Kelly was 34 weeks on Friday, May 30th.  Baby is measuring at 18 inches long and is about 4.75 pounds, or the size of a cantaloupe.  I’m allergic to cantaloupe, so that’s unfortunate.  Kelly is starting to get more uncomfortable physically. I am trying my best to massage certain parts that are hurting her, but nothing really seems to help.  What does seem to help, are Hot Fudge Sundaes from Petrucci’s, a local ice cream shop near Kristin and Ardy’s house.  Kelly and Joe enjoyed a few sundaes, as well as some water ice this weekend, all within a very small window of time.

Kelly’s mom was in town this weekend to visit everyone and spend time with Alex and Ryan.  I replaced the windows in our bedroom with some help from Ardy. It’s nice to actually be able to sleep with the windows open at night and get some fresh air.  Friday night we all went to the Greek Festival that they have, what seems like every other week, at St. Sophia’s by our house.  Classic Carnival food, but lots of Gyros and authentic Greek food, which we all really love.  Ryan rode a whole bunch of rides, some of which he seemed very unimpressed with.  Joe and Ardy, however, were VERY impressed with the stand that sold Deep Fried Twinkies.   Some might say, it was Love at first bite? Some might also say it was diabetes on a stick.  Regardless, it was amazing.  We still haven’t been able to cross off “eat the giant lamb shank at the Greek Festival” from our bucket list, but I think we’ll be able to do it one day, perhaps in a week or two, when the Festival returns.
