He's here! Gavin Benjamin Morrow, born 09/09/09.

It's the Final Countdown!

Since I've been thinking I'd have the baby "any minute now" for the past week, time got to be a real drag, and life was quite boring! But Labor Day weekend was awesome, thanks to the Merbacks! They came into town, and we had plans with them and our other friends everyday. Eating, talking, shopping, BYU football game, and more eating and talking pretty much covers it. I've started feeling anti-social during the summer/pregnancy, so I'm glad to have sparked my love for hanging out with friends again!

Now most pregnant people in their right mind don't like to post pictures of themselves for everyone to stare at, but I thought you'd like to see why people ask if I'm having twins, or commenting on how big and low I am... :)

Makes a good seat though :)

Ashley and Joey
(used to live in SA but moved to OK last year)

Abby and Georgie (their 3 yr. old)

Labor Day (which I had high hopes for...) turned out to be a good day--more shopping for me (walking around), biking for Ben, and swimming for the girls.


We also can't pass up free food, so we dressed in team shirts to get free chick-fi-lay sandwiches

...and ice cream of course

NEXT POST WILL BE ABOUT OUR NEW BABY!! I'm scheduled to be induced tomorrow, 9/9/09! Please don't let me be bumped!

Kindergarten!

Abby has now finished her 2nd week of Kindergarten and she loves it! Poor girl gets woken up at 6:45 am (after I'm already ready for the day, so feel sorry for ME), starts class at 7:45 and gets out at 2:45pm. I'm soooo glad she had pre-k every day last year to get her somewhat ready for this long schedule. So here are her "first-day" pictures, even though it was the 2nd day of school. She was sick and had to miss the real first day.

The whole family took her

No tears, no fuss, all smiles

End of Summer

...Okay, not temperature wise here in TX, but psychologically. School is back in session, our pool is closed (dumb), and fall clothes line the shelves in the stores (even though long sleeved stuff doesn't go very far here). So here are some pictures of our final summer days...

Braving the heat and trying to do fun things like "The Christmas Carol Train Tour" by Disney... that fan was the best part of it :)

Swimming days!

Being pregnant and getting ready for baby boy to join us (my friend and her mother-in-law threw me a shower, and we finally got the room ready and moved Livi in with Abby)

And, again, being pregnant! (me at 39 weeks... come on already!!)
