It's really spring!
Before we went to the hospital it was Jax's first t-ball game! Now, I LOVE t-ball; it's a riot and the kids are just so cute! Jax's team is the Zebras (how funny is that! The kids picked the name) and they have the bright slime green shirts, as Jaxton calls them. They play on the fields behind the Olympic Oval out in Kearns.
It was about what you could expect for t-ball; all the kids run to wherever the ball is, nobody remembers to run to first base after they hit; sometimes the kid hitting the ball would then chase the ball into the outfield. It was a scream! The weather wasn't too bad, a little windy, a little crisp, but nice.
Jax loves t-ball, he gets right out there, hits the ball, he chases the ball. It's so fun to see!
It was pretty interesting to sit there at the ballpark. It hit me when a plane flew over head on its way to SL International that I've spent a lot of Saturdays, in Salt Lake, at a ballpark, with the planes flying overhead. Sometimes it was blistering hot, sometimes it was very cold, but it was always fun! It just seemed to me an odd sort of symmtery that as child I watched my dad at the ballpark and now I'm 31 years old and I'm still at the ballpark on a Saturday with planes flying low overhead and now I'm watching my son play ball. Ever since we've moved here, both Dad and I have been struck with the fact that he spent the first part of his life within blocks of where I'm raising my family now. Sometimes it's a strange old life.
Anyhow, that's what we did yesterday. Obviously, there's no baby news and at this point I don't expect anything to happen until Wednesday, right on schedule! So, my blogger friends, make sure you check in with us Wednesday morning! I promise to update and post pictures as soon as I can. Until then, enjoy this gorgeous weather and get outside! Love you all!

Another uncomfortable night
It has been nice being off work, though. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely LOVE my job and I miss being there with all my good friends (and I'm not just saying that because you guys read this blog!) and I miss taking care of people. But I didn't realize how much I needed this time just to be. I can sleep in (somewhat), I can putter around the house when I need to and just make sure everything's ready to bring baby home.
Yesterday was kind of a runaround day; me and Hayden went to Nephi and had lunch at Gramma Phyllis's, went to the doctor (why, I don't know, she tells me the same things every time I see her) and I was so tired when we got home. It was fun to only have Hayden with me. Hayden was so cute with Gramma Julie and the rest of the family. Today it was nice to not really have a lot to do; just putter. Boy, it's seemed like a long week though. I know it's dragging on because I'm just waiting for next Wednesday, but I can't help it!
Anywho, you guys all know I'll keep you posted :D

Monday night musings...
I think sometime over the weekend Baby Boy has shifted his position. I noticed it Sunday morning when I got up, that he didn't seem as high as before. I've certainly been a little more comfortable the last couple days. And I've had to pee more! Maybe he has dropped! I thought about that yesterday, so today I did lots of last minute things so that JUST in case I do happen to go into labor, I'm ready. The only thing I haven't done is pack overnight bags for the boys; but that's on my list of chores for tomorrow!
Tomorrow I go see my doctor, too. For the last time! If I don't go into labor before, at least at this point I only have 9 days left! I don't know if it's being off work or the baby shifting position or a combination of both, but I really feel a lot better today than I've felt in many days.
Now I'm just relaxin', watchin' the Jazz on the TiVo, and playing on my laptop. It's been a good day and it was a good weekend :D Easter egg hunting in Nephi, a BBQ on the patio and watching the final round of the Masters on TV. Now if only the Jazz can pull off a victory......

Blogging on a Friday
Anyways, enough wallowing. Not much is going on; baby is still growing and growing, but staying put. I go to the doctor again on Tuesday and we'll see what's happening, but I'm betting on nothing. I'm ready for the little peanut to arrive, but I know he'll get here when he's ready. For now, he's just content with stretching and kicking and getting the hiccups and making Mommy uncomfortable!
It's going to be a busy weekend, I think. I have a few things to do tomorrow and I want to start on my newest scrapbook project! My friend Deb at work showed me the cutest thing that her mom made for her little boy. It's an ABC book made with pictures of him and their family and it was so adorable that now I want to make one for my boys. I need to get birthday presents wrapped and then Sunday we're going to Nephi for Gram and Gramps' birthday.
Anywho, now it's 11:30 and I think I'm going to bed. I'm really tired! Good night friends :D
