Dilating!

Well it's official. I went to the Dr. yesterday and I am dilating early like I have with Ashley and Alice. I am 30 weeks today, but am already dilated to a 1 and 70% effaced. So I guess it is time to take it easy. The goal is to make it to 36 weeks. Ashley was born at 36 and Alice at 37, so I think I can do it again! Wish me luck!

Car Seat

In preparation for the new baby we got out our old car seat to trade in to Babies R Us. I guess it is baby safety month and if your car seat is old enough you just bring it in and get 20 % off a new one. Well since our is 7 years old, and we heard they are starting to check at the hospitals now and won't let you leave if it is too old, we thought we better take advantage of this deal.

Needless to say Alice loved playing with it, she even wanted to be buckled and rocked with her binki and all snuggled with her blankies. I am thinking we should leave the new car seat out until the baby is born so that maybe Alice will be over the car seat obsession when the baby actually gets here.

Labor Day Weekend at The Cabin

We had a great Labor Day weekend. We kicked things off Friday night with a BBQ with some dear friends, the Huish's and the Palmer's. Both have lost daughters to DIPG (Ashley's same tumor). We shared some tears and laughs. We love these families, and can really relate in a way that no others can. We all wish our 3 princesses could have been there with us.

We then enjoyed one of the best football games in a long time.

GO COUGARS!

We then headed to my parent's cabin for some R & R. We had a great time with some wonderful friends, the Pizza's and Bowen's.

We played a little Rock Band!

Go Paul!

Went on a little walk

Nothing like a little smooch while you're walking! Don't look Zack!

Here's Faith trying to help the little ones hold Maverick's lease

And they all loved snuggling with their blankies! So Cute!

Thanks for a wonderful getaway!
