It's finally here!!

No, Richelle did not have the baby (yet!). Instead I finally have in my possession our wave-running adventures in Lake Placid (despite delaying tactics and a damaged video). The scenes in the video occurred during the Fourth of July weekend. Heed the warning in the video - please do not try this at home!!

We Survived

I don't know how we did it but we survived Tropical Storm Fay. Judging from the news reports you'd think we just underwent a tsunami when we really just experienced a very windy rainstorm. The best part about the storm? No thunder, which meant Ellie didn't get herself worked up into a tizzy. She merely hid in a closet. The worst part of the storm? The Camry. It seems that a sedan is not the best vehicle for driving on flooded roadways. But the Camry did what needed to be done without stalling in two feet of water. Anyway, here's some pictures and a video.

The Long Wait...

Well, here we sit waiting for TS Fay to strike. The Hurricane Center projected Fay to hit the Keys, but the island folk missed the bullet. Instead, it seems that Central Florida/Space Coast will feel some of the effects of the storm. So, this leaves me with one question - will my mother-in-law use her time off from work (school is out until Wednesday) to send me a copy of the much-anticipated, long overdue, wave-running video that was promised over a month ago?? We'll see.

Move #3

Yes, we are all set to move for the third time in three months! This is the move where we get to unload the POD and use some of our worldly items again. K.C is coming up to help us unload the big stuff into our two bedroom apartment which should be just enough to keep the five of us comfortable for a a few months. Ellie and Boots may end up snuggling together in the baby's crib for the time being but they are not strangers to confined spaces. I promise to post pictures of the adventure.

Also, Johnny has some pics from Kristen's wedding - he's still working on the video and should be done soon!

One more thing...

Well, Richelle had an ultrasound a couple of weeks ago. Everything is great - by all measures the little girl is healthy. It was a pretty routine event, until the technician measured the baby's head. At first all Richelle and the technician could see was the top of the skull. But after a few seconds the baby slowly titled her head back and stared straight up at the wand - just as she did at the first ultrasound (see the June 2nd post)! Well, that surprised even the technician who had never seen this type of behavior before. Anyway, this is a hopeful sign since being comfortable with the camera is a good trait to have in this family - around every corner lurks some type of recording device at at the Knudsen compound. Heck, I bet there's at least 52 hours of Richelle and K.C. doing dishes after dinner.
