Baby Update and Silly Story!

BABY UPDATE... Okay, the count down is on! As of yesterday I had two weeks to go until my scheduled induction! You see, my doctor decided to up and go on vacation to Europe and won't be back until the 28th. So if I make it till she gets back, she is going to induce me on the 29th! For now her dad Dr. Glenn is seeing me! She doesn't think I'll make it that far, but I'm perfectly happy to wait that long. Two weeks will fly by, in fact a day has already! NUTS! As of my check up yesterday, I was dilated to a 3 and 80% effaced! And apparently her head basically can't go any lower unless I'm in labor and she's coming out! So we will see, I'm hoping for the 29th! My boys on the other hand want her to come RIGHT NOW!! We are all very excited to see her and cuddle her and love her to pieces!

If you guys want to play that fun game where you take a stab at the date and time of her birth, how much she'll weigh, how long she'll be and whether she'll have hair or not, feel free to guess in the comments. It will be fun to see who's the closest!

Now for the SILLY STORY.... Yesterday I was on the phone and the boys were upstairs being very wild and crazy as boys tend to be, when all of the sudden Taylor comes down to me and says "Mom, if we did something that will make you very angry, will you still love us?"

What kind of response do you have to that? First you think Oh Crap, what the heck did you do?. and then you can't help but laugh at the question, because of course you'll still love them! Just in case you're wondering what it is they did, they pulled off their closet doors. Kids really do say the silliest things! And don't worry, I still love them!

Showered with Love!

Okay, Okay I know that it's been a little bit since I posted, but things have been crazy and under construction around here trying to get ready for our sweet baby Hayleigh to join our family! These are pictures of the boys helping to paint the nursery. I didn't have paint clothes for them so these were our make shift painting outfits! I promise pictures of the finished nursery soon, after I put the finishing touches in there! Also I'll post fun things that we've been up to!
*********
But I thought for now I'd share how spoiled rotten baby Hayleigh and I have been! We truly have been SHOWERED with lots of love...


First my mom, grandma and Aunts put together a family and neighbor shower brunch for me!

It was so nice and the food was delicious! They made these yummy fruit flowers, and lots of other yummy breakfast foods! Then I got a ton of really cute baby things! Thanks guys for being so wonderful and doing that for me!

Next came dinner at California Pizza Kitchen with all my girl friends! Again I got spoiled with lots of fun pink things! We all chatted and enjoyed yummy dinner. It was a great night out! Thanks Mary, Janet and Lisa for putting it together! It was very thoughtful of you!

These were the cute party favors that they put together!*******

and last but not least... My friends Kellie and Brittany in my ward put together a shower to celebrate with friends in the ward!

They had yummy snacks and I had a lot of fun visiting and opening even more cute and girly gifts! Like I said spoiled rotten! Kellie even made this super cute diaper cake! It was a great night, Thank you Kellie and Brittany for doing that for me!

You're the best!

I just wanted to say again THANK YOU, THANK YOU one and all who put together and came to these showers to help celebrate our new arrival, I really appreciate all the love and support I get from each and every one of you! So again a great big THANKS!!!

Hey Mom I Have the Hiccups...

Okay the other day Taylor comes up to me and says...

Taylor: "Hey mom I have the hiccups"
Me: "Sorry sweetie"
Taylor: " So I was just wondering if you could wake up really early in the morning, and sneak into my bedroom, and scare me awake to get rid of them?"
Me: "Sure, but for now why don't you go drink some water!"

Ten minutes later the hiccups were gone! I'm so glad that I didn't have to set my alarm to scare the hiccups out of my son!

Swimming and Summerfest!

Yahoo, It's finally Summertime! At least now it feels like it to us! We got to go swimming for the first time on Friday, and then we went to the Summerfest on Saturday! It was a great start to the summer for us!

Swimming Time!

Aunt Tiffy, Sarah and the Mckee's joined us for a fun filled afternoon at the pool, and the kids thoroughly enjoyed every second! Easton kept saying "It sure is nice to be back at the pool! My kids are little fishes in the summer, so they've been waiting for the day we'd be back at the pool!

I'm not sure who taught Easton how to plug his nose, but this is how he was doing it all day when he was jumping in from the side!












Taylor loved being in the water, his eyes were sore by the end of the day because his goggles weren't up to the task of keeping the water out! That didn't slow him down though! At one point Tiff and I were sitting at the edge of the pool and we'd tried tightening the goggles several times and were unsuccessful. He asked me to try one more time and then went under the water, He came up with a big grin on his face and a thumbs up (because they were working). and Tiff and I couldn't stop laughing because they were filled half way up with water!











It was a great afternoon and I'm looking forward to more fun in the sun!

We're going to the...
Summerfest!!
Again Aunt Tiffy to the rescue as my second set of hands for the Summerfest! On Saturday we went and spent the whole afternoon at the carnival, and man was it HOT! Jordy came with us and We met up with the Ramey clan, and Darla (for a little bit) and played on the rides and enjoyed some snow cones! Then after some serious melting in the heat, we headed back to Aunt Kelly's to cool off and eat before the parade and fireworks!

Parade Time...

We had a good time watching the parade. It was fun to see Jordynn and Aubrey go past. Taylor even caught a shirt from Jordy! Everyone enjoyed yummy treats and good company as we watched! Jeff even caught a tie that he wore the next day for father day!

After the parade we went back to Aunt Kelly's to run around, visit and watch some awesome fireworks! It was a great weekend to start off the summer season! It's always great to spend time with friends and family! A special thanks to Tiff for all your help this weekend I really appreciate it! We love you!

Dino Attack Army!

Taylor put all his favorite dino's in a row, ready for battle against all his other toys! He's so proud of it that we can't touch it!

A Day at the Dentist.

Unfortunately both of the kids needed some cavity bugs fixed after our check up this time. They were both a little apprehensive, but they did really well!
Taylor went first, and after he had the happy gas on for a minute he relaxed quite a bit! I was surprised with how well he did! The only thing he didn't like was the little pinch from the numbing shot! A little while after having the gas on he asked me if people at the hospital use those same breathing things. I told him they don't have happy gas, but that they do use a different kind of mask if they need some extra oxygen. He then responded "Well why don't they just open the window or turn on a fan?" The things kids come up with! Anyway the dentist had to drill him a bit and put a cap on his tooth. He was a champ, and he's happy to show his silver tooth to anyone who wants to see it! Easton was up next and he didn't want the nose breathy thing like his brother, Instead he chose to be on daddy and the dentists lap! They filled two cavities on him. They were so small, he didn't even have to be numbed. After a little fight and some crying, he popped up shouting "that was SO easy!" He's also proud to show off his silver stars! Here they are all done, picking out their prizes! Notice Taylor's numb cheek and lip! That was the one thing that was driving him crazy all afternoon!


Dinosaur Museum with Dino-mite friends!
We had a blast spending some quality time at the museum with the Garner clan! The kids had fun running around, playing in the sand and water, and digging for dino bones with their dino-buddies!


Dinner with friends!

Happy 30th Birthday Janet!!

We went to red Robin to surprise Janet and celebrate her big day. The surprise may have been a little spoiled, but I'm not mentioning names as to not hurt any ones feelings! Some people got picked on enough that night! Those of you who don't like to share, you know who you are! Well the Garner's babysitter was running a little late, (we were all SO MAD :)!) so the menfolk got a little creative with the party hats while we were waiting! Anyway once the birthday girl arrived we had a great time eating yummy food and enjoying great company! Thanks guys for the fun night out. I hope you have a fabulous 30th year Janet!

I hope you enjoyed this post, brought to you by the letter "D"
