Countdown to Jenna

The countdown to Jenna is on! With 10 days until my due date, we are looking forward to the birth of our second daughter. I am slightly dilated and having some minor contractions every now and then, so we know this little girl is on her way. If we do not go into labor before the due date, we will be induced on September 10th. Our parents have booked their flights and the bassinet is all put together...come on baby Jenna!

A little babymoon

While Mommy and Daddy took a couple days away at a church conference in Orlando, Anna Kate got to stay with Ab and Nana in Canyon and have some special time with her grandparents! She had a great time and loved being the apple of her grandparents' eyes. While she was there, she got to visit with Aunt Robin, Great Grandma, and Aunt Susie. What a treat! She is already excited to do it again.

Dancing with Daddy

As we enjoyed an outdoor concert at a neighborhood park recently, Jonathan and Anna Kate took some time to dance!

Preparing for Baby Jenna

Anna Kate has been such a big help preparing for Baby Jenna. First she tested out many of the new items we have received for her new sister. She especially loves the pacis! She practices giving her baby doll her own paci too. Then as we put new batteries in the bouncy seat, Anna Kate demonstrated her skills with a screwdriver. Where did she learn that one? Now anytime we take things for Jenna out of the garage, Anna will say baby, baby. I think she is really ready to be a big sister.

Catching up...

While Anna Kate is in the bathtub (aka her inside pool because she lays down and swims in it), I am trying to catch up on this blog. We will see how far we get today! First once we returned home from Texas and Jonathan got back from Costa Rica, we were surprised with a harvest of bounty from his garden. Anna Kate and I harvested another big batch of produce on our own as we hit three stores in one morning. She and I were both worn out!
