Whos' Counting???

Now that I'm at 29 weeks everything from books to articles in magazines say that I should sit down relax and count Peanuts kicks twice a day. All I have to say is HAHAHAHAHA because this kid never stops moving. In fact, when I don't feel him move for 15 minutes I get scared and worry that something has gone terribly wrong, but nothing has he just got stuck or something. Honestly, my stomach looks like some SCI-fi show because there is always a head, elbow, or knee sticking out in some un-usual way.

It is because of this "count your kicks" that I want to hear your stories. Tell me about your kids and the difference between them even in the womb and just how active they were. It'll make me feel much better to know that others have children that we completely hyper and active before birth and turned out to be completely chill kiddos.

New Blog

My good friend Audra Baird just started a Jewelry blog business. There is a link to her site on the left. I think this stuff is the cutest and that you would all LOVE the stuff. Take a look!!! The holidays are coming up, and she does custom work and will ship.

Autumn Weather

I love this time of year. It always makes me want to read Anne of Green Gables and fly to Prince Edwards Island and watch all the beautiful trees change colors and drink hot cider. But in Idaho you hardly get to see the leaves change because it gets so cold so fast. I noticed it on Friday driving down to Idaho Falls. I am truly blessed to be able to see such majestic beauty. In Idaho, it also rains a lot this time of year (because it is still, thank goodness, to warm to snow).

But I love the rain as well and woke up early this morning to make cinnamon rolls for conference and just spend a little time online while listening to the rain outside. I LOVE that Jordan put on this blog update list thingy that shows us when our friends update their blogs. It's really nice!!! And this morning I saw that our friends Rich and Audra updated theirs.
