Summer is HERE!!!!!!!!!!

All I can say is, it's about time!!! I'm so glad summer finally seems to have arrived. I'm even OK with the uncomfortably hot weather we've had the past few days. Our yard is really shaping up. Matt and Michael laid LOTS of rock last weekend! We've got a nice pathway from the front to the back now. What a terrific husband and brother-in-law I have:)

We had a really fun 4th of July weekend. My mom was able to come up and spend it with us since Ron and Alex were gone for a family reunion back in South Dakota, they were missed. It was great to have my mom all to myself:) She helped me pick out some plants and came home and planted them for me! I really appreciate her expertise in the yard! We also got to spend quite a bit of time with Griffin, which Grandma loved. We were also lucky to have Blair, Ashley, my Grandparents, Uncle Tom, Aunt Jen, Zack, Lindsay and her new boyfriend to celebrate the fourth with! Yummy food and REALLY yummy desserts!!

We did make a trip to the hospital on Tuesday. Everything ended up being fine, but we were a little worried for a bit. However, they monitored Pistachio and said his heartbeat was perfect and they couldn't believe what an active little guy he was:) We also found out I am 50% effaced and 1 cm dilated. This doesn't really mean much at this point, I could stay that way for the next 6 weeks. We have started seeing our doctor every week now, a nice reassurance for both of us! It's hard to believe we'll be meeting this little guy in just over a month!

Hope everyone is staying cool!!
