Last week we were able to go to Boise to help tend my little niece while my sister had a baby girl. It was so fun to spend a few full days with Jenna and she, Thomas and Grace had a lot fun together. We found that Jenna and Grace have static hair in common.


Mostly we hung around their house and visited them once in the hospital. Katie is so sweet and I'm still on a newborn high from getting to hold her so much. But then I wonder if I really am ready for three kids?!? RaeAnn had a much better labor with her and I was so impressed at how good and refreshed she looked so quickly after delivering.

Makes my due date in 11 weeks feel far away! We also went to a very fun place in Boise called Kiddnaround. It was a huge open room with a ton of slides, climbing forts, rock walls, and play areas for kids. They had a kitchen area set up, and a train table too. All around were really nice sectionals and tables and chairs for the adults while the kids played. It was a little pricy, but Thomas and Grace loved it so so much.
Here is a link to their website/pictures. I wish we got some pictures of our own. It gave me big ideas for our future dream basement.
Speaking of ideas for home, I have just recently discovered pinterest. I've been avoiding it because people told me it's very addictive, but I couldn't hold back any longer and I really do love it. So fun.
Today is my birthday and it is a pretty low key day but last night Nolan indulged me in as many games as I wanted to play, until I won them all. And today he's been really sweet with cleaning making me food etc. Grace slept until 10:45, and Thomas was at preschool until 11:20 so a very chill morning!!! I've spent my birthday money on new couch pillows, and some great clothes My sister got me some great candle sconces. I promise to post pictures of our house now that Christmas decorations are down soon! Great day so far!

Happy birthday, pretty lady! That is one thing I always associate with you--games! So fun you got to help your sister. I didn't know she was expecting a 2nd! I'm sure she appreciated your help. Hope you have a fabulous day today!
Happy Birthday! So glad to hear an update on the Arnesons. Have a great day, I hope you get super spoiled!
Dang...if I would have known it was your b-day when I saw you today I would have given you some spankins!!! HAHA...only kidding! Hope you have an excellent day! And what a cute niece!
I wish we could have done something fun for your birthday, but I guess we will just have to make tomorrow extra fun. Thanks for letting Christopher and Darin come and play games. Christopher was really excited to be able to come alone! It's so fun to have you close, I wish I had more free time to do more, but such as life. Katie looks darling, lots of cute hair!
