Baby Update!

I know that you are all patiently waiting to know when the baby is here. Yes, the baby's due date was yesterday August 25. Last week when we went to the doctor he said that he would probably start her at her next appointment which was yesterday. But the doctor is making her go one more week because the baby isn't ready yet. He said that they could be off a week or two on her due date. The poor thing was heart broken that she had to wait another week before he might start her. She is hoping that she has her sooner then later. But I don't think anything will happen before her next appointment, Monday August 31. We will keep you posted. Thanks for all your love and support through this adoption process.

THE ROOM!
Well after a lot of time and patience the room is finally ready for our princess! Cal cut out all the flowers, which I painted. I made the curtains, chair cushion, and crib skirt.

Girls Camp

This year I had the opportunity to go to Girls Camp. It was the week of the 10-14 of August. Camp was at The Heber Valley Camp and it was on a Stake level. Our theme was "Now is the Time". I was a little nervous to go since the doctor told Amber that with her Gestational Diabetes she would probably deliver early. The stake camp director was willing to work with me since I was unsure when the baby was coming. They let me drive up myself so I could leave at any time. The areas that the Stake had were Snow and Abish. They were cabined by year of camp. I was one of the leaders over the 4th years girls which were in Yurts in Abish. My sister Anette was one of the other leaders in my yurt. Abish was 1/4 mile away from Snow. So for each activity we had to walk up to Snow. You just hoped you didn't forget anything. Since I was with the 4th years Tuesday we went on an over night hike that helped them with their certification. We hiked about 4miles each way. I know that doesn't sound like a lot but with a 25lb packed on your back it becomes a lot of work. Since we were all tired after the long hike they let us drive up and down to Snow the rest of the week. So we would see how many people we could fit in my tiny car. While at camp we went cannoning, did a challenge course,and had a lot spiritual experiences.
All the 4th years and leaders ready for the overnighter.
We hit the record of the most people that I have ever had in my Honda Civic. We had 9 people at one time.
Our Yurt! "Keepers of Truth"
