Getting Ready...

tomorrow is the big day! i feel much calmer than i have in a long time...i hope everything goes okay and that i can handle two babies while ben's gone all summer long. winter only babies for us from now on!:) we've had dr's appointments, a few play dates -halelujah for mom! bentley does so well playing with others...and lots of stockpiling to get ready for company and being out of commission. the only thing that didn't come thru were my baby clothes order...it got lost and cannot be filled! great, i have two girl's pj's and a dress. oh well!

everyone around has been so helpful and kind to us, especially when i got sick last week from the medication i was taking for indigestion. (good news is i am off of it, and feel so much better!) we celebrated ben's birthday last friday by going to the temple and then to carraba's. it was so fun to go on a date together.. i have the best husband! thanks jill, for watching bentley. ben's parents also made him a big, birthday meal on sunday and we all had fun enjoying the evening.

in other news, i went drastic yesterday and cut my hair off just below my shoulders. i am hoping it will be easier to maintain and a nice change with everything going on! ben and i bit the bullet ($) and put in a fenced area in our back yard with vinyl fencing to match what was all ready there. we are in the process of getting a big sandbox ready back there and hope bentley will stay occupied in the new area, especially with the baby coming! i can't believe this is the last day that it will only be me and him hanging out. our lives will forever change come tomorrow...

so maria, you better hurry back or somebody tell me because my mom didn't go to church on Sunday and I'm dying to know if you had a boy or a girl. I would call you but I don't think I have your phone number!
