Leavin' on a Jet Plane...

























































Well we had a fun and eventful week in Rexburg. Here's some pics of our niece and nephew twins at the splash park in Rexburg and their slightly bigger "swimming buddies". The little baby is our newest nephew Logan, and that's my sister-in-law Amber, and Steve's Dad.
I am also including some pictures of Steve's graduation. His graduation went great and it was so fun to hear his name said and to see him walk across the stage. I had to force him to walk but after spending all this time trying to get his "4yr" degree I just had to see him walk. He looked so handsome in his cap and gown though that maybe I can convince him that this walking thing isn't so bad!
We also had a baby shower for me on Friday that was really fun. My friend Monica did a great job of putting it on and we had a good turnout. I got some cute clothes although most of them are 6-9 mos ( apparently I look like I'm having a chunky baby...just kidding!), but we don't really have any 0-3 yet but those are the most fun to buy, right?!
So we had a little scare on Friday night. Apparently, Aubrey thought it was time to come to because I started to have contractions! Steve and his brothers and dad had gone off golfing and I was just sitting around the the girls and was having a lot of pain from the top of my stomach down. My sister-in-law Amber is actually a labor and delivery nurse up at the hospital and she was the one who started being concerned. She said it felt like my uterus was contracting and she starting timing me after they had gone on about 2 hrs or so. I didn't want to go into the hospital because I though it was probably nothing, but she didn't leave me much choice and called up to her friend's at the nursing desk and told them I was coming in! I tried to even talk Steve out of it on the way there, hoping that he would let me just go home and we would just tell them that we went and everything was fine...but no go. Anyway, turns out it was good that I came in because I was having contractions, and after hydrating me they had to give me a shot of something to stop them. It was tons of fun. We got home about 2 am. Everything seems fine now though, and I just have to take it easy and hopefully we don't have a baby while we are gone on our trips to Florida and Missouri this week! Hopefully our baby girl wants to stay in now though, although it would be nice to see her! We'll just have to wait a little longer I guess. :)
Steve is now the big 2-5. His bday was on Saturday. I got him our new favorite game "killer bunnies" for his birthday and we went out to eat at Bajio with family and friends. The top picture is of him making a birthday wish before blowing out his "candle". We figure he is too old for more than one, and one trip to the ER in a week is more than enough! : )

Well it's t-minus 2 hours until Steve and I are supposed to leave to drive down to Utah so I better get moving. Seeing as how I pack everything but the kitchen sink for even weekend trips, this two-week excursion should be interesting! Here we come Florida!
