Here is part 2 of our month of May. The Second half of the Month was busy, but it wasn’t quite as busy as the first half. It just seems that way. 🙂
Darrell had a couple of gigs with the Abilene Pipers, so we went to those. One of them was playing for the Illumination ceremony for the Breckenridge Relay for Life. The photos didn’t turn out all that great, so, no photos for that. The next day, the Pipers played for the Abilene Zoo’s Zoolute to Dyess. It was pretty fun walking around the Zoo and seeing all of the families there. It was probably the most crowded I had seen the zoo with the exception of Spring Break. The picture of the Flamingo’s is in there because the Flamingo in the middle has a baby under it. The other ones are sitting on eggs.
Then I can’t go a month without adding at least one photo of each of the cats. Zedd has always liked laying down with his feet crossed and Darrell finally got a good picture of him. It might just end up on the Christmas card (if there is room after all Baby’s photos are on there. :P). And then for the longest time, our towels kept being pulled off of their racks onto the floor and we knew who was doing it, but we couldn’t prove it. I finally got proof that he was pulling them down and then getting them situated for himself. He is always dragging clothes around the house. He really likes to help when it comes to Laundry day. Just the other day, Darrell noticed that their towel from the bookcase was missing and we spent a long time looking for it. We found it when I finally took out the last load of laundry that I had done. I never took it off the shelf, so the only other option was that Poleeko decided it was time to clean it, so he took it to where I would pick it up and throw it in the laundry. They sure are funny cats. 🙂
Last but definitely not least: As many of you know, I have quit my job. Today was the last day of the school year, and my last day at work. I am going to just be a stay at home Mommy. I might go back occasionally just to keep my license up and help out when they are desperate. But, since I was leaving, the lovely ladies and gentleman at the bus barn threw me a surprise going away party/Baby Shower. I truly felt loved and appreciated. They did a wonderful job and Baby got some needed items. Many of the girls gave me a hard time because they didn’t know the sex, so they had to pick neutral items. We loved everything they came up with! One of the girls I talk to the most found the cutest little ride along/push School Bus. I absolutely love it and can’t wait until Baby is old enough. There weren’t many photos taken as it was just a get some food after your route kind of deal. It did make me a little sad that I was leaving, and I didn’t get enough time to write thank-yous for everyone, but I will get them out at the beginning of next school year. They just said that I needed to bring Baby by so they could see him/her.
So that is what we have been up to this month. I am glad that it is almost over, but our preparation for Baby has just begun. 🙂 I do have Nursery photos of the painting we have been doing, but I think that shall wait till tomorrow.
