Summer days are drifting away ...

Do you remember being a kid and feeling like summer takes FOREVER to come and then it's gone in a flash? That's how this summer has been for us. It feels like it is over already. We have been super busy and it doesn't leave much time for fun. Here are a few highlights from the last two weeks and hopefully we will have more to post about before Mikey starts school in September. Did I say school? Oh my gosh! (don't worry it's just preschool, but still ... crazy!)
  • We went to a pool party at the Scera Pool for my parent's ward. We discovered that Mikey and Lexi could go on the big waterslide if we went with them, so we headed up the slide. There was a huge lineup so when I got to the bottom I told Lexi we couldn't go again ... she was mad. Mike got to the bottom with Mikey and they rushed back up to try to go again. Well with only a few people in front of them the pool party ended and they had to come back down. Mikey was NOT happy.
  • Luckily, we had a pool party at Aunt Irene's house the next day so we consoled Mikey with that fact. We got to visit with Christie and Thomas and their crew before they headed back to California. It's fun that all our kids get along so well.
  • Not much else happened except that late last week Teresa (Mike's sister) decided to try to go into labor early and has been hospitalized for 6 days so far. At least it looks like her little boy Vance is going to stay in their for a little while longer. But she is on hospital bedrest and isn't enjoying it very much. We are keeping her and Vance in our prayers. She is almost 34 weeks so every day she hangs on is a very good thing right now.

In light of all the aunties and babies discussion ... my kids have become very interested in us having a baby. Needless to say we need to get car, insurance, and income situations figured out before we can embark on that journey so in case you were wondering no we are not expecting and we're not trying quite yet ... regardless of what you might hear my children say. Lexi was severely disappointed to learn that Julie is having a baby boy and now she is convinced we are going to be having a little sister for her very soon.

And ... the other day Jasmine was reading an article about getting flat abs and Mikey wanted to know what it was about. She told him it was so her stomach wouldn't be fat any more and Mikey gets all concerned and said "So you don't want your baby any more?" Hahaha.
