Growing still...


Well, we enjoyed a great 3 day weekend...Neil especially. This is his last week of classes, and then he has finals next week. So he's coming into the home stretch, and couldn't be more excited. We spent the 4th of July here, and my sister Chandi, her family, and my sister Jamie and her husband came over. We live really close to a lake here, and there was a big firework celebration going on, so we were able to watch a great show from our backyard on the 3rd....well, it was actually the cow pasture, but a little manure never hurt anyone, right? Josh and Jamie ended up spending two and half days over here...we had such a great time!!
Chandi and her family are relocating to Logan. Her husband just got a new job, and so they're staying with my parents right now until they can find a place to live in Logan. It'll be so much fun to have them a lot closer, and its been fun spending time with them since they've been here.
Max and Sally FINALLY were able to adopt a baby boy. It's a long, drawn out story, but they are so excited to finally be expanding their family. They've been married for almost 12 years...and been trying to adopt for who knows how many years. We're so excited and happy for them. He's a beautiful baby too!
Our baby is just growing away. I swear over the last two weeks its doubled in size. I started noticing movement just after 16 weeks, but in the last week and half, this baby has become very mobile! Neil was able to feel a small kick, but I think he's still waiting for a good punch! It's so fun to finally be feeling this baby moving around. Although, at times it catches me off guard; its such a STRANGE feeling something turn over INSIDE your belly. I'm about 5 months pregnant right now, and we go in July 15th for the mid-pregnancy ultrasound...wish us luck! The baby has been cooperative so far, so we're hoping there won't be any problems trying to figure the sex out.
Neil and I are leaving for Denver on the 20th, and we're so excited! It'll be fun to get out of this little town for a while, and we're looking for to some good times with mauma, nonie, HA, Andy, AND sally!:) We'll stop in SLC and stay with Cami for the weekend, so it will be fun to get to know Josh some more and see the boys! Well, life is good....and we hope you are all doing well!!

Hey you are looking pregnant now! It seriously is the strangest feeling having someone moving inside you. It's so hard to explain to people. I am sad you won't be at the reunion, but have fun in CO. You must tell us as soon as you know what the baby is!

It really is weird isn't it? It's super exciting though. We can't wait to find out about the baby! Let us know asap!
