A Day Outside

The sun is out!! Yes, it is June, and we have had more cloudy days then I would care to write about. BUT, today was sunny and the kids got to play outside. Lucky for us Marie is in town and snapped some fun pictures of my munchkins outside. Aaron, Melissa, and Noah stopped by today for a visit and the cousins got to play together. I love having them play outside. Fresh air, sunshine, room to run. What could be better.

Marie's Here!!!

Marie flew in Tuesday night. It has been so good to have her here, to visit with and to have her take care of us. She has been fixing our meals, doing our dishes, cleaning up, and playing with the kids. What a great sister I have!!

MARIE'S COMING!!

Very exciting. This next week my sister is coming into town. She will be here for a week to help out and keep me and the kids company. I'm so grateful she is coming, missing work, missing her husband, and staying with us. I'm hoping she won't get too bored sitting around the house for a week, because that is just what we do.

Hyrum Huish

My new nephew. Michael and Laurie had their second little boy on June 4th. They named him Hyrum, still waiting for a middle name. He weighed in at 8lbs 7oz, 21 inches long, strawberry blond hair. Wish I could be there!!

If you want to check out pictures of Michael and Laurie's new little guy, Laurie's sister Meg has posted some on her blog.

Pregnancy Update

30 1/2 weeks and counting. Doctor's Visit today confirmed that I am holding steady, aka, I HAVE NOT started dilating. Very good!! I can officially go off bedrest at 35 weeks, even though I will still be taking it easy. We want this guy to stay put as long as he can!!

Journal

With all my free time I have been typing up my old calendars and planners. Now all the information is consolidated into a binder and you can review what we have been up to the last few years. It has been great to actually realize why my life has been so stressful at times, I can't believe all I have scheduled at different times in our lives. WOW!! It also has made me appreciate all that we have done. Sometimes, Steve and I get down on ourselves for not doing more, it was enlightening to realize we really have done a lot. It also helps me not feel as bad about taking it slow right now. I don't have a choice but I still feel bad that we hardly do anything with our kids or with anyone for that matter. We just hang out at home with our little family. I know that it will change soon enough and we will be busy again.

WEEKS!!!

Look to the side of the blog. We are in the single digits for weeks I have left till I am due!!! Yes, yes, yes!! Every milestone is a step closer. Every time I logged onto my blog I would see so many weeks left, too many weeks left!! Well, now I'm that much closer.
