The Baby's Due Date

Today I am officially at 40 weeks. Nothing yet. She is still in there kicking and having a party. She will not settle "down". Matt took me on a 5 mile walk last night (It was my choice and I was feeling good). The only think the long walk did for me was make my glutes yell at me all night and this morning. The baby room is ready for her and so are we. I am running out of things to do. I do not have much to keep my mind off of the fact that she is not here yet.

Matt and I did celebrate last night by going out for a burger because he finished his last undergraduate class. Because we do not have a job yet and he feels there are some more classes that can benefit him, he is going to take an econ class and a mechanical engineering graduate class this semester. Luckily heThis will also give him the chacne to keep his BYU job. He is going to continue his internship at BD medical in Sandy until they do not need him anymore. As of right now he will go up there twice a week until the end of September/October?. He will also work at his BYU job 3 times a week. I will be at home being a mom. I plan on coaching again at Provo High. That will start up in November. My baby is going to be the water girl. Well, maybe she would be better off as the mascot. I can dress her up as a bulldog. I plan on starting her young with a backetball. :)

That is our life right now. We will keep you posted with pictures.

This morning there was some excitement in front of our apartment. While i was taking Matt to work this morning I saw a hotair balloon in the air. When i got home 10 minutes later it had landed in front of the apartments across the street from us. Everyone was out in their PJs taking pictures. It was great excitement.

Cascade Springs

Matt and I celebrated our 1 year anniversary July 26. We went up to Cascade Springs which is up American Fork canyon. I never did take pictures when we were up there a year and a half ago. This is where Matt proposed. In fact it was on the below bridge where it all started. It is beautiful there.









Baby Shower #2

Janny Hortin, Matt's Sister, threw me a great family baby shower. She did an awesome job. There was sooo much food and lots of quilting. This is everyone who came. Matt's mom also helped with bringing the quilting supplies.










Thank you to everyone who came. The gifts were awesome. Our baby girl will love the quilt. Even if there are a few extra long strans of yarn on the back (Janny :).).
