Lunar New Year Cheers
 Today is the Lunar New Year, so yesterday we went on an excursion to Columbus Park in Chinatown for the flower and plant market.
Felix selected this pig planter, replete with now mildly wilted flowers, which was for sale since this is, indeed the year of the pig (or boar) and since his sibling is due in the pig year, it seemed like a nice opportunity to mention the impending baby again to him (this is something I still do regularly, with little response) and he was nonplussed as always, but obsessed with the flowers... and of course the pig.
Our excursion turned less festive with our next stop, which was for a "Family Size" container of this fabulous loquat-based cough syrup I have been using for a zillion years. (I see it comes with an indication seek a doctor's counsel before taking it if one is pregnant, but fortunately I am - knock wood - not the person who is currently hacking away in the house.)
In other news, the countdown is on for school notifications and everyone I know is highly on edge. I would probably be more so if I weren't having a late-pregnancy "issue" that is painful but not significant. If anyone has any tips about how to do with pelvic bone pain, I'm taking them.
Happy new year to all.
