A quick update

This week has been pretty busy for us. Here are some of the highlights.



This is at 35.5 weeks. I look like there is a basketball stuffed up my shirt. Everybody always asks me when she dropped and I keep telling them that she has been that low for my entire pregnancy. Also, yesterday we were at costco eating the samples and I actually saw a little kid staring, pointing at me and then going to his mom so she could look at me as well. And, whenever I sat down several people told me- You know, you can't have that baby here or something like that. It's all I can do to politely smile and make a nice comment. Little do they know that I am really thinking- No duh or You think that you are being funny/original, but little do you know that you are like the 50 millionth person to have said something like that to me.


I am in the process of making the crib set for the baby. This is the bedskirt that I finished the other day. I am really happy with it. I am so close to being done with the quilt and wanted to post a picture, but then I thought that I would just wait a day or two until it is all done. It looks so cute though.

I recently recieved these as a gift and I thought that they were so adorable. People have been very kind to us. We thought that these would be especially perfect for when we visit Grandma and Grandpa.
Lastly, Kyle got a new calling- again. He is now the 3rd counselor in the Elder's Quorum?? Presidency. Yes, in our ward there are 3 counselors. He will do such a great job and will definitely be busier than ever.
Oh- we went to the Doctor on Wednesday and she says that things are progressing along very well. She also thinks that the baby will be coming early. We have actually thought that for a while. I am almost done with all of my projects and then she is more than welcome to come!

Love the swimsuit!! So cute! Your bed skirt is adorable. Makes me wish I knew how to sew. I was thinking about it and don't make a boppy. I'm going to send you one of mine. With hope I won’t need two again. It was so nice to talk to you the other day!

You are such a fun girl! You should really wear a shirt that says something like, "I know that I look like I'm about ready to pop...please don't talk to me about it!" :)

Amanda you are so cute. You look so good for being over 35 weeks. I love your green dress!!! You did a great job on the bedskirt and I can't wait to see the quilt. I'll be so happy for you when this little girl gets here and then you can have so much fun with her. Good luck with everything.

You're looking good! Rob said that you think you're going to beat us getting her out! That's fine with me I still have a few things to take care of before I'd like her to come out! Send me your e-mail address so I can add you to our blog. r2bingham@gmail.com
