Spring in EskDale

Everything is in bloom so I had to take some pictures.

I had to throw in a few of Aidan, of course.

Fun in the Sun

I've been banished from the kingdom, err.... the living room. We were sitting there and I saw a ginormous spider waltzing across the floor, I promptly freaked out and Cary chased it down and killed it, so now he's in there playing exterminator and I'm in another room. Guess we should stop leaving all the doors to the outside open. Yesterday, Aidan and I hung out at the park with Dan, Melanie, Ethan and Sam

I only took a few pictures since the boys were all over the place.

So I made up for lack of photos by going overboard today on our walk.

You will be tired of looking at my kid by the time you are done reading this post. :)

Belly photo for the week. Blech.

Sunday fun and other things

I had my 33 week appointment yesterday and there is a chance that I have gestational diabetes again. Ugh. I'm currently checking my blood sugars 6-7 x's/ day. So fun. Other than that everything is still going well.

On Sunday, some of the Fabers got together for a little BBQ at Trav and Suzy's place. Rockband took over
Aidan was a fan

Shawn thinking he's a rockin guitar player

Josh, Chad w/ Aidan, and Lucas

Uncle Chad and Aidan

Check out the excitement

Aidan was dancing and clapping along, it was very cute

But then Chad pulled out a real guitar and stole Aidan's attention. He likes that Chad lets him actually play. :)

I love those pants on him. My little baby is growing up on me.

32w 4d

That's how far along I am today and that's how far along I was when I had Aidan. Pretty surreal to think about.
I'll just say that it's a lot easier to feed a baby that size in utero, so we're glad this little girl is still cooking. :)
A couple weeks ago I'll admit I was kind of starting to get panicky since that was about the time I started to have a lot of problems while pregnant with Aidan, but thankfully everything is going fine this time and I really have no reason to worry.

Workin' hard

More signs that Spring is here (or coming!) :)
The boys were out cleaning our back patio

There's one of the rose bushes I planted last fall and that one managed to not die

It's still too cold here to plant anything yet

Although I wouldn't have thought that last week, but it cooled down which is a good thing since they still haven't hooked up our A/C yet.

Oh no, Aidan found some ducks that were sleeping peacefully on the sidewalk

That nap is over

The Simple Things

I've been a slacker with the pictures lately...and pretty much everything else in my life. Sharon, Janille, and Megan came and stayed with us on Thursday night and we had fun hanging out with them and eating at Olive Garden. :)
Aunt Sharon bought Aidan a bath time drum set since Aidan is in a drum phase.

As you can see, he loves it and we don't restrict it for just bathtime either.

Poor Aidan's head. This week he's whacked himself in the head so many times I'm going to start worrying that the kid is going to have brain damage. The lastest episodes were that he was running in the living room, tripped and smacked into the end table corner right above his eyebrow. He had a nice looking goose egg that I managed to not take a picture of.

Then today, I was getting something out of the top shelf in a closet and didn't know that Aidan had come in behind me... my (small) tool box fell off the shelf and hit Aidan on the head. :( I think that time scared him more than hurt. Life is rough when you're a toddler.

I think I gained 10 pounds overnight. Nick called us up yesterday to see if we wanted to meet up with him, Jesse, and Tiffany at the Cheesecake Factory to celebrate Jesse's b-day. We didn't end up going there because there was a 2.5 hr wait, so we went to Olive Garden again because they only had an hour wait. (I'm not complaining about eating there two times in a week!!!) Abby came with us and we had a good time and were there until 9:00 last night. Nick stopped by the Cheesecake Factory afterwards and bought a Lemon Raspberry cheesecake that they brought to our place and so we were eating that at around 10:30.....so yeah. I think I didn't need to do that, but it was SO GOOD!

A Couple More...

We brought the stomach flu back to SLC with us. Yay! Yesterday I wanted someone to just kill me and get it over with. Being this pregnant is uncomfortable enough, and having the stomach flu is no fun either, but the combination of the two was just absolutely miserable. Needless to say, we haven't been doing a whole lot.
So I'll just leave you with a few more pictures from the weekend.

Aidan crashed the end of the bridal shower. ;)

Hanging with grandma

Playing with sticks

Aidan really loves being outside

Here is last weeks picture that I never got around to posting. I'm getting too fat anyway, maybe we'll stop with the pictures. Ha. ;)
