At church this morning, I was half tempted to tape a sign that said &#8220;<strong>1 1\/2 weeks left<\/strong>&#8221; to my wife, but it was fun to have so many people approach us (her) about it anyways.<\/p>\n<p>In lieu of baby news, I&#8217;ve got a couple of interesting little stories to tell from the past week.  The first is from my mom and her kindergarteners:<\/p>\n<p><em>On Friday, a student said, &#8220;Mrs. Fredman, you said you would tell us where you went that day you were gone, and you forgot to do that.&#8221; I told them that I went to your place to paint and I went to my Grandbaby&#8217;s shower.  One of the boys said, &#8220;You don&#8217;t give babies showers. That&#8217;s not how you get them clean. My mom put me in the sink and gave me a bath. That&#8217;s how you get babies clean, not in a shower.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>My second story (and I wish I had a picture of this one), is from Saturday.  Since Sarah stopped working at TSA, she has a big &#8220;before-the-baby-comes&#8221; list that she is trying to get done.  One of those items was to plant flowers in the pots in front of our house.  Since it doesn&#8217;t work so well for her to bend over anymore, we worked out a system.  She would sit on a little hill, legs sprawled out in front of her, and I would bring her: a) a pot full of dirt, b) flowers, and c) spare dirt.  Then Sarah would put them all together for me to place in front of the house!<\/p>\n<p>Like I said, that would have been a priceless picture, and I&#8217;m pretty sure I could&#8217;ve snapped a shot before she got up!  Oh well&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s kinda puzzling to me that we haven&#8217;t had the baby yet, considering the number of times per day that people express surprise that Sarah&#8217;s still pregnant!
