Some people have complained about the angle and quality of these pics, and I just want to say it's not very easy to do this by yourself, so you'll have to deal with what you get. :P This was taken today, just a few minutes ago. It is clear that Dagmar is more cramped than she has been, but she's still moving a lot, and is still quite forceful about it.

In other news, our Independence Day Grill Out was a success, despite being on the 5th of July. I had a lot of fun and met some Americans I hadn't met before, and ate good food. What more could you ask for? I did a little experiment since we have a ton of frozen cranberries and I didn't know what to do with them. After I made my delicious fresh-squeezed lemonade, I put some cranberries in, just floating in it. I wasn't sure it would change the flavor at all, but I thought at the very least it would keep the lemonade cool a bit longer since the cranberries were frozen. As it happens, the lemonade started to turn pinkish, and did take on a bit of cranberry flavor. It was quite popular, I must say. I'll be doing that again! Mmmm.
