A few life updates...

So I am down to 18 days until my due date. I was seen yesterday and I am dilated to 3cm and about 80% effaced- so I don't think I will make it to my actual due date. Last night I had about 10 contractions that were lasting up to a minute and slowly getting more intense, but after laying down and relaxing they eased up, so false alarm. I realized I still haven't taken many preggo pics, so here are a few at 37 wks.

37 Weeks and counting... please excuse the fake smile!

We are still getting the house in order and putting pictures up, so here are a few pics of our house, without pics on walls. We area absolutely loving our new place and after having the house professionally sprayed haven't had to deal with beetles, crickets, cockroaches etc... which has been wonderful!

The Formal Living/Dining Room

Our Master

The Family Room

It has been extremely hot here- up to 118, but we have been spending time near water or inside. Ken had his friend Spencer visiting from Alaska and they tubed the Salt River twice and we went to Canyon lake to lounge on the water as well. Here are a few pics of them tubing the salt. It has since cooled about 10 degrees, but it doesn't feel much different, especially being pregnant.

Kyson has been growing fast and talking more and more. He loves to help load and unload the dishwasher, loves playing with his cousins and grandma. He is adjusting well to the new house and sleeping well in his own room. I am refinishing a bed frame for him that I picked up off of craigslist for $50. When it's done I will post some pics of that too. We have been trying to get lots of Kyson time in before the baby arrives, and trying to explain his baby sister is in mommy's tummy. He is so sweet- he will lay his head on my belly and even kiss my tummy. We think he is going to be a helpful and fun big brother to his little sister. Here are a few pics of him lately...
My sister Renee moved here from Boise and we are enjoying living in the same city for the first time in 10 years. We have both always tried to get the other to move to our city, but it finally happened. It's been fun... so thanks Renee for moving here so we can hang out more!

Will post pics after delivery... so excited and ready to have my baby girl!
