Preparing for baby 5

So we have been doing lots of activities with the kids because the new baby will occupy so much of our time. Eli Dora and I have been making toys out of epoxy. Eventually we will cast stuff in resin. 
We went swimming then took the kiddos to marble slab. Teasa's poo the next day was super lime green. I know that yellow and blue make green. Now I need to investigate where the yellow came from. 
Have you ever seen happier or more eager eyes. 
This is our prediction chart. Kids having fun guessing. 
Bridget and I headed to hospital around 5. But Bridget was told to eat a light snack. We stopped off at a Mediterranean place. At 530 they had live music. 
So here's our funny story. 
We show up to the Mediterranean grill and cafe for a light dinner. Bridget looks over to this guy wearing a White t short and wranglers and Says that guy looks tough. I look over and he's big bald and somewhat tough. No tattoos but carries himself heavy.

There are 4 people in this cafe. But they have a mic. He gets up and puts in a cd and starts singing. He. Is. The. Live. Entertainment. At. 530!

Bridget starts laughing. 

He sang the most pansy songs. 

"Baby I need your lovin, got to have all your lovin"

Then starts country "do you love me do you want to be my friend check yes or no"

He was talented but her opinion went from tough to maybe not so much by his choice of music. 
We tipped him well. He kinda made our night. Live music. Good food.

Virginia Yorktown

We got up and went to Yorktown. They have really made a neat display here. 
They had a very interactive display. Clothes for the kids to get dressed in. 
These are actual rifles from the war. 
This lady was cooking and preparing food the old way. The meat was stored on salt. They then soaked it for a few days. All the pumpkin squash apples were dried. They would soak to rehydrate and then cook or bake. It was really neat. 
Holding up salted pork. 
See the military camp in back?
Muzzle loading demonstration. 
They let us hold the rifle. 
Medical tent. 
Finding eggs. 
Medical school. 
Actual swords. 
Dora was a French soldier
Emmy was a Continental
Eli was a Hessian. 
We went back to the beach afterwards. Again. 
Look at the unicorn sand castle.
