Taylen loves to water the lawn. So that was our 4th of July afternoon activity. Exciting, I know. She likes to squirt the brown grass, and if you're not careful she'll nail you in the back when you're not paying attention. And then she laughs and laughs. It's pretty funny. Until you realize your cell phone is in your hand.

4th OF JULY!!

We went to our community bbq on the 4th. This was our first outing with Ryah, and she did great! At the bbq there were water slides, a rock wall,

lots of food, snow cones (which Taylen ate all day), a dj, face painting, relay races, and all sorts of fun things. Brad's parents and siblings came up and hung out, and Taylen had a great time.

Grandma hard at work :)

Grandpa and the girls watching tv...

39 Weeks

So I just got back from another doctor's appointment and here's the update: I am one centimeter dilated and the baby's head is down and the cervix is soft, but not effaced. My doctor said she wouldn't object to inducing me later in the week, but that she couldn't recommend it with the gusto she would like. So, she basically told me there could be some safety risks, but it was up to me. I told her I would wait. I'm not totally miserable (yet), and I would rather not risk something going wrong. She tried to strip my membranes as best she could, and then told me to come back next monday. So, there ya go. I have a feeling that if the weekend rolls around and I'm still pregnant, I am really not going to be very pleasant to be around :). Hopefully things will just happen on their own before then (for everyone's sake).

Father's Day

Taylen made dad a present in nursery...

Hat friends :)

And some yummy Father's Day Chocolate Pudding...

38 Weeks

So here's the update. I went to the doctor and got checked yesterday. I am not dilated at all, and the baby's head is nowhere near the cervix. Basically she said "good luck and come back next week." So, there ya go. If anything changes, I'll keep you posted. We are definitely on the countdown!

Sacramento County Fair

Aunt Sarah auctioned her sheep off at the fair, so we went to hang out with her.

Taylen and Dad at the fair. Cute kids. Both of them :)

This isn't the fair, but it is funny. Taylen likes giving massages. This is her giving grandpa a back massage...or maybe it's a bum massage...or a bum sniff...you decide.

Mother's Day

Taylen and I wore matching jeans jackets on Mother's Day, and I didn't evn plan it.

After church we went to Nana and Grandpa's and Tay dressed up like a care bear. She is just getting into pretending and dressing up, and it's pretty entertaining.
