puppy and Will's birthday

We got a puppy! Her name is Pepper. She is a border collie/blue heeler mix. She wandered off a bit too much once and our neighbors two streets down took good care of her. She was missing for 3 days when Will said to me, "Mom I hear Pepper." Clark went over to their house and asked if they had seen a black and white dog. They brought Pepper to the door and said they were so glad we found her. They gave her all her newborn immunizations and dewormer. We were joking we need to have her wander off again so they can get her spayed. She has been living in the garage lately until Clark can finish our fence in the backyard.
Will turned 5 last month! He still loves sports, especially basketball. He requested a basketball cake for his birthday. He is such a sweet boy. He wanted all of his local cousins to come to his party so we had almost 30 people at our house for cake and ice cream. Lately he has been into "adventures" and pirates and swords and ships. He will be starting kindergarten in the fall and it makes us all a little sad.
Here I am, almost 36 weeks along. Next week I go to the doctor for one more ultrasound to make sure things are ready for delivery. I have been measuring 2 weeks ahead of shedule so the baby may come early. I am crossing my fingers, but my past tells me I will probably go overdue. I can't wait to meet this little one!
