1 CM

As of last Thursday I was still 1cm and 30-50% effaced. Come on Logan..we are so excited to see you! Don't you wanna come out yet!!??

Preschool for my Baby

Last Friday Paul and I went to enroll Austin in preschool. I am excited about this but also very edgy about it considering right now I feel like he is my baby. He is beyond excited to go to school on Monday. When we took him to see his school he said, before we were inside, "This is my school! This is my school!". It made my heart pump fast to think that he really wants to go to school and I kinda wanna keep him home a little more. I guess this is a part of letting go a little at a time. I can't wait to see how thrilled he is on Monday when we take him there for his first day. We drove by the school yesterday and Austin said, "There's my school Mommy, there it is!!!" He is so proud. I love that little guy so much.

WAP

Today we went to the Wild Animal Park to have some good family time. The best thing was that we had an AWESOME day! Our kids got along, they didn't argue, fight with each other, cry, etc. It was truly blissful. We had a lot of fun at Dino Mountain seeing all the dinosaurs. They were super neat and Kristen and Austin really enjoyed watching them and collecting the stamps for each one. After that we went on to see the Condors, which was amazing. They were up close and spreading their wings (9ft. wingspan). Then we went on to the Elephants then the tram ride and off to lunch. It was such a wonderful day!

Snorgels

Today Kristen, Austin and I were making balloon people. Kristen was drawing a nose for her balloon and she said, "Look mommy I even made snorgels." When I looked up at her drawing I realized that "snorgels" are nostrils!

Dilating!

I just started having some contractions last night which was pretty exciting. I had my 38 week checkup today and I checked in being 1cm dilated and 25% effaced! Wahoo..so excited to have some dilation!

36 Weeks Pregnant

So here I am 36 weeks pregnant. The belly just gets bigger! I don't think I posted that we are having a boy, Logan Scott. We are super, duper, excited to meet him!

Mr. Incredible

This is Mr. Incredible. (Yes he is in a Power Rangers costume, but this IS Mr. Incredible) Austin loves this costume. He calls it his Incredible costume and will wear it even when it is 100 degrees outside. I have to hide it sometimes on really hot days so that he won't want to put it on and sweat to death. He loves how his chest muscles pop out and how strong he looks being Mr. Incredible.

Kristen's First Day of 4 Year Old Preschool

Kristen started her second year of preschool and she is loving it! Her teacher, Ms. Lynda of the Busy Bees, is a perfect fit for Kristen. She makes Kristen feel very loved and welcome everyday. Kristen loves to bring things to Ms. Lynda, such as beautiful necklaces made from all white pipe cleaners, flowers that are picked straight from our flower beds, and very creative pictures that she has drawn. The best thing about it is that Ms. Lynda makes Kristen feel like these are the best gifts she has received in a long time! It just melts my heart to see how happy this makes Kristen.

I am really excited about this year and the growth that will be happening in my sweet girl. It's so fun to pick her up from school and hear her talk (when she wants to) about what she did at school that day.

The only bummer about Kristen going to school is that Austin really, really wants to be a Busy Bee too. He wants to go to school with Kristen so badly. Soon enough Buddy!
