back to normal

I had to blog a picture of my feet now that they aren't swollen anymore! I went and got a pedi on Friday with Mom and now my nails and feet look fabulous! I remember someone saying on a past blog that they felt like a foot model once all the baby swelling was gone and I totally know how they feel! My legs feel SO much lighter even just to walk! I make it sound like I was an elephant and let me tell you...I was! Anyway, to those of you still waiting for your babies...good luck...it'll all be over soon!
I stayed home with my girlies from church again today but that didn't stop me from dressing them up...it's too fun to pass up!





This picture was courtesy of Drew...he took my camera this morning and captured a few funny pictures! Here is Brayden posing for him!


Yesterday Sean got up super early (700) for a Saturday and went outside to work on diggin up the pool! He had two friends come over to help along with the missionaries and it was awesome! They got the ground level and he was able to order the sand and spread it all over the ground too! Now he just has to smooth it out and get a bunch of guys over here to help him set it up! I can't wait! It's been awhile since we first purchased it and I've been patiently waiting. The only crappy thing is all the dirt that came from the pool area is now sitting in my garden...well the garden I never used. Needless to say it's the new thing to play on in the backyard! Every time Taylor goes out there she heads straight for the dirt pile! Now I remember dirt piles being very fun (remember Scenic Acres dirt pile Jeni?) but it's causing me minor stress to have her get dirty every time she goes into the back yard! I have to make a trip to Home Depot and get the biggest tarp I can find and keep it covered until Sean figures out what to do with it!

Anyway...Nana leaves today at 600 and we're all very sad to see her go. She has been a huge help around here and I'm going to miss her! I guess I have to do my own laundry and cleaning now :(

Getting your feet back was the best feeling ever! That is one of the major things that scares me about having more babies!
