Special Fun

When my c-section was schedule for o'dark thirty on Wednesday, I told Aaron we were getting a hotel room with his travel points & taking the kids swimming, so we wouldn't have to wake up at 2am to get the hospital on time. Then it got moved to Monday afternoon...except I'd already told the kids we were taking them swimming! So we kept the hotel room (duh....it's free!) and brought the kids this afternoon to go swimming. They had a BLAST!!!

I LOVE his face here!

Grandpa and Grandma W came Saturday evening. Before church this morning, Daddy got a great picture of the kids with Grandma!!
I'm not holding my breath for a good night's sleep tonight--I can't take Benedryl after midnight so I'm sure I'll be up itching all night long! For so many reasons, I can't wait for this little guy to be OUT!!!

Summer Time!

This is what we'll be doing this summer.....

Watching magnificent storms (I still haven't convinced Anna that thunder is awesome!)

Exercising at the track. Anna actually ran 1/2 a mile!!!!! She walked a few steps here and there, but she ran most of it...at once! It was amazing. Jacob and I cheered her on all the way around. Aaron has started training for the annual 1/2 marathon!

Jacob doesn't understand why Daddy keeps running past him! But he soon found something to distract him.

My garden is growing by leaps and bounds! I can't wait to start eating from it! This year, I've got 2 tomato plants, zucchini, 4 pepper plants, red onions, green onions, green beans, sugar snap peas, and cilantro. Everything I planted is growing this year! And I hope I've left enough room for my zucchini this time!!!

And playing in the pool. I knew Anna would love it, but I wasn't so sure about Jacob. Oh yeah...he LOVES it. They got in right after it was filled up and stayed in until Jacob's lips were turning blue. Of course, after the storm last night blew the cover off, it got a little dirty and that was NOT acceptable with Little Miss Priss! Good grief.

It should be a fun summer with lots of outside playing! :)
