Here it is...
Everyone keeps asking me to post belly pictures. This is not really my thing but I figured what the heck. So here it is, my fully clothed belly at 32 weeks.
I can't believe I still have 8 weeks to go. I delivered Brady and Easton at almost 33 weeks so I kind of feel like I should be done. It is a weird feeling but I am thrilled that everything is going so well with this pregnancy!
And just for fun...here are my cute boys! I love them to pieces!
If they look abused I promise they are not. They are just 2 crazy boys who run everywhere, trip, and loose their balance :)

Crazy Days!
On Saturday Brady and Easton decided to go outside to mow the lawn with "papa". I was upstairs and all the sudden heard the boys screaming and crying. I came running downstairs to find out that they had both been stung by wasps. Oh you would have thought someone had died. It was so traumatic. We googled what to put on it to make the sting go away. Here they are laying on the couch with the paste. Did I mention they had the flu at the same time?!?
Kelsey's boyfriend (who is basically a part of our family) got his mission call last week to Campinas, Brazil. We are so excited for him! He is such a great kid!
Here are the boys eating pizza at the opening of the mission call!
This may look like dirt to you but to us it is a big deal...this is our hole for our HOUSE! They finally dug it and we are so excited!
They are telling us we will be in the middle of November and we are hoping they are right! It should be a fun few months for our family!

Friends Forever...
My good friend Heather was in town from Texas so we planned a get together with a bunch of our high school friends. Usually when we plan this there are at least a few who can't come but this time pretty much everyone made it! It was so fun to get together and hang out for a few hours. Luckily my parents house is huge and the kids played all over. There were 23 kids under the age of 6 and 3 of us are pregnant. Can you say crazy!!! I am lucky to have such great friends new and old! I love these girls to death and I am so glad we still stay in touch and see each other every once in a while.

Summer Fun!
We have had a great summer! I signed the boys up for private swimming lessons. The first few times were horrible. They screamed and cried the whole time and it was so sad. They finally started to get the hang of it and loved it. We would have the same conversation on the way there every day and they were so excited to get their stamps at the end! I am so glad I did it and will be doing it again next year. They can't really swim but they are great at flipping from their tummy to their back and floating. It is great! 
They loved their stamps!
Brady and Easton loved to show off their stamps when we got home so if Austin was at my mom's when we got there Renee would have to get a marker and draw a smiley face on Austin's hand so he had one too. One day all the girls were upstairs cleaning and Ryan was downstairs with the 3 boys. They got into the drawer with the markers and tried to give themselves more stamps! They colored all over themselves and got a little on their clothes. My mom was trying to get them to do "hear no evil, speak no evil, see no evil" She thought it was hilarious. Good thing she has a good sense of humor!
Renee's older kids were at Grandma camp so Renee brought Austin and Summer to my mom's and stayed a few days. We decided to take the little boys bowling and they loved it! It was so fun!
We even let the boys eat dinner there which they thought was pretty cool!
I love these boys! They are so fun and make me laugh all the time! We have loved the summer but we are excited for fall, the cooler weather, and football season!

Relieved...
Thanks to Renee and to all those who wished me a happy birthday! Today started out rough but ended great! Let me explain...
I had a doctor's appointment this morning. I have had a rough time with this pregnancy and have had lots of pain, pressure, and some other issues. I told my doctor about what had been going on and because of my situation last time he decided to check me. I am dilated to a 1 and 50% effaced. No big deal except that I am only 29 weeks and this is exactly when I ended up in the hospital before. He decided to do a test called fetal fibronectin. They did this when I was pregnant with Brady and Easton so I was familiar with it. If the test comes back positive it indicates a good chance you will deliver in the next 2 weeks. It came back positive with the twins. The doctor told me if it was positive today he would admit me to the hospital on observation and give me steroids. You can imagine my horror when he told me this because last time this happened I ended up in the hospital for 3 weeks on the most miserable medication. We waited all day for the results. I went and got a pedicure and went out to lunch with my family. We finally got the call telling me the test came back negative and I don't even have to go on bed rest. They will repeat the test every 2 weeks until 36 weeks and hope it continues to come back negative. Needless to say we were thrilled, it was great news!!
Tonight we went to Ryan's Grandma's house and had a swim/pizza party for me and Kylee! It was a great night surrounded by the people I love most! Thanks to all of my family and especially my mom, sisters, and hubby who made this a special day for me despite all the drama! I love you!
