Well, it's official #1

Well, we're having a baby within a week... so I thought I would need to get caught up on several things... like my blog before we did.  Let me start with the baby.  I've been diagnosed with polyhydramnios, which is extra amniotic fluid in the sac.  They want to induce me early so that it doesn't cause the placenta to rupture.  He's healthy, big and boy does he kick.  I just hope that his lungs are ready to be outside instead of in.  We'll see I guess.  I am excited to be done being pregnant though.  Just saying.

Ada and Sam had their last T-ball game.  They liked it, but I think they mostly liked hitting the ball.  We've got bats, maybe I can remember how to pitch well enough to help them out with that part at home. 



We had lots of cousins here for a while... Marg's family, John's family, and we now have Amy's family here.  We also had Anne and Great-Grandma and Great-Grandpa Robertson here from Arizona again.  They came because Grandpa Jay's brother, Bert, gave into his cancer and they were here for the funeral.  I love talking to them.  Judy has a gift at asking just the right questions to get Grandma to story tell.  Did you know that she wears blue and white because that was the color of her school uniform growing up... so she just has worn it ever since.  I could see Kate doing that.   Fun fact to remember.... Grandma told me that Ada was her great-grandbaby #50... and now our new baby will be her great-grandbaby #94 and they are both 94 years old this year. 

The #94s

 
Our nephew, Joey turned 5 too.  He's such a sweet kid... he loves to be involved in anything you're doing.  Loves to pretend, and I LOVE that he smiles every single time he sees me. 
 
We've had the Pass of all Passes forever now, and honestly we've been awful at using them this summer.  I wanted to use them at least once on Seven Peaks water park, so we went.  Jer took the day off after Pioneer Day and we went swimming.  Evelyn was so confident in the water with her floaties on... she didn't want my help at all.  The big slides with Jer scared her a little though.  Ada and Sam both LOVE the big slides and talk about which ones they're going to go on next time.  They saw lightning while we were there though, so we all had to get out of the pools and off the slide towers.  When it started raining, we decided to go home.  Poor Rachel though, she waited in line for 3 slides... They told her she was too little for the first two (even though she's 8), and the lightning forced everyone out of line for the 3rd one.

Rhees Family

This is such a fun family.  They're sweet and playful.  It's fun to get to know them and try not to freeze in the cold rain!  It was...
