This is a hectic time, I have hardly been near the computer and very little baby related is happening. This is good, as 26 weeks is a good time for no baby related news at all.
Rob is preparing for a June in which he'll be away from St. Louis for all but about 5 nights in the entire month. He is presenting at 2 conferences in 3 weeks, the first of which is coming up this weekend in Chicago. He will spend 2 weeks researching in Chicago, then I will go up to meet him for a drive to Notre Dame where he'll present again and then we return to St. Louis where Rob hangs out and does laundry for 2 days then flies off to NYC for research. I will be meeting him in NYC for the second week of his trip. His days have been filled with writing and complaining about writing and begging people around him to never allow him to try to present at 2 conferences so close together.
We each had friends who married this weekend, so the weekend was full of some good friends, good food, good music, and thankfully very good weather too. I have photos to share, more to add later since everything I have from Jenny and Ned's Saturday wedding are not with me at the moment.
Sunday was Josh and Allison, Rob and Josh are colleages in American Studies. The wedding was at the Botanical Gardens and very beautiful and simple.
The Botanical Garden hosted a Chihuly exhibit last year and were gifted several pieces from generous donors. The most impressive was also the one most unlikely to be taken down, it is monstrously large and hangs above the entrance to the main building leading into the Garden. It is stunning and I have never seen it at night.
The climatron is in the background of this photo, as are a few more Chihuly pieces floating in a pond. It was very picturesque, the photo does not do it justice but here we are just the same...
