okay, this has been really good, and fun(?), though it has continued to support the fact that the Dickinson's are not technically inclined in any way. (this took way too long!) But, we promise to keep you posted the best we can when the human Baby D comes. Keep praying for us, all four of us!

Love, S & B & D
