4 days old

We had to take Aidrian to the Dr to test her Bili level (jaundice). Since I actually took a shower and put mascara on, I thought I'd take a couple pics with my babe.

Dr thinks she looks great! She weighs 6 lbs 10 oz now. I love her in this bright pink!

Pre-K Graduation

Kaylin's Pre-K graduation was this morning. Grandma took Ethan. Here's Kaylin getting her award with Ms. Rebecca. Singing in line with her friends...
Having a picnic with her favorite friends and teacher.

3 days old

After her first bath...look at that hair! Aunt Angie and Lily came to visit today. Lily loved playing with Ethan while her mom held Aidrian. (look at those cheeks!) They went swimming in the pool today once Kaylin came home from school...
I wanted to get out, so I took Aidrian in the stroller for a short visit to the pool. She loved it!

All ready to come home~ all in pink! :) Mom so happy she is coming home!!!!

Mother's Day!

I had a great Mother's Day! Church was nice, our friends spoke and they were awesome talks...and it was a lot of fun, I was asked to be on a Mother Mystery Panel where they picked 6 moms, hid them behind a chalk board with a sheet and would ask them questions--kind of like The Dating Game, but with moms? We did it in Jr and Sr. Primary. It was cute, when I answered one question (yes, into the dreaded microphone so I sounded like a kid from Jr. Primary...) Kaylin said to her teacher, "I think that's my mom!" Then the reveal: Mystery Mom #3 Come show yourself, Kaylin squealed, "Mommy!' We got a cute potted plant (bummer, no chocolate) and I realized this was my last week at church being pregnant and having only 2 kids!!!

After church we went down to Angie and Andrew's house. I had to get a pic with my wonderful "doting" husband who always has the best intentions...even if they don't work out. :) He woke up at 6:45 (we have church at 8:30 AM!!!) to clean up and make me breakfast...BUT he fell asleep on the couch till Ethan woke him up. By that time it was too late to do anything but get ready and eat cold cereal. Rats!

It was great to be with Ang and Mom this afternoon. We got to talk and watch the kids play too cute together while the men finished the meal and did the dishes. We had a yummy dinner and the Hayes' made us homemade cheesecake icecream topped with strawberries!

The most wonderful Grandma and 3/15 grandkids...It was such a beautiful day, so we spent more time outside than in. My kids got some bubbles from our Swim party and insisted on bringing them. It was fun because it was windy so they hardly needed to blow! Lily loved the bubbles, here's a pic of them blowing them to her.
Monday we are sharing Mother's Day with Brad and Vicki, so I'll post some pics of that too.

**Just pause the music to hear the video--but all you'll hear is us yelping and cheering...



Lily gets so excited whenever she sees Ethan. She just started walking so Ethan wanted her to walk to him. It was so cute! The first time she did it, she wrapped her little arms around his neck. I think this was the 3rd time. For the rest of the day she'd constantly look for him and then squeal and laugh when she saw him.

Swim Party!

We went to our friend Brooklyn's b-day party at the pool today. Got some cute shots of the kids and of course the beached whale...

Girls Day Out!

Today after my Dr. appt (which went really well, I'm to a 3 and still have next Friday as the date!) Grandma Clarke watched Ethan for the rest of the day, and I got to out to lunch with Britt Butler and then I went to pick up Kaylin from school to then meet up with Britt and Savannah.

Here's Kaylin at the fountain... The Britt's...

37 weeks, almost 38....

Me and Kaylin. The sun was pretty bright and super hot, so this is best one we got! I was sweating like crazy!!! Kaylin and Savannah.

37 weeks

So I went to the Dr. on Friday. My blood pressure was 140/90 but since I'll deliver in 2 weeks, he think it's not an issue. Phew! Also, I was measuring small (duh) and he was worried my amniotic fluid was low, so he wanted to do an ultrasound. It was fun to see her so big! She measure 6 lbs 2 oz, was kicking like crazy, and had her hands up by her face. So these are the best profile shots. Her forehead is on the right, then it goes down to her nose and pouty lips. Can you see it?

Anyway, my amniotic fluid was fine and there was nothing to worry about. I go back next Friday and then get induced the next Friday! It really is a miracle everything is going so well!!!
