We were finally able to get all of the car stuff sorted out! The bank that financed the purchase let us know that they had received the title from the original lender. The state continued to be unhelpful, but the contact person from the bank was VERY helpful and sent the title to us via Fed Ex. Emma and I made a trip to the DMV with our filled out forms. We arrived right at 8 AM when they opened and were out of there with a receipt and temporary registration by 8:20 AM. I really think that being rude must be part of the job requirements for working at the DMV!
August 6 we went to the Kane County Cougars game. We met Dave's family there (the tickets were part of his Father's Day present) and all had a great time. If you are looking for an affordable family outing to a baseball game - definitely check out the minor league teams! Emma and Dave even got to run the bases after the game.
The week of Aug 7 - 14 was spent in Michigan with Dave's family. It was a very relaxing week. We took Emma to the beach several times and she LOVED it! We spent some time checking out the area including New Buffalo, South Haven, and Sagatuck, MI. If you are in the Sagatuck area, make a point of going to the American Spoon store. They have some of the most wonderful jams and jellies!!! They even sell gelato that is to die for too :) Emma and I made a trip to the Curious Kids museum in St. Joseph one day when most everyone else went kayaking and it was definitely worth the trip. There were tons of things for kids to do and Emma had so much fun! We spent one day at Warren Dunes State park in Sawyer, MI and that was lovely. We are seriously considering making this a day trip in future summers.
Today, Peanut and I go for our 20 week check up and ultrasound. We are very excited to find out if Emma is going to have a brother or sister. It's making the day drag by a little bit.....
