Maddie isn't the only thing growing around here

My mom came and visited us this spring for the 20 week ultrasound. While she was here she helped plant our garden, and we have been reaping the benefits. I have complained a little about being pregnant during this unusually hot summer; however, the fresh produce that we have been eating more than makes up for it.

So, thanks for taking care of us, mom.

Bronco Pride

In Idaho, Bronco football is usually centered around the Boise State Broncos. On Sunday, however, our house was supporting the Denver Broncos for the first game of the season and Manning's debut. The game did not disappoint.

The Minnow Slayer

Mark went fly fishing with a friend last weekend in Island Park. He learned quickly and by the end of the day the pair could be mistaken for the brothers from A River Runs Through It. Here is Brad Pitt.

The evidence is in the catch; the minnow slayer.

Empathy Belly?

Mark and I went to a birthing class at the hospital last weekend. The nurse teaching the class had an empathy belly for the fathers to wear. I am still not convinced that it is really the same, but Mark informed me that it was heavier than it looked and that I wouldn't understand. Oh sure!
Nonetheless, it was very exciting, and both Mark and I were ready to check-in to our room and get the baby girl here.
Not much longer. Here WE are at 32 weeks.

28 Weeks

I went to Colorado for four weeks during July and had to get a picture of my belly before I left. Here is the little lady at 28 weeks.
