August Fun...

Bry had the great idea to take the kids to the Farm up in Lehi, UT last tuesday. We went last year with some friends and haven't been since. Presley hadn't forgotten about it though and was so excited about the thought of getting to ride a pony. She was so brave and hopped right on up on the pony about 2 loops around she started looking over her shoulder at the horse behind her and every time she looked back her expression was more and more concerned. Finally she started crying and Bry walked beside her and asked her what was going on. Here is her reply "That horse is making a mad face at me". She got super worried that the horse was mad, so he reassured and the ride was soon over and she was fine. Knox didn't care to ride and he really enjoyed the animals as long as he didn't have to touch them and they didn't touch him. So here are some pics from out eventful evening.

Pres on the Pony before the meltdown...

Having fun pretending to milk a cow...or should I say watering, that is what they had in there.

9 months Preggo !

Alright so before you get into this I have a warning...this post will contain a lot of self pity and whining...So here we are on the 8th day of August and I have been absolutely miserable for about 3 weeks. The hot weather has not helped me out with my swelling at all. I have been to the hospital 3 times with false labor stuff. The last time I was sure we were gonna have a baby, but no I was sent home and given a lecture the next day by my not so wonderful OB. I am now 36 weeks and have met my Dr. a total of 3 times. The practice I go to is so busy. He is always delivering babies. I can't stand the head nurse. Everytime I talk with them about my concerns they think I am an idiot. I mean really I am on my 3rd kid and I kind of know what is going on with my body, but whatever. I started the pregnancy with a blood pressure of 90/60. I hit 138/93 the other day, which was really high but have consistantly been sitting at about 138/82...still high right, but I am an idiot for being concerned. I have now put on 62 lbs ! I know I am no skinny, cute belly preggo, but come on ! And if I go to the c-section date of 9-1-09...I will be 39 weeks and 2 days pregnant. I have never been pregnant longer than 38 weeks ! Plus the Dr. thinks that she will be 9lbs !! Suggestions please on how to get things moving ! I know the usuals, but anyone had anything that worked for them ?
