Update Before Baby Comes

Back in August as we drove home from Idaho, we went through Custer State Park in South Dakota. Saw us some great Bison!



Had an unexpected stop at Martin's Cove. No idea it was there! They had great "mini" handcarts for the kids. Wonderful visitor's center, too. Really enjoyed it.


Kenzie loved her glasses.


On our way to Mt. Rushmore there was a beautiful scenic outlook. I'm about 7 1/2 months along here.


Then there was Mt. Rushmore!


We had promised Caleb we'd celebrate his birthday the weekend we were home. So I had about 2 days to get stuff unpacked and make Caleb his birthday cake. I only used leftover fondant from Kenzie's birthday cake...so I didn't have quite enough. Don't look too close. Caleb's first comment was, "Why are it's tires flat??" lol Thanks son. Happy 4 years my wonderful son!

Then September brought Caleb's first day of preschool. He was really excited! Kenzie was too, though she didn't know why.

Towards the end of September we took our first visit to an apple orchard since living in Iowa. Unfortunately, it decided to pour. and our poor pneumonia-recovering family was really cold. Caleb loved it, at least! This pic was before it started pouring.


Aside from these awesome documented pics, we've just been surviving Justin's terrible school schedule, trying to get ready for baby (2 weeks and counting!), and trying to stay healthy, all while having fun! :) It's always an adventure and a delicate balance!
