A more updated picture.

Me (21 weeks pregnant with Baby Carr III), Mari (two months away from two), and Jake (two months away four).

Jake and Mari help James put together a shed!

Jake was "reading" the directions:)

Mari did actually help, she was exhausted from helping so much. I just didn't get a good picture of her helping as I was working on a paper.

New Orleans (Saturday night and Sunday)

New Orleans at night, taken along the river walk near our hotel.

Jake and Mari really liked the trollies!

Mari did not want to go to sleep. Finally, after we all laughed at her antics long enough, she at least quit crying.

The next morning, Jackson Square and Cafe Du Monde beignets.

The Aquarium of the Americas.

You can see more of Baby Carr number three sticking out in the picture above and below. I can feel s/he moving quite a bit now and it is not really comfortable to carry Mari on top of him/her but she doesn't understand. At one point Jake was really lagging behind and I threatened to carry him and he said no, I don't want to hurt the baby. I felt really bad for him (James was carrying Mari and I was just going to switch with him and there really is NO way I can carry Jake) as he obviously was tired of walking, but he was more worried about hurting me and the baby. He finally agreed to ride in the stroller and was content there most of the time, Mari not so much.

Jake liked looking at the sharks and below I took his, James' and Mari's picture in the shark jaws.

They both loved the "Nemo" tank that had "Dori" fish and "Nemo" fish.

James petting the rays.

Jake and Mari having fun on the indoor play equipment at the aquarium.

Mari "petting" the (nurse) shark.

At this point you can see Mari had enough so we headed home.

Jake really liked the Lake Ponchatrain Causeway (24ish mile long bridge).

Taking a nap for part of the way home!
