Pleasant kind of Wilderness
(If the kids could do it. . .well you can't get across any other way)
There is a scene in Pride and Prejudice that occurs in what Lady Catherine de Bourgh refers to as a "Pleasant kind of Wilderness" near Miss Elizabeth Bennet's house. The producer's translation of "pleasant" is far from my ideal, but proved to be equivalent to the little adventure our family took the other day near our home. The weather and company were pleasant and the rest was a wilderness much like unto the movie's rendition.

(Confused as to which direction would be advantageous for all to travel. By the way, great walking sticks were found by Fernando.)

You win the award for "toughest pregnant lady"! Really, a hike in the woods? Where are your bonbons?
I am with Claudia!!! Way to go Mom. I love the profile shot Fernando took of you. Kids look great and were certainly better company than Lizzy had in her walk through the prettiesh little wilderness.
What are men compared to rocks and mountains? I am glad you had a fun outdoor adventure.
And that didn't put you into labor?!? Geesh! I was getting really excited for the trip to the hospital at the end of the posting... I think you are the cutest prego lady ever!! :)

I could hardly notice the wilderness--only the sweet blue belly carrying my niece.
You are an adorable preggo, and so much fun.
Your kiddos are lucky to have such great parents.
I love you guys.
