It's almost time!

-
This morning we had some lab work done to determine if the baby's lungs were mature enough for him to be delivered tomorrow. We just spoke to the Dr. who told us that our little boy is ready to go! We are so excited, nervous, and even a little scared. We can't wait to meet this little boy in person! This is a 3-D ultra sound picture that was taken this morning. Looks like he has chubby little cheeks. His arm is covering up the left side of his face. Based on the measurements taken in the ultra sound our little guy is estimated to weigh 7 pounds already!!! We are so thankful that this pregnancy has gone smoothly and that I have been able to enjoy the time home with my family and close to friends. What a different experience it has been compared to being pregnant with Jacy. We appreciate all of you "well-wishers" who have called to let us know that you are thinking about us! Please continue to keep us in your thoughts and prayers for a smooth delivery tomorrow.
Love,
Jody

    Jody - I am so excited for you! You look absolutely darling all prego. I didn't get to see you last time all the way to delivery so it is fun to see your baby bump. Good luck tomorrow and can't wait to see the little guy! Get lots of sleep tonight - if you can. :)

Native Drums

For the past 6 weeks Jayne's class (all the 4th and 5th graders) at school have been working with a resident artist learning about the  Tlingit (KLING kit), the Haida (HIGH duh) and the Tsimshian (SIM she ann) native tribes of Southeast Alaska. They have learned how to introduce themselves in the native tongue. They have learned about the art and form styles used in totems and the meanings behind the symbols. They even had the opportunity to make a deer skin drum (Goo-jow), including soaking the deer skin and stretching it over the wood drum frame and letting it set until it hardened. Once it was completely dry they got to draw their chosen native symbol on the drum and the paint it. They look SO COOL! They even made their own drum stick using a stick, fabric, buck leather, and deer tendon, which was used as the string to tie it all together. This past week the students performed for the rest of the school, singing a song/chant in the native tongue. It is a welcome message...

Whale Watching

This weekend was BEAUTIFUL weather!!!  We have all been feeling a little under the weather, but we have made sure to get outside a little each day.  On Saturday we were fortunate enough to be downtown by the cruise ships docks and caught a few glimpses of a humpback whale!  When they bubble feed you can see a ring of bubble start to surface on the water and then they come straight up the center with open mouths to feed.  It is so cool to see them!  They are really big!  Sunday afternoon was a nice drive to all the great spots that we love to view the ocean from.  It was a gorgeous sunset!  Someday I still can't believe that we live here!!!
