a week long date

We sent Lily down to New Harmony to visit her grandparents and family for a week because we thought little Lucy Rose would come this week. Well, the week is up Friday, and it's Wednesday night. Other than some more false labor, Lucy isn't showing any signs of coming until her big sister is back.

It's been hard having her gone, but we know she's having a blast with all her cousins and her grandparents. 

We've called this week, "the calm before the storm" especially where Jordan had a 3 day weekend for the 4th. We've had so much fun together going to the dollar theater, watching the stadium of fire fireworks, walking to Burger King at 10 pm at night for their $1 chicken sandwhiches, 3 picnics, playing blockus at the duck pond, getting and keeping the house clean and just doing fun things together. However, we are ready for our munchkin back. I would trade a clean house for her fun personality any day.

 Neither of us love parades enough to get there at the crack of dawn to get decent seats, so we decided to instead walk up to Bridal Vale Falls and play Frisbee on the morning of the 4th instead. Let's just say Jordan was not impressed by my Frisbee skills.

38 wks + 5 days pregnant. I am starting to get a lot of "wow, you are ready to POP!" comments along with the waddling comments.

As much as we love Lily, this 4th of July had to be one our best days ever. We spontaneously went to a movie at the dollar theater, because for the first time in 2 years we could do something sponaneious. Then we headed out and sat out on Denny's lawn to watch the Stadium of Fire's fireworks while devouring our new favorite chips - Kettle Cooked Sharp Cheddar. Amazing. 

After words we walked down to Burger King to get $1 chicken sandwiches because they were advertised during the dollar movie and since I'm pregnant, they sounded good. And you can't go to a fast food joint without getting french fries, even if it is 11 pm.  Jordan walked and I waddled all around downtown Provo that night hand in hand - Like I said, one of my favorite days ever. Thank you Justin and AJ for giving us this time alone.
