The Fun Starts Here

Summer is over and Fall is just beginning! I absolutely love everything about Fall, especially because things start really getting busy. But honestly, that's how I like it! Here's what's been going on and what's to come...
 
 Monday, we find out what we are having and we're so excited!! Is it a boy or a girl? I don't know, you tell us! I will be 20 weeks pregnant this Sunday and half way there! I'm not feeling sick anymore, but I do still feel VERY hot and I hate it. I need the weather to cool off even more. I already have a little swelling, but that comes from chasing Tayen everywhere. Like I've said before, this pregnancy is much different than the last. Taking it a day at a time is all I can really do at this point. But we are over the moon about it! Can't wait!
 
Last Thursday, I started up with choir again. The Idaho Falls Choralaires is an all women's choir that I've been singing with for a couple years now and I really love it. I NEED the choir aspect in my life especially now that I'm not in school anymore. It's such a nice break for me and I look forward to singing my heart out every week. I'm so grateful I have choir opportunities here in town and it's only a bonus that I have a little adult interaction for a change! It's always a little weird singing Christmas music this early though, but that's what happens when you're in preparation for a Christmas concert! So grateful for the music in my life!
 
 
Next week we will be heading to Ogden for a girls weekend! I'm so excited to have some girl time with no kids! I will miss Tayen terribly though. Sometimes I get mixed feelings leaving him for a couple days and then I think, uh no I think I'd like to shop by myself ha ha. Super excited!
 
I've been primary chorister for about 7 months now and I'm starting to love it! It can be really difficult at times with Tayen because with Che gone, I don't know how he'll be in nursery so I worry about that. It was a little overwhelming at first with this calling, but everything seems to be in order now. This calling is a lot of work, but it's a great experience and super fun. I love those kids. We're just starting preparation for our primary program so things are really getting busy!
 
 Tayen will be 18 months in 5 days! He just started nursery last week and it was a little rough, but I know it will get better in time. I took a couple pictures of him from the last two Sundays. This first picture is of him in the new shirt I bought him. He looks so handsome!
 

 First day of nursery!


Cousin Boston turned two at the end of August and we had a cowboy party! It was so fun and Tayen had a blast! Here's some pictures from that fun day...

 Boston had to show everyone, every present that he got ha ha. He's such a cute kid.
