I was lying...THIS is the last time you'll see me!

 

So, refer to the blog entry below for all the latest info but I thought I'd put some better pictures on from today. Aaaahhh, I feel much better now!

Yikes! - yup there's a baby in there!

Sorry about the scary picture but this is the last you'll be seeing of me on this blog before you see me with a cute little baby in my arms!  I thought I'd take a moment to document as this is the largest I've ever been - and hopefully ever will be! Please note that there is a shadow!

Anyway, I'm due to give an update as I have been completely out of the loop for the last couple of weeks due to computer troubles.  I'm 37.5 weeks along, dialated to almost a 4 and 50% effaced if that means anything to you! I'm have quite a few painful contractions but nothing that says "here I come!".

This week has been crazzzzyy!  Eric took a day off work to get ready for baby and we worked all day and cleaned out and up, moved rooms around and got the crib up as well as got ready for a garage sale that will be tomorrow. Then yesterday, a bunch of angels showed up on my doorstep and came and deep cleaned my whole house!!!  I am so thrilled/happy/exstatic that I've just been walking around, taking in the moment!  Then last night, was Ashley's baby shower which I was in charge of.  It went really well and we had a great turn out!  So, today was pricing for the garage sale and early tomorrow morning, we'll be setting up.  Needless to say, after 9 months of barely surviving, I feel like I've tried to make up for it all in a week!  It's been a good and productive one though.

A trip to Idaho just wouldn't be complete without a cattle drive. Sorry, I'm no pioneer woman when it comes to blogging with witty comments but I thought some of these pics were fun! Everybody has their jobs...for the kids, it's mostly to stay out of the way and get to ride along the way.

This is my adorable niece, Adelle.

Addie and Mom.

My sister Auryn, brother Bryn and wife Sierra, came up from Rexburg to 'help out'.  Mostly just for fun!

Above are Eric, Sierra and Auryn.

Little Miss Maryn LOVES riding as I'm sure you know.  She rode the entire time except for the gathering right at the beginning.  She even trotted this time!

I love this picture of Gracie and Maryn playing in the rocks.

This is Gracie with her brave face on...she tries really hard to not be afraid!

 

If you look closely, you'll see Lane on the four wheeler up front doing the actual work while these lazies roam along at their own pace.

Okay, doing a little more work here.

We caught Caleb sleeping on the job -- only a real Grover can sleep on the back of a horse!

A fence in Kilgore.

After a hard days work!

We just spent a wonderful weekend in Idaho with Eric's family.  These are some pics that Eric took of the kids playing with his dad.  I thought they capture some fun memories!
