JULY

This picture is from my cousin's wedding about a month ago. I am not really the biggest fan of myself in this one but Grant and Chris more than make up for it. Look at those smiles!

Well, today is my last day to be pregnant for awhile. I go in tomorrow to be induced. I had forgotten how miserable you feel at the end and I am glad to have this part behind me for awhile.

I wanted to do a little catch up on this last month before the focus changes tomorrow. I don't have all the pictures I would like to accompany this post but it will just have to do I guess.

The month of July was quite a bit less busy for us, well especially for me, but it still went by really fast.

We had Chris's 10 year HS reunion that I actually really enjoyed going to. Chris went to school with really nice friendly people and it was fun to meet and visit with them.

The 4th of July festivities were alot of fun as usual. I didn't quite enjoy all of it nearly as much as I usually do but I assume that had a little something to do with the fact that I was about 8 months pregnant. :) Chris got to go in and watch the Stadium of Fire show this year with his sister and nieces. Grant and I hung out with my family at our usual picnicing spot. Chris sponsored the annual Gary's to Grandma's 5K race and we enjoyed breakfast, the Layton parade, and barbequing with the Barlows.

Other fun activities this month were more swimming for Grant and I at Surf N Swim and Cherry Hill. Running through the sprinklers with cousins. A trip to the zoo for Grant with the Barlow family and then a Bees baseball game for all of us. A campout at Grandma and Grandpa Barlows house that yes, just involved Chris and Grant and not myself. Maybe I'll try that next summer. Visits with friends. And a little relaxing.

The biggest event for us recently was that the basement here at Julie's house was finished enough to get us moved down there. There are a few little things to finish but for the most part it is all done and so nice. There are 3 bedrooms, a bathroom, a little kitchenette area, a living room and a storage room. It is so comfortable and nice to have a little more space. Julie has been a miracle worker in getting it ready and us moved before the baby came. I'll have to get some pictures up once things are a little more settled.

Grant loves being the center of attention.
