The Last Few Days

We are still just hanging out trying to find things to do until our little girl arrives, so here is an update on what is going on.

On Thursday, Adam had class and an interview in the morning so while he was doing that, Mom and I went onto BYU campus to look around. Our first stop was to the Gordon B. Hinckley Visitors Center. Even though it has been finished for a while, neither of us had been inside. When they were here for my brother's graduation we tried to go in, but for some reason it was closed.

It really is a beautiful building and was amazing all the woods and furniture and just planning that went into the building. We had a guided tour that didn't take very long, but it was fun to see it all.


We also drove around to see where the KMB had been. Adam told us they had torn it down, but I was amazed when I drove around the corner to see this...



This is kinda for my dad, because he told us this is where he went into the MTC. It is now just a very well manicured yard. For those who can't place this building...it is on the very south east side of campus. Next to the Widtsoe building (which is in the picture).

We also had fun in the bookstore for a few more minutes until Adam met up with us so we could all go home.

On Friday, we decided it would be fun to go up to Park City to visit the outlet mall. It was just a way to get up and moving, not necessarily to go shopping, even though we did some of that too.

The ride up to Park City through the canyon was actually really pretty. All the leaves are changing colors. This is what we saw. Sorry the picture isn't the best, but it was taken while we were driving.


After a long afternoon of shopping, Mom and I also went to see a movie last night. If you haven't seen "The Women", it is a fun movie to go see with friends. Don't drag your husbands/boyfriends to watch it. Maybe a few would enjoy it, but it is definitely a movie for the girls to watch on an evening out. I won't say anything about it, except that is was fun.

Today, we went to see Cassie and Jonny again in the hospital. Since their little Hailey was born 3 1/2 weeks early, she is having a hard time keeping her blood sugar regulated. She has been in the Special Care Nursery, but is doing a ton better. She just needs to keep eating and things are looking up. They think she might go home tonight!!! YAY!!!

Since Cassie has been released from the hospital, we went to eat lunch with Jonny, Cassie, and her mom at Olive Garden. After lunch, Cassie had to run back to the hospital to feed Hailey so we parted ways. We are now just waiting to hear any news from them.

We are trying to keep busy to keep our minds off this little stubborn girl of ours that doesn't seem to want to leave her mommy's belly. We have talked to her and begged her to come out, I have walked a million times in the last week, I have been on my feet shopping, walking, looking, etc. and nothing seems to help. We are just still playing the waiting game and I have a feeling we might be waiting until Tuesday when I know I will be induced. Pray that it will be EARLIER!!!!!

Well it sounds like you are having a great time waiting for that sweet baby to come to this world! If it makes you feel better Landon was 11 days over, and I had to be induced. No fun:-( Joel was 2 weeks early and Allison was on time. So there you have it they come when they are ready. Good luck, I am praying for you<3
