July Pics

I was thinking how it would be nice if I gave a little synopsis of what we actually did each month, but the truth is I can hardly remember what we did last weekend.  Sorry.  Maybe in the future when my brain starts working again...like next August. : )  For now, I have just cute pics of the girls to share (mostly for the all the grandparents to ogle over--it's a word, I looked it up!)

Driving the bus that Papa made for them.

Dancing.  Natalie loves to wear dresses and look "like a princess."

Washing cars in the backyard.

Houston, We Are Go for Launch!

Today marks 37 weeks and the official "okay to go."  While the doctor thinks I will go pretty close to my due date because of my past history, I still can't wrap my head around the fact that I'm about to have another baby in only three weeks roughly!  If Dusty is correct on his prediction of August 17th, then it's only two weeks away!  I can tell it's getting snug for the Little Nudger as he/she is stretching a lot.  I keep having to pat that little foot back in.  Everything is going well.  I pretty much look the same as I did with the other two pregnancies.  Can't wait to share the big news with everyone.  Please pray for a quick and smooth delivery and for a healthy mom and baby.

If you want, leave a comment with your guess for the arrival date of the Little Nudger.

Who says something as simple as a box can't be hours of fun?  The toilet box was our best moving box and was thoroughly enjoyed by the girls when it was emptied.

Summer= popsicles!

Sunday morning heading to church:

More fun with boxes.

More house pics to come later, but yes, our kitchen is painted "Tiger eye" orange. : )

At the flower gardens of CSU.

My little mountain goats.  They will climb anything and thankfully are pretty good at it.

This one especially loves to challenge tree heights and feel "big" lately.

A picture of Natalie accessorizing with a bracelet to go with her outfit. : )

 We are a 10 minute walk from Whole Foods now which I love.  Natalie loves to ride her pedal-free bike while I push Maggie in the stroller.  We load up the back and the extra seat with groceries, leaving Maggie just enough room.  The store is so close to home that I hate to drive and I'm thankful for the walk.  We try to leave as early as possible in the mornings but sometimes the walk home has still been a little warm this summer.  Maggie sometimes can't help but fall asleep.
