This past weekend we had a chance to go to apple picking at Green River Farms in Williamstown. It's in a beautiful location, though it seems like everything to do there is pricey - for instance we would have loved a wagon ride but opted out at $15 a person! The orchards are up on a hill so we had to do a little hiking to get up there and get our apples. I'll admit, I was definitely the slow one this trip!And for whatever reason, Eli decided he hated apple picking after helping me get a few off the tree. You can see his displeasure in the picture with Brad. He spent the rest of the time screaming so we picked as fast as we could and booked it back down the hill. The apples are sure tasty though! We've decided our favorites are Macintosh - nice and crisp and tart! Luckily Eli cheered up after a little snack, and then enjoyed the little petting zoo where he got to look at goats, chickens and bunnies. He won't go near enough to touch any of the cr
eatures, much less feed them the little food pellets, but he sure enjoys wandering around looking at them, pointing, and babbling and about them. He also had a good time peeking at the cows through the fence - any kind of farm animal is an "E-I," short for "E-I-O" from the Old MacDonald song.
And here's a belly pic at 34 weeks. Yes I realize my pants are kind of sagging in this picture, but there is not much I can really do about it at this stage =). This is in front of the cornfield they have out there. Corn. Yum.....

YOU LOOK GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!! You "do pregnant" so, so well.
You do look really good! We're going apple picking on Friday, so hopefully ours will be as yummy as yours! Come see us in DC- the farm we went to last week had wagon rides for $3 a person. Of course the cost of the trip down might cancel out the savings...
Come and ride a wagon for FREE in Az, it's too hot....I don't think you'd find anyone crazy enough to give a wagon ride! You're looking ready-are you getting there? Thought of any names? I had Hailey at 34 weeks (where you're at now), and Whit came a day before I was 36 weeks-so you never know...be prepared! Good luck, glad to see you're doing well.
You look awesome, Jeanine! How are you feeling? It's so soon! And funny - like Katie just said, be prepared! I was on bed rest at this point with Emmie... you really never know. Hopefully the little guy will come close to Halloween though (& not on your b-day!). Can't wait to see his sweet little face!
