Cumberland Falls and Cumberland Gap: Wilmore to Durham

View from Cumberland Falls Resort Lodge
It was a long day, we left Wilmore at 7:15am and arrived in Durham just before 8:00pm.  But we had some very cool sights along the way and a different route to enjoy.  We have traveled I-40 too many times so it was nice to drive a new way.  It was so quiet too.  Unfortunately there were many windy roads involved and Jack was the victim, twice.

As I'm laying here on bed rest, I can't stop thinking about having a newborn a my arms. But alas, I'm still at home waiting for this baby to decide to come. My Tuesday appointment showed an elevated blood pressure (same occurred with the other two) and so I spent 2.5 hours at the hospital for monitoring and lab tests. With normal results I was sent home (thank you thank you) on bed rest. This means little to no movement around. Grammy is most affected by this and she's doing an amazing job with Lillian and Jack - in fact, she's doing everything, including taking care of me and the household chores. Wow! The good news is that I've moved on from 2cm (16 days ago) to 4cm. So really, it's up to the babe to realize what a great family and world awaits him on this side :) It could be he/she is waiting for Kyle and I to decide on a good name - suggestions anyone? Here are the first pics of my Lillian May and Jack Robert: Jack joined our family at 10:24...
