Yesterday they had a mock "shooter on base" drill, so we couldn't leave the house from 9-3:00 pm. We made good use of our time though. I wanted to make some do-ahead recipes and stock Audra's freezer while I was here, so it was the perfect opportunity to begin that process.
What did I make? Glad you asked. Meatloaf (2), sloppy joes (2), mostaciolli, tuna cassarole, blueberry and banana muffins and sauerkraut and polish sausage, which we ate for dinner.
I also did some yard work and picked up doggy poop, it's hard to bend over when your 9 months pregnant. I sorted baby clothes to be washed (bigger sizes). Later after the sun began to set we took the dogs for a two mile walk. They are big strong dogs (black Lab and a Husky), I really don't know how Audra walks them both at the same time. She was concerned that they'd pull me over and I'd get hurt, so we each walked one. I was touched until she said, if you get hurt you're no good to me. I got a big laugh out of that comment and the fact that she can text and walk the dogs at the same time. I asked her if that was legal.
The bats here are twice the size of the ones at home and there were plenty of them flying around. Audra said the last time she and a friend walked late at night they saw two baby rattlesnakes, a tranchilla and bunch of bats. I don't care to see a huge spider, but wouldn't mind seeing a rattlesnake at a safe distance.
I would also like to catch a glimpse of one of these while I'm here. It is an African antelope, called an Oryx that lives here in the desert.
I can't wait to start sharing Audra's birth experience......soon people....soon.

sounds like lots of fun and work. Today must be the day because it was my vote for Rowyn's birthday.
