Vacation

So I have been so slacking on blogging probably because summer is so busy. So this past week and a half we were able to go on vacation with my family. I never realized how fun my family was until you experience what other people's families are like. So the week started out with 4-days boating, wave running, and lots of relaxing. I have a bunch of pics that I will eventually get to posting. Adding three boys to the family in the last three years has also added a lot of excitement they rigged up a obstacle coarse with the jet skis and even got mom and dad in on the fun. My dad said his only wish is that now that we are all grown that he was ten years younger and had more energy, but I think he did pretty well keeping up with his 20 year old son-in-laws. I was able to ski, knee board, and do some jet skiing. We skied and played til we couldn't anymore then headed for Jackson Hole to go rafting for another four days. We got there and set up camp where we were spoiled with dutch oven food and other fabulous treats. We ran the river everyday multiple times. I have been very blessed in being pregnant there are many times that I forget that I am and I have to remind myself to slow down. I only ran the river once a day after the first day doing it twice. We are starting her young loving extreme sports and the great outdoors. Jackson was so beautiful with all of its pine trees and we could even hear the river from where camp was. We did realize something though that was to much fun for one trip, next year it will be split into two trips and we can't wait. What I love about vacation NO SCHEDULE, sleeping and eating when you want with no interuptions. Thanks mom and dad for taking the time to put the trip together we had a blast and no vacation has been so relaxing and exhausting at the same time we can't wait to do it again next year with our little addition to the fam.

4th of July

So for the 4th we went to Deweyville which will always be home regardless of where my parents are. They have a breakfast, parade, and a candy drop every year it is always good to see everyone and Nic and Kyle have made it a tradition to join us for the festivities. We then came home, had some wonderful food and headed for the fireworks. I realized when I was uploading pics that all I have are pics of the fireworks and Nic has all the ones with people in them, dumb I know. I prefer not to spend my holidays packing a camera or being behind one. We had a ton of fun and when I get the rest of the pics I will post them.

27 weeks

So we had another Dr. appt today and boy has she grown. We had the first ultrasound done since the one we had about five weeks ago although she is looking more human like all the time. She is now 16 inches long and 2.2 lbs. I am growing more everyday and have noticed in the last two weeks I have grown more than I ever have, I knew it would come eventually. She is measuring exact with her dates which I guess is better that changing the due date to later. I just wanted to let anyone who is interested know that I will be having two showers in Aug one on the 16th and one on the 15th I think I am sure of the one on the 16th. It will be held in Deweyville and will be friends and family. We would like to send out invites so if you leave me your address we will get you an invite.

26 weeks and the first shower

So Matt and I are now over 6 1/2 months pregnant and we can't believe it summer is flying very quickly and we are looking forward to July and our vacations as well as the time when our little girl will arrive. At work this week we had a shower due to so many scheduling conflicts later in the summer and it was alot of fun just to get all of the advice from the people that have been moms. So here are some pics of our fun.

The long overdue prego pics

So I have been asked by several people if I am even showing and my answer to this is yes or at least I think so. But here is a pic from yesterday at 23 weeks and now you can judge for yourself.

The finished product

So here are a few pics of the finished product minus a few light fixtures and rain gutters which will get finished sometime in the near future. The project this week is sod. I am hoping that soon we will be out of projects but I don't think that will happen.

Our first outfit

So Matt and I went shopping last night and to this point we have not bought any clothes for our little one well I found an outfit we had to have.
