Sunny September

Yesterday was our primary program.  It was Maisie's last and Eddie's first.  They all sang beautifully and testified that the scriptures are true in word and song.  (Ryan had to join the picture.  He slept nicely in Austin's arms the entire time.)

 Saturday was the General Women's Broadcast.  We watched from my room and ate treats.  Austin kept all the boys out, made us dinner and cleaned it all up.  What a lovely time spent feeling the spirit and understanding more deeply our divine potential as daughters of God and defenders of correct principles.

 I never took a really good picture of the poster Maddie made for her Star Student week.  She did most of the coloring, and she also chose the pictures.

Austin was home on Friday.  After working most of the day on the second section of sprinklers, he came and found us in the shade of the swing set.  His boys were sure glad he stopped for a bit to be by them.

 Wednesday night was YW Evening in Excellence.  I am busting out of everything these days.

The evening was spiritually filling.  Meg presented her value experience of making the sacrament more meaningful coupled with her testimony of the atonement.  She was lovely.

 Also on Wednesday, my nice friends threw me a baby diaper shower at the park.  I am set for at least the first couple of months worth of diapers.  Aren't they nice?

 Ryan and Eddie found these costimes and are now ready for Halloween.  Check that off my huge to-do list pre baby.

 During family prayer one morning I snapped this picture.  We all look half dead, but we are alive and well in our testimonies of the importance of regualy family scripture study and prayer.

 My morning shadow.

 Sunday we made a baby chain.  Each day we take off another link until our baby comes!
