After seeing your post with a picture of you half way through your pregnancy and it seemed it wasn't new news I wondered if I had missed a post. I came back looking. What a darling way to share your happy news! I am so happy for you!!
Our celebrations for Independence Day 2020 were very different than what we're used to. This is my favorite holiday along with Easter, and I try to go big each year, so it took a lot of stretching for me to find ways to make the week special with so many Covid limitations. We ended up having a lot of fun! First we got things festive looking around the house with art projects. Tanner really liked painting, with straws! Dallin really liked it, too! We went to Walmart to buy some clothes for Mom, Tanner, and Dallin. Mom really wanted to see how she looked so Tanner took some pictures. We couldn't go into the changing rooms cuz of Covid, and there weren't any mirrors around, so this is the only thing we could do! Cool guys ready to celebrate in their new shirts!! Can you see the great horned owl in the tree? This is our view from our balcony. There it goes!! Massage time for Mom!! Dallin really wanted to be a masseuse, so this is one way for him to do it!

My mom and dad came to visit from Colorado during my Spring Break! We went to Balboa Island... Watched the sunset on the beach... Ate at fun restaurants like Joe's Crab Shack, Pei Wei, and the Sugar Shack... Toured the gardens at the Getty Museum in LA... Watched seals and dolphins at my favorite theme park, Sea World... And shopped for baby stuff and put things together in the soon-to-be-baby room. While putting together the crib set, Dad wore some glasses from Walgreans 'cuz he forgot his reading glasses at home. He didn't bother to remove the tag! Putting together the rocking chair.
Between Christmas and New Year's, we had some great vacationing. Jeremy worked on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve (cuz they are slower days), and then took off Mondays. So he had a much needed relaxing two weeks. And we loved it, too, because we got to see lots of Daddy! The boys played while Daddy snow-blowed, and then Jeremy took them around the yard a few times in the sled. Tanner is getting very creative with his imaginary drum sets. One day, he used the remote controls for percussion instruments. We went to the Minneapolis Zoo on one of Jeremy's days off! (Thanks, Uncle Steve and Aunt Katie for the giftcard!) You might be wondering, "Why go to the zoo in the winter? Isn't it freezing there?" The answer is yes, it is actually colder than freezing. We wanted to go to the zoo because of the huge indoor tropic exhibit they have! Dallin and I enjoyed the toddler playroom. Dallin kept finding the trickiest ways to climb on the exhibit. He didn't want to g...
