Memorial Weekend

We had a fun weekend hiking, playing, and decorating a cake. Yes I did go hiking at 38 weeks. I had hiked Donut Falls before so I knew it was a short easy hike. Too bad it didn't make me go into labor. Here are a few pictures.

Donut Falls are behind us. Savannah didn't want to pose for the picture.

Daddy and Savannah posing. Savannah wouldn't smile.

Donut Falls - there is a round hole if you look close where the water disappears into and then appears again further down the rocks.

This is the tinkerbell cake I made for Sabrina's birthday. It was inspired by Sophie's cake.

Cute Girl


So Savannah doesn't usually take naps at all any more. Just on rare occasion. We this is the sight I came home to on Sunday after doing visiting teaching interviews. Her dad had gone into the spare bedroom and laid down on the air mattress (we had set it up for a visitor a couple of weeks ago and they didn't end up staying with us and we haven't put it down) to read because it is cooler in that room than in the master bedroom and Savannah brought her dried pears into the room and crawled up on the bed and ate some dried pears and ended up falling asleep while eating pears beside her dad. Sometimes I wish she would still take a nap because she gets aweful cranky, but then we suffer because she won't go to bed until 11pm. So there are trade offs.

Almost Done


We are now actually 38 weeks but this was the last picture I took. So close enough. We have two weeks until our due date and we hope he doesn't wait that long to make his appearance. But family history is not on our side. He will probably be late, but I can keep hoping.

Victory!

On Friday Mitchell took his second actuarial exam (FM). Well half way through his exam he wasn't feeling so good about the test. Three hours after he began he still didn't feel good about the test, the test ended and up popped on the screen "Congratulations!" Yeah he passed! He was thoroughly surprised. The test was very hard. He has taken it before and he said this one was harder. But he was actually prepared this time and good thing he was. We are very proud of him and very excited for the possibilities this opens up for us.
