One more week of school and I am so excited and dreading it at the same time. I'm looking forward to lazy mornings, lounging with a book by a pool (or river), doing whatever we want to do, whenever we want to do it. I'm NOT looking forward to being hugely pregnant on hot days, and trying to keep my house clean with 4 kids running around. I definitely think the good outweighs the bad. 5 more days!
Here's a peak at what's been keeping us busy: it's completely random, (most of my posts seem that way)

Malia played volleyball for the first time. She isn't much for trying new things, but she turned out to be really good. She had great coaches and She improved a ton. She loves to volley (pepper) in the front yard with the family.
Jacob played little league baseball with Brent as an assistant coach.  Let me tell you, Jacob must have a combination of his dad, and his Grandpa Dean in him, because this kid is going to be good.  He is SO competitive and just loves the game.  He started pitching this  year and is a great pitcher. He is sad he's not playing this summer (Cole's turn)

                                               

                                     Just a random shot on our drive home....
                                       

Malia has been taking piano lessons and is really enjoying it.  It's strange for me to not have to ask her to practice.  She just does it.  This picture is from her last piano recital (not the greatest pic, sorry)
I've been busy with a vinyl project I did for a friend.  I did some rooms in her husbands pediatric dentist office.  I think they turned out really cute.


Jacob and Brent went on a cool field trip last week to the Wallace Mines.  They mine silver and are still mining today.  I thought this picture was very indiana jones (ish)
We took the kids to the Shriners Circus and the elephants were a big hit.

My pregnancy is going well. I am starting to feel big and slow. (10 more weeks!)  I'm still managing to walk my 4 mile loop a few times a week and still trying to show my face at the gym a few days a week.  But i'm definitely slowing down.  This little guy is SO active.  We can't wait until he's here!
