Distractions

We have been on pins and needles this week awaiting news of our friends and their health. (You can head here to get regular updates.) It appears their recovery is going to be long and slow, but we're hopeful for their eventual health. Day by day. Thank you for your prayers!

Of course you know we're waiting on our little lady too... No status change on that front. I am 1cm dilated and barely effaced. I learned this after taking all three boys with me to my appointment on Thursday. Let's just say squeezing three small children, an OB, and a patient (who can't move from the exam table because she's not fully clothed) into a small room amounts to very little productivity and a whole lot of chaos. Gotta love it. We couldn't get out of there fast enough! The boys did enjoy hearing MG's "heartbeap" (according to T), which was rhythmically beating away. She is well and all is good. Might I add that no woman in my side of the family has ever shown up early for anything! "Late" is our middle name...

So what's a family to do when it seems like they are waiting on everything? Especially when we tend toward impatience??...

Why, you make a waterpark in your backyard, of course!

The boys were filthy and SO happy when all was said and done.

Cheers to summer!

God bless,
