Well, here we are at Abilene RV Park in Ablilene, Texas..... Not the most beautiful RV Park, but it's OK.... near Jason, Karla and Kaila and that's what counts!
We arrived following a 10 hour drive and were pretty much wiped out... at least I was. Danny did another great job of getting the Fifth Wheel set up and everything level.... check out the picture of the level!
If you are familiar with Abilene, you'll know that there aren't many tall trees, so we feel very fortunate to find a full hook up site next to a tall tree. We don't have cable for the TV, but as you can tell, we do have wireless WiFi.
After getting everything hooked up and things situated, we headed for Jason and Karla's home to see them. They are in the waiting mode..... Karla is sooooo ready to deliver Baby Girl or "Gertrude" as Danny has nicknamed her since they won't tell us her name until she's born.
Abuelo's was calling our names, so we headed there to eat dinner together. In the picture, Kaila is singing, "I love you, you love me, we're a happy family...." she is such a loving little girl and thinks the sun rises and sets in her parents! She will kiss and hug "Baby Sister" now, and let's hope she continues to do so after she is born. In the next picture, you'll see what a cute expectant mom Karla is! Baby girl is all out front and from behind, Karla doesn't even look pregnant! She's really uncomfortable now.... lots of pressure. BUT, she is always a happy camper! I really admire and love her sweet positive attitude.
Once we finished dinner, we headed back across town to their home. They enjoyed opening gifts... especially Kaila who tore into her presents with gusto! I think she enjoys the unwrapping more than the gifts.
Saturday we shopped for groceries and had Jason, Karla and Kaila join us for a swim in the park's pool and a steak dinner. Found out that the Fifth Wheel doesn't like the air conditioner and the microwave both going full blast.... tripped the breaker! Since we wanted baked potatoes in just a few minutes, we turned off the air during the cook time. There was a very nice breeze blowing, so we didn't suffer much.
After dinner, Jason and Karla went home and Kaila spent her first night with us! What fun it was to give her a bath and read to her before she went to sleep. She did GREAT! Slept all night without one whimper for Mom or Dad!
Today is Sunday and we're headed back to their house after resting here in the Fifth Wheel after services and lunch with them. Karla's parents should be arriving soon and then tomorrow BABY GIRL will be born with a C-section at noon! YAY! Can't wait to meet her!
