38 Weeks

I am ready for this little one to join our family. We are all getting really excited and are now playing the waiting game.
It is also sitting REALLY low and killing me every time I move. The Dr says that it has a little more to drop, but I'm kinda thinking that the Dr doesn't know what he is talking about because I AM IN PAIN. I can't handle it getting any lower plus I am pretty sure if it got any lower it would just fall out.
Then it doesn't help that I walked up and down our 100 stairs a million times cleaning the house and doing some squats wiping down mirrors and walls, now my legs are feeling the workout. Talk about not wanting to move and do anything at all.
Anyways we are excited and can't wait to know what our little one will bring into our home.

Rough Times

We have been having some some stress in our home lately. Luckily I think for the time being it is settled down a bit.
First there was talk of layoffs with Dan's work.
Then he actually got the pink slip.
Trying to find new jobs that could start as soon as possible.
Wishing I could be nearer my sisters to help them with whatever and through whatever they need.
We then went camping with the hope of having to leave early to have a baby (our insurance was ending). That didn't happen, so we stayed longer.
Dealing with little girls throwing major tantrums.
Dan's parents having a major forest fire near their home and maybe getting evacuated.
Wondering what to do with the upcoming end of our lease.

Finally we found out that we were going to be able to keep our job for a while longer. What a great reliever it was to know that we have a job AND insurance. It is such a blessing to not have to stress over these things when there is going to be change going on in our home.
Through it all I have realized that I am good with whatever may come.

Delta

After camping we spent a few days at my parents house. The crazies had a blast playing with cousins, running around outside with temps not as scorching, and swimming.
We didn't bring swimsuits, so the kids got to swim in their clothes. They thought that was kinda funny.
It started with three...


Then we got another one...


And another...


And another...


Ty was so funny diving into the pool...

We didn't do much while there, just some good old country living. We came home on Wednesday. and like usual it was nice to be home. The crazies are already talking about going back in the next couple weeks.

Reunion Time

Thursday we packed up and headed North. We got to Mesquite and took a break for awhile because I was having some good back pain. After eating and taking it easy we decided to come back home (just in case) and try again the next morning if nothing was going on. Friday morning we left and finally made it to our destination. When we got there we set up our tent and stuff, hung out for a while, and then we made some yummy pizza dinner thing.
We camped until Sunday and were very blessed to have some nice weather.

We had a lot of fun and I even hula hooped with my big fat belly. It is a lot harder than you might think.
Dan had some good relaxing time (which he needed).


Here are all the grandkids with Nana and Papa.


It was really good to see everyone and I'm sad that it doesn't get to happen more often.

Fathers Day

Thank you for making them smile.
Thank you for making them laugh.
Thank you for giving them the things that they need.
Thank you for giving me the most beautiful girls EVER!!!

We love you so very much!


Happy Fathers Day!

And a Happy Fathers Day to my awesome Daddy and my pop-in-law.

Anniversary

Today marks 7 years that I have been married to my man! We have had plenty of great times and plenty of crazy times. Our anniversaries are becoming less and less romantic, but I'm ok with that. As long as we are happily together and can still have a few dates every once in awhile. We were able to go out to eat a couple of days ago, so that is always a good thing.
Dan I love you so much. I have loved being with you for all this time and I'm grateful for all that you do.

Happy Happy

**Ty picked me to go on her date with her. We didn't really do much, but she was in such a great mood today. She made me laugh so much and I love that.
**We are all done with baby stuff. The only things that need to be completed are to put up the crib, but we aren't going to do that for awhile (more on that later), and if we have a boy we need some boy stuff.
**We went to U-Swirl for some much wanted ice cream. YUMMY!!!!

Today

Our day was full of craziness today. But through it all there was a lot of happiness.

Our baby is healthy and going strong and is still in my belly.
We went grocery shopping--that means we have a job for the time being.
Brandy was extremely nice to watch the crazies for us.
Which meant that Dan and I could go on a date! I love when we can get out. By ourselves.

Todays Happiness

These crazies might make me go a little insane sometimes, but they truly make me happy!


So does this guy!


I also had enough energy to make sugar cookies and a yummy dinner. And that always helps with making everyone else happy.

Today

I wasn't in the best of moods today, but I did find happiness in the little nap that I was able to get.
