There's the man himself! We had a BLAST seeing Josh Turner. He's an awesome entertainer. He sang every song we wanted to hear and sounded great.

 This is Lincoln's library & museum. Lets just say despite the trend that most museums are always low on funds, i think Lincoln's museum is rolling in $$$. It's amazing!

 Our hotel was about 2 blocks from all the Lincoln stuff...so we walked all over springfield scoping it out. We might've fit in a cold stone creamery stop as well :) It rained a bit in the afternoon but cleared up by the concert.

 We ate dinner at the Chesapeake Seafood House. The restaurant is set in a 15 room mansion built in 1850. It was a very pretty setting and tasty cuisine too!

 

Cowboys boots on...ready for Josh Turner!

 33 weeks and feeling good. Starting to feel kinda massive too though!

 Steel Magnolias opened for Josh. They were okay. We only knew like 2 songs so we were ready to them to be done!

 There he is. We had pretty decent seats actually. It was a big field surrounded by bleachers...so preggers opted for a bleacher seat rather than trudging through the 6 inches of mud in the field. Had I not been 8 mths preggo maybe i would've tried out the field but..we were happy to be mud-free. It was funny to see all the girls in high heels/flip flops sinking in the mud! Josh  was awesome. I'd like to see him again sometime (when i'm not pregnant) and be able to get closer.

 I think going to this concert solidifies that Evie will be a country girl. And like history (and/or Lincoln). I mean she's visited Lincoln's home in the womb...must be fostering a strong connection!

 Lincoln's Springfield home. Only house he ever owned...they lived there for 17 years while he practiced law.

 They have a whole block of houses restored to make the street look as it did when the Lincoln's lived there. We saw this lil' robin took up residence there too!

This is the most photographed view of Lincoln's house. Unfortunately the scaffolding kinda takes away from it, but it's really neat to see.

St. Louis skyline! I don't think we'll be back to this city for a longg time!
     Gabe did great at our freinds' house. They did a great job of wearing him out! He and Caleb (their 2 yr old son) played really cute together. Gabe didn't have any accidents (i was worried) and slept fine! Thanks so much Adam & Bri!! On top of watching Gabe they also had us over for a BBQ when we went to pick up Gabe. They're amazing!
    I had a dr. appt this morning. Everything is going well. Good strong heartbeat. Good blood pressure reading.  Next appt I'll be 36 weeks and that's when they'll check Evie's position and give us a better idea if were having a repeat c-section or not. Looks like about 6ish weeks left...we can't wait to meet her!
