We went to the botanical gardens yesterday to take some pictures. Here are a few of Claire.
There are some new baby bump pictures on Cale’s blog.
Tonight we are heading to our church’s Fall Festival. Check out the blog later this week to see pictures of Claire enjoying the festivities in her costume.
Last night we drove down to NASA to attend the Ballunar Liftoff Festival. The weather was great – somewhere in the 70s! Totally unheard of in Houston at this time of year. We loved it! And thankfully, they let us park in the handicapped parking area since I’m nine months pregnant. We were able to park right next to the balloon field!
We had so much fun!
Balloons in flight
While waiting for the balloon glow, Claire played in a bouncy house…
and an obstacle course. (I’m amazed at how well she can climb the wall!) At the end of the video, Steve was running around to get her sliding down the slide. There were multiple slides though, so it took a few seconds to find her.

This week Steve had to go to Memphis for a meeting at work. Since this is the last week I would be able to safely fly before Cale’s arrival, Claire and I tagged along.
First stop for me and Claire – The Memphis Zoo. Claire had a blast! So did I! The weather was perfect!
Claire got to ride the carousel. She chose to ride the zebra.
Claire loves the elephants…
and the giraffes.
After a day at the zoo, we met some of our friends for BBQ at Rendezvous. It was delicious, and we had such a good time catching up with our pals.

Today Claire and I did a little shopping while Steve attended more meetings. Early this afternoon, we caught a flight back to Houston – our last flight without Cale in our arms. How exciting!
Claire and I are both very tired after two full days of running around Memphis. It was so nice to go back and visit. We’re looking forward to returning in the springtime to attend a baby shower for Kati and Jason who are expecting twins!!
