Baby Update

Hello everyone-

I figured that I should probably update you about what is happening with our little papoose. I went to the doctor today and rearranged some of our original plans. I was scheduled to have a C-Section on January 3rd, but for some reason I was having second...and third....and fourth.... thoughts about going through with it. I don't know why, (because I have a great experience with my last one) but it just didn't feel right. So the new plan is- We will wait to see if I go into labor on my own. If I do not have a baby by Friday the 6th my doctor will arrange for me to have a C-Section at the next available surgery time. All is well. We are just playing the waiting game now. It is odd situations like this that make me very glad to know that if I trust in the Lord and follow my gut, everything will always turn out just as it should be. So . . we will have a baby here very soon, just maybe not as soon as we originally expected. Thanks for checking in on us. We are so lucky to have such wonderful family and friends to look after us.

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

This is the turkey that Alexa decorated for school. It sports a real duck wing from her uncle Cody and is wearing a sign that says "Happy Thanksgiving. .Eat beef!" We each wrote what we are thankful for on a feather. It was a very fun project.

Bailey Boo

What is it about my little sugar baby that makes me want to squeeze and love her one minute and set her on the front step with a sign around her that says "Baby For Sale" the next?! I am adoring my sweet 16 month old baby Bailey, but my goodness this girl knows how to find trouble!

Kindergarten Graduation

Alexa is done with kindergarten! She recieved 3 awards- the most in her class! We are so proud of her hard work this year.

Happy Winter!

We have been enjoying a snowy week in Boise. We even got a snow day (no school)! The kids have been having lots of fun, but it boggles me that it takes so long to get everybody dressed to play in the snow. I guess that I shouldn't complain. The day will come too soon when they will be able to do it all themselves. . . . .and then I will be sad. I love being a mom.

It's Autumn Time

Better late than never!!
