Flat Stanley's big day out



So in an effort to be the best aunt and uncle in the world, we spent our day yesterday in downtown Atlanta showing Flat Stanley the sights. I must admit, one of the funniest things was when we showed up at Turner Field a security guard stopped us just to chat and said that was literally the 10th Flat Stanley he had seen this week! I don't know if this is the time of the year that teachers use Flat Stanley, but it was quite amusing. The most touching picture (to this VERY hormonal pregnant woman) was when I took Flat Stanley to Adam's soccer game today and tried to get a few guys in uniform together for a picture, and the whole team wanted in it. What great friends/teammates we have.

An update on the pregnancy front: I can officially say 10 days or less!!!!! They are going to induce me on the 18th if he doesn't come before then! I'm hoping he'll make an appearance sooner, especially with all of the walking I did yesterday with Stanley.

Random observation/question:
While we were downtown, we saw a mailman J walking. Doesn't it make it super bad because they are a federal employee? Also, if you hit a mailman with a car does that constitute a federal offense since they are a federal employee? Have I mentioned that being pregnant makes you dumber and really makes you ponder questions like this?
