We do. I think we picked over 12 pounds of blueberries yesterday in the hot and sticky and miserable weather. Despite the unbearable temp and humidity, I think the boys had fun. Caleb especially enjoyed eating the blueberries fresh off the bush and ate enough to dye his bottom blue later on. We returned home to find our A/C broken, once again. I thought for sure I was going to die of heat exhaustion. It was 81 degrees inside and climbing. Seems we've been having a bit of an unlucky streak lately. Anyway, the craving for blueberry pie outweighed the need to be cool and I somehow managed to bake us up one dang good pie for dessert. It was just what I needed after visiting the doctor for the third time in two days. Everyone's fine (just a couple of ear infections and a rash), the air conditioner is fixed, our house is almost finished being painted and it looks fabulous, the bills are paid and we have enough money to make it through another pay period and we have enough blueberries to last us quite sometime. That is, if I get them canned and frozen before they start molding. The race is on.
YOu are such a great mom to take your kids to pick blueberries when you are pregnant. You deserve a break where you can just sit on the couch and read a book. I hope you get breaks every once in a while!
I heard how you picked blueberries with Caleb on your hip...how do you do it! YOU are going to be just fine with those two new babies. This proves it! Let's see a picture of the newly painted house! Grandma Stout
