I found an OB practice. I met with them 3 times this week to catch up on things. All is well, and although I am dilating, the baby is still high, and I was told to head back to Chicago! So we will be leaving on Sunday afternoon and staying until the following Sunday or Monday.
We spent the week mostly outside...Not really doing anything eventful--Just hanging in the backyard and around the neighborhood. The kids have taken to going to the park with Daddy after dinner while I clean up. And Jonah and Noah have taken up almost daily rollerblading on the trails that go ALL over the place. There are trails EVERYWHERE up here and they all connect somewhere.
Today, we decided to get up and go explore...After coming up with about a hundred places we wanted to see, we decided to head to Minnehaha Falls. It is one of the largest parks in Minneapolis, and one of the most visited...Also, as a perk for me, they have an amazing seafood restaurant on the premises!!! The falls is the original location that the Minnehaha creek used to lead into the Mississippi river. The glaciers are amazing, as the water level has drastically changed over years and years, and has left behind a 53 foot waterfall. It is especially fun to see this time of year because the water levels are so high--and as you can see from the pictures, there is still snow back by the water.
After hiking for about an hour and a half...Up and down the waterfall--YES, I was TIRED, and having contractions is NOT fun while climbing a ton of stairs up a waterfall--we did indulge in a great outdoor lunch at Sea Salt. The food was amazing!! Fresh oysters, steamed shrimp tacos, and crab cakes!!
Enjoy the pictures--
