• Last Saturday, we went to a playdate at the EDHs community center park. After that, we drove down to Safari West!

  

  Zachary had a great time since he loves animals (from a distance.) We met up with Dana and Bhavana’s families for a ‘safari’ tour. Since I was pregnant and couldn’t go, I stayed behind with Jason. I showed Jason some of the impressive animals, like the cheetah and giraffe, but his favorite was the spotted quail! He was so busy sensing all that was around him, especially the different animal sounds, that he was not fussy at all – yea! And strolling around the grounds, Jason received numerous compliments on his red hair … which I have since read is the most rare (natural) hair color.

  

  

  

  James reported back that Zachary sang during the safari ride, and was happy and well-behaved. Yea again! After the tour, we stayed for a BBQ dinner … good thing it was buffet, because we were all so famished, we had at least 2-3 plates of food.

  

  

  On the pregnancy front, my back is feeling more achy. And I feel constantly out of breath. I think I was in a lot worse shape starting this pregnancy compared to my first one. I also went in for my 1-hour glucose (gestational diabetes) test. For some reason, this time I didn’t need to fast. The drink tasted like flat, cold 7-Up. It was pretty relaxing just sitting in the waiting room, reading magazines for an hour. Last time, I felt really nauseated, so I was pleasantly surprised. Let’s hope I pass!
