The Boston Children's Museum

Last night was Scott's Birthday, so we went to $1 night at The Children's Museum. It starts at 5 and ends at 9, we stayed for 1.5 hrs, but for $3 it was perfect. I am not sure who had more fun Joey or Scott. There was lots of Balls, Boats and Trucks, but the highlight was the Bubble room. There is a machine where you can stand and be inside of a bubble.

I forgot the camera so there are no pictures. next time, we will definitely do it again. Yesterday was the day of pictures I missed. I have been taking my camera to StrollerFit, took it out of the bad to charge and never put it back in, so I missed Casey and Joey hugging again, they seem to only do it when there is no Camera, I think they know.

As of now the magic cream cheese has not worked, so the count is 18 days til my due date...

magic cream cheese

So I bought the magic cream cheese yesterday after my StrollerFit class, but the owner said with 2.5 weeks to go he is not guaranteeing anything, he says it has only worked for women within a few days of there due date. We shall see. I ate it on a bagel this am, it tasted good and we shall now just see what happens.

I am now preparing to end my Schedule your Workout Contest at StrollerFit and prepare my moms for heart healthy month and the contest I am holding for that. It should be fun and I hope the ladies will enjoy the recipes we put together in the recipe book.

Off to class I go.

Another Snowy Day

I went to see the OB this am and had an ultrasound. The baby is estimated to be about 5 pounds 5 ounces, same as Joey was at 37 weeks, so the baby will be about a 7 pound baby. Joey called the image on the ultrasound machine a puppy, I hope not!!

I ma 50% effaced, which is great news since I had to have cervadril before the petossin since my cervix was not softened at all. I may go to a shop in Worcester to buy this cream cheese that woman for years have sworn brings on labor or I may make this eggplant parm from a recipe that is used in a restaurant down south that women swear brings on labor, will have to wait and see.

After the Dr's Joey took a 3 hour nap, since we had no mommymuscle sculpt. Then he ate pasta and it was a two handed feat ---

it has been a fun snowy day, which ended with Daddy Jamming on his new guitar for the x-box, an early b-day p resent, one he deserved after dealing with the snow again. I hope we can get out tomorrow.

StrollerFit and The Bump

Tonight you would all be amazed, I am blogging at 12:38, not because I could not sleep but because Cindy (The Waltham SF Owner) and I went to an event and I did not get home til after 10, so I was not asleep at 7:30 and I am wide awake. Hoping to fall asleep soon.....

anyway we went to a networking event for a website and a baby book called "The Bump" created by the same people who have the knot website for weddings. "The bump" deals with pregnancy and the babies first year. I am excited that they will be bringing a book to the Boston Metro Area in May and Hope to see StrollerFit in the book and on the website. Maybe it will bring more business.

I am getting tired, off to bed I go, hoping to not wake up to snow tomorrow, but the forecast tells me otherwise and so far this season they may have been wrong about the amount of snow each storm has brought they have been correct when they have said we are getting snow....
