Happy Halloween!

A little late I know.... but Happy Halloween! Hope everyone had a good Halloween. As for me, we had a good weekend hanging out with the babies.

Miles was Charlie Brown and Kaleigh was a cute little fairy! We sure had one heck of a time trying to get these two to cooperate for a picture.

James and I had fun with the babies over the weekend. Last night after we had gotten home, I got a phone call from Heidi. She told me that Kevin and Kayla had been involved in an awful car accident. To make a long story short... they rolled their car and the car is totaled. BUT they both walked away from the accident with just a few bumps and bruises. I am grateful that my brother and his wife were both okay and were not harmed! We love you Kevin and Kayla! Glad you're safe and still in one piece! If you want to see pictures and hear the whole story, check out Kayla's blog at www.rodentsrantings.blogspot.com. The car looks pretty bad. They truly are lucky to be okay.

Too Precious!

Heidi and her baby Kaleigh.... too sweet for words!

I love my niece and nephew!

What do you think?

James and I still have not decided on a name. I want to name the baby Taytum Lyn Ringel. James wants to name the baby McKenzie Lyn Ringel (At least we have agreed on the middle name). I want to know what everyone else thinks.... Taytum or McKenzie?

Baby Showers!

Alright, it's been a while since I've blogged. And pretty soon, I won't have much spare time anymore. So I figured I had better catch up! Well a few weeks ago, my sisters and my mom threw me a baby shower in Rexburg. It was so fun to see everyone! And I got spoiled!! I just hate all of the attention. I really don't like it when people make a fuss over me... but I loved seeing all of my friends! Here are a few pictures from the event.

The diaper cake Heidi made for me... Way cute!


The diaper cake my friend Tiffany made for me.... also way cute!


Holly, me, Liz, Hillary, and Jess... my good friends from high school.


Erin, Alyssa, Kaleigh and I... my other sisters :)


Thanks Heidi, Terrah, and mom for the wonderful shower! And thanks to everyone else for the wonderful gifts, and the love and support! I'm grateful to have such wonderful family and friends. We love you all!


Today the girls at work threw me another baby shower... like I said before, I was spoiled! It was a lot of fun... but the whole attention thing gets to me. I really do have great co-workers and I've been blessed with this wonderful job. Here are some pictures of a few things I got from my co-workers.

Lindsay made the crib bedding for me... this is the bumper. So cute and I love it!


Some cute blankets made for me.
My friend Jessica made me this way cute baby book... because I don't scrapbook all that much. So she got it all ready for me, I just have to add pictures!
There will be more pictures to come of all the other cute things I got. Thanks again everyone! You really did spoil me.

By the way, my due date is exactly one month from today. I can't believe we're down to the last month! I'm getting really excited to meet our little girl.... but I am really nervous at the same time. I'm sure that is how most first time moms feel. Tomorrow is my 36 week appointment... This month is going to fly by for sure. I'm just most curious about what she is going to look like and be like. Sometimes I just worry myself so much, because that is just how I am. I just hope and pray everything will be alright.

Miles' Blessing

This past weekend, James and I went to Rexburg for Miles' baby Blessing. It was so good to see all of my siblings at my parents house over the weekend... crowded, but it was fun. I hadn't seen Kevin and Kayla since the reception in Rexburg. So it was nice to hang out with everyone. I babysat Kaleigh on Friday night. Heidi had to work and Kevy wasn't back from Utah yet. She sure is a stinkin' cute little girl. I was just glad that this weekend wasn't as crazy as the last baby blessing we had.

Miles in his cute little white outfit. What a stud!


I love this picture of Kaleigh... it was taken just at the right moment!


This little face just makes me smile :)

Camping

A few weeks ago, James and I went camping with his family. Here are a few pictures of the Tetons while we were camping.

CMV

I got a letter in the mail from my doctor today. It had the results of my blood work from the CMV test. The results were negative, meaning I have not been exposed to CMV past or present. Which is a good thing! I'm still waiting to hear about the glucose test, but I'm sure if they haven't called me by now, then everything is fine. Right?
