37 weeks down, 3 to go.....
33 lbs, 1 cm dialated, and one very anxious lady with an industrious belly band keeping all things together.

NelsonSynth!
Hey! We just built a 3D Nelson Living Room. You guys should try this, and show it on your blogs...
We got 33% synthy (not too bad for only 60 pictures).

Some Tomatoes
The other day Danielle told me that one of the most beautiful things she has ever seen is red, then orange, then yellow, then green tomatoes, progressively on a single vine. I like that kind of thing about Danielle.
I saw this cluster on the way into the house this afternoon. What else does Danielle notice? What other regular stuff would I have overlooked? These are the kinds of things that I want to get to the bottom of.

Steve and Linsey in Port Huron
We visited Steve and Linsey in Port Huron Saturday. Hank, Mary, Christina, Dan, Kim, Alden, C.J., Nick, Shaina, and Amelia were there too. It ruled.
Steve and Linsey live in an enormous waterside loft that used to be an ice warehouse. It was the appertment used in filming Big, starring Tom Hanks. I urged them to get a trampoline. I took a picture of it, but my phone apparently failed in sending it to my email.
Here we are at a riverside park a block away where we learned about shipping routs and ballast and Indian net sinkers. We ate donuts and chili...
...and watched some dude catch a million fish. They were boiling up at the surface right next to the pier rocks and he just put in his line and flung them out onto the sidewalk. A fish every 30 seconds or so. He said they were silver bass. He was interrupted by his cell phone at one point and even I felt the sense of urgency as he lost precious time. "Hello? ...well I'm trying to fish."
We went to a nice beach at the mouth of the river at Lake Huron. It was a popular spot. Steve and Bear swam, I dragged Willow in a small boat, and Dan's allergies tormented him.
Bear and Alden dug a deep hole.
At first Willow was very mistrusting of Steve. Of all people. She (characteristically) scowelled heavily at him, then (uncharacteristically) cried a little. He quickly won her over.
Willow took the opportunity to do a little boating.
Bear was throwing some darts and one stuck into the spine of this Michael Chabon book. What does that mean?

On Friday, the Nelsons went to the new Star Wars movie, the Clone Wars.
Willow had her own seat and could hardly contain herself (then gave up trying). During the previews she kept whispering to us -which to Willow means scrunching up shoulders, craning head forward and making comically loud whisper sounds.
Bear, near the beginning, leaned over and said, "this is so great."
With about an hour to go, Willow got too restless and I walked her around by her monkey backpack leash in the aisle where she would scowl then smile fiercely to passers by.
