Still No Baby!

I just finished doing jumping jacks in the backyard... still no baby. Today is my official due date. We were cracking up when a lady in the gas station asked, "when are you due?"....."today".
And since I have been such a tardy blogger I am going to give you highlights of the last three weeks.
My Mom and Dad came down for 2 days! We packed a lot in. Including yoga, horseback riding, the lazy river, longhorns and gaining 10 pounds




Then.. Two Sundays ago, a fast Sunday mind you. Cody disappeared right before dinner and wouldn't answer his phone. I was trying so hard not to be mad. I finally caught him on his phone and he told a lie, apologized and came home with my best friend Monica!!!! I was super surprised! We also had a totally fun week together, which included visiting the Dallas temple, trying to figure out the Kennedy assassination, another water park, more cows and some horses, a five star gas station restaurant, Monica's first trip to Cabela's, accessory shopping, and lots of trying to get me to have the baby shenanegans. Monica's visit overlapped a day and a half with my Mom returning for a second time. So I was really hoping Baby Bowler would be born on Sunday Morning so they could both meet him.
But Monica did get to participate in pictionary on Thursday night where the first word was..."SUrprise Baby Shower!" My sweet family, Amelia and Cousin Kelly, organized the little shindig, and it was so perfect. Just a good group of fun friends. It was perfect. I felt like it was Baby Bowlers birthday already. It made me all excited to have him here.

Then on Saturday was Rowdy's Birthday my mom and Monica got to be here for. I am just going to do a separate special post for our sprouting two year old. Thanks everyone who has made these last days of pregnancy , which are usually considered the most tedious, totally fun and amazing. Including the man who got me into this.. love you Cody. Thanks for being so great
