i have been meaning to update, but we just haven't taken enough pictures lately. and i don't think a post without a picture would be interesting.


i feel like things have calmed down a lot for us. i feel better than i have the whole pregnancy. a little tired, but otherwise great.

jon and stephen put our little girl's baby bed up the other day. it was fun to watch.











the next pictures are from our festive crableg night with the kennedys. we even had streamers and sailor hats.




































in other news, we are looking forward to being in gatlinburg this weekend. jon's grandparents are paying for the whole family to stay in an awesome cabin for labor day. we are leaving thursday afternoon and will come back monday. i'm hoping to hike the 8 miles we hiked last year. it would be nice to go back to the place where we got engaged, but jon isn't so sure that my nearly 6 month pregnant belly should go that far up a mountain. but probably i am most excited about the huge tub in our room. it is going to be NICE to take a long bath!!
