The end of summer...

We were very sad to see the end of summer come so quickly. I am just so used to having my siblings ready to play whenever I came to visit. It's going to be so different now that they'll all be in school, INCLUDING MY MOM!! ha ha I am so happy and proud of her for going back to school, but it will definitely be a difficult adjustment for us all.
I felt baby girl kick VERY HARD for the first time last week. It was such a great feeling to distinctively know that is was her kicking. We have decided on a name for her, Evelette Diane. We are so excited about this name, Mike was the one who actually came up with it a while back and it just seemed to kinda stick once we for sure knew we were having a girl.
Last week I was lucky enough to spend the whole week at my family's house in Springville. It was the craziest week ever. Tuesday I had an ultrasound double checking the sex, measuring all her different body parts, and checking for any abnormalities. My mom and I went to Pei Wei before my appointment, this is now our favorite place to eat together. :) After that we went shopping at all kinds of different places getting baby clothes and different crafts to start the baby nursery. I always have so much fun with my mom! Wednesday was the 'Girls Day' in Park City. We went to lunch and then went shopping at the outlets. It was such a nice and perfect breezy day for shopping. We got a lot of good deals and a lot of good laughs. (I need to get all the pictures from my mom!) Thursday was not such a fun day for me. My mom took me up to Ogden for my second Root Canal appointment. NOOOO fun laying in a dentist chair for over 3 hours while prego!! My tooth is feeling a lot better thanks to a lot of yummy frozen treats that day :) and I am just so glad that's over with! Friday my mom and I finally were able to start on the nursery and crib stuff! It's turning out to be so cute already, lots more to do but I am getting soo excited about moving into our house and starting this nursery! Later that night my cousin Nicole and her little family Brad and Jett came over to play. It's so nice having them close and being able to see lots more of them! We had lots of fun chatting, ping ponging and playing Phase 10! Saturday I went to Mike's aunt's baby shower at the Hale Theater, it was such a fun time!
Anyways... Crazy crazy fun week last week, I need to get some pictures. I always feel so bad leaving Mike at home by himself, but he's always such a great husband and a great sport about it. I love him so much!


Just some fun random pics of my family and I.
My little girl's profile at 21 weeks. She's going to have the Blackwell lips and the Meinzer nose! haha
These blocks turned out great. I just to add ribbon and hang them once we get the nursery going!


Tomorrow I have another doctor's appointment to see Evey, and then off to St. George with my family for my brother Brandon's birthday weekend! Very excited for more family time...but not necessarily the HEAT.
