So here is the last 4 mo. in a nutshell. I need to think backwards when I'm blogging, but I don't, so it goes from April - Jan. If you really care to look. Hope you are all doing well out there. Thanks for your love and support. Hopefully we'll have a baby next post. I am 37 weeks and 6 days, so it's coming soon. I think we have finally decided to name her Katelyn Grace. We are so excited to introduce her to our family. In the mean time, enjoy the pics.April... I can't believe this month is already over. Wow!! We had a great Easter, and loved listening to conference. It was truly inspirational and an answer to my prayers. The underlying message for me was how important being a mother is, and I need to step it up.
The pic of the alligator was a visitor on our street. We often have gators in our pond but this one was getting a little frisky and walking the streets, our street in particular, so it was taken out very soon after this pic was taken. It measured 9' 5". YIKES! The weather has turned so warm, and the only relief is the pool. I have a feeling we'll be there a lot this summer. This is Lahklyn and London
sharing in our fun at the pool.
Steve celebrated his 30th birthday. Holy cow!! I remember my Dad turning 30. I can't believe it happened to my husband. I surprised him with a little party at the park. We ate sub sandwiches, played a huge game of kick ball, and a game of water balloon toss. I don't know about the adults, but the kids had a blast. I am so grateful for Steve. He is an amazing husband and father. I love him and am so proud of his accomplishments. He is doing so well in school, and I think he's enjoying it too. I am so amazed at his ability to manage his time between, family, church and school. He has recently started teaching Gospel Doctrine and does a great job. I love his lessons. He has been awesome this pregnancy and even came home one night with a new bottle of lotion just to rub my feet. He knows what I like. :)
And the last pics are the girls doing our hair last Sunday evening. Leah did Steve's and Sydney did mine. Random but fun, I love my family!
Looks like you guys have been up to a lot of fun things lately. It was so much fun seeing you and the kids when you came for a visit. Can't wait to see a picture of the baby when she arrives!
ReplyDeleteOk, that alligator really creeps me out. I am so glad to hear it is gone. When I come in May I wouldn't dare go for a walk outside. You all look so happy and so dang cute! It makes me so excited to come out for the baby and to see all of you. Only 2 more weeks from this Friday. I hope everything goes great with the birth of Katelyn Grace. We are so excited to meet her.

I was wondering if you would get an updated post out of the way before the baby comes! Looks like you are really ready now...lol, if only you could convince Steve! Well, it looks like you guys have had a fun filled couple of months and got some super cute pics! Y'know, when i took my trip to Ut, i really thought i wouldn't want to come back...but leaving made me realize that i really love it here!
