It certainly is a lot quieter around the house today. Luke and Lily are back home in Dover and I'm sure Trish and the kids are really glad to be back home with Daddy. The baby shower yesterday went well and Sara enjoyed seeing friends and family and she received lots of adorable baby clothing and gifts. We packed her extra suitcase as full as we could for the trip back to Hawaii on Tuesday. I think we are going to send the rest in a flat rate box. It has been a very pleasant and relaxing visit and I think it was a good trip for Sara. She is excited to get back to Honolulu to pick up her pets and start getting that nursery ready for our new little granddaughter. She had her ultra sound right before she came out and the baby looked fine, everything normal and the right size for 22 weeks. Wednesday, she has her doctors appointment with her OBGyn. Mean while, here at home, the pace will slow a little and we will get back to our usual routine. Zoo day on Tuesday and mowing twice a week!
