the 2 cutest boys I've ever seen

I love my boys, aren't they the cutest?
Thanks Mindy (http://www.mindyyoungphotography.com/index2.php#/home/), they turned out great!

Provo Canyon

We spent the evening with my family, enjoying the last of the fall leaves in Provo Canyon. The weather was perfect and even though a lot of the beautiful fall leaves had already fallen, it was still gorgeous in the mountains. We ate dinner, threw the football, and took walks with Ethan and Austin. So much fun, but so sad that fall will be over soon and the freezing snow will be here before we know it.






Let's hope this is the last picture taken of me while I'm pregnant. I'm due in a week and a half, but crossing my fingers it happens earlier... I think in every other picture I've taken while pregnant I've hidden my belly behind something, but here it is for all to see...

Baby update and Scarecrow Festival

Ethan has been out of school for fall break the last couple of days. It's been nice to have no schedule to follow. I've used the time to try and get some last minute things done in preparation for baby Kylee's arrival. Almost everything is ready, now I'm just waiting for the nursery to get finished (I'll post pictures when it's all done, Adam and Josh have been working hard). I've been having contractions nonstop the last week and a half, but no baby yet. We've almost gone to the hospital on a couple occasions. But for some reason, after 7 hours of contractions every 5 minutes, it came to a halt just as I finished packing my hospital bag.
Today the boys and I took advantage of the beautiful fall weather and went to the Scarecrow Festival. We met up with a few friends who'd decided to go that day too, and had a lot of fun.


Not the greatest picture, but I love Austin's sneaky little smile he makes when he's being silly






Looks like I have a pumpkin under my shirt...

Feeling Crafty

With only 2 1/2 weeks to go til my due date, I've been running around frantically trying to get everything ready for the baby. Adam and his friend have been working on putting up bead board in the nursery (I'll post pictures when it gets finished), buying and washing clothes, cleaning the house, packing my hospital bags, arranging people to take care of the boys while I'm in the hospital, etc. I am not very crafty and have sewn something one time in my life. But I got a sewing machine for Christmas last year and I've been determined to learn how to use it. So my mom came over yesterday and taught me some of the basics of sewing, and helped me sew a blanket and 6 cute burp cloths. And last week a woman from church taught everyone how to make tutus, so I also made one of those. Everything turned out really cute, despite my lack of ability. Just don't look too closely because my seams are not very straight.
