Hot!

I don't have any pictures to post but I just wanted to post to let everyone know what we have been up to. Well, I am just getting closer and closer to having this baby. We are now 33 of the 40 weeks into the pregnancy. Emma Kate arrived at 37 weeks and so we are hoping that is the case with this one. It is only 114 degrees today and so our main objective is to stay cool. Emma Kate and I have a group of Mom's and tots that all live in our neighborhood and we get together about 2-3 times a week and swim and have lunch. It makes the days pass very quickly.

Emma Kate is into everything. She is just so fast that it makes it difficult to keep up with her. She is talking up a storm and is constantly asking what something is so she can repeat me. She is in love with babies. She has two babies that she takes care of and then anytime we see a real baby she wants to hug and hold the baby. We will soon see if this is a positive thing or not (she is still learning "gentle"!) She is also getting 4 teeth right now (making 5-8). I think that 2 of them are some molars because they are pretty far back. She is handling it ok. With her first four teeth she ran really high fevers (103) and was miserable. These are taking a while to come in but she is not reacting quite as badly to them.

I have been sewing a lot and trying to get some clothes done for both kids before the baby gets here ( I know soon my time will be filled with much more than sewing). I have been making a fall bishop and Christmas bishop for Emma Kate and coordinating Johnnys for the new baby boy. The next task I want to focus on is their Halloween costumes. I am hoping to put them in some sort of coordinating costumes but I haven't come up with a great idea yet. If you have one please let me know!

Matt is doing well and working a lot. He is getting excited about our little boy arriving and evening up the girl/boy ratio around here. He has been so supportive during this pregnancy (as it has been a much tougher road than the last), God has blessed me tremendously with his love and understanding. That is about it for now. I will try to get some pictures/videos up soon.

love the new background! you found a super cute one. thanks for the update.

do yal have a heat index too? i'd love to know what the heat index is on a 114 day. it's miserable in memphis right now. you truly can't breathe outside because the air is so think. the humidity must be 100% with no rain in sight. i think we're up to 100 today with heat index near 116. i still love summer though! i'd much rather be hot than cold!!!!
