Well the Summer is coming to an end! I really cant believe how fast it has gone. Everyone said I would hate the summer while pregnant, but I have to admit, it hasn't been that bad! We have spent almost every weekend for the past 2 months camping up at Current Creek. It has been a blast! But I think I am done for now. Spencer is currently up at Current Creek with Russ and Matt for the archery hunt. We will have a few weeks off from hunting trips, and hopefully Sadie Bell will arrive early enough for Spence to make it to the muzzle loader hunt!
I had my first baby shower this last week, put on by Mikaila, Holly and Amy. It was a lot of fun. See the new pictures at the bottom!

Its been awhile so I thought I better bring ya up to date! I am now 34 weeks prego and doing great. We aren't quite ready yet, so hopefully she doesn't come early! As for names, we kept going back to Saydee (spelling still up for changes), of course it could all change if she comes out looking like something else! But at least I think I will get the middle name that I really want which is Bell, my Grandma Whyte's middle name.
We have spent a lot of time this year up at Currant Creek, our hunting spot. Spencer wanted to scout out deer as much as he could, and I just wanted to sleep nice and cool! Dutch is now a part of our camping trips as well as Buddy. I think they both really enjoy it. Spencer is torn between the 4 wheeler and Dutch, both have their advantages so it will be tough call if he ever has to choose between the two of them. But until then, we take the both of them, which makes packing for the trips interesting. Spencer asked where we will put the baby once she gets here, that wasn't hard to decide, Buddy would have to move to the trailer where there is a designated place for dogs. So this weekend we tried it out... I think he did well though I am sure he misses the air conditioned truck! Oh well, the Baby has first dips!

Trip to Arizona/Mexico
We have just returned home from our trip to Arizona/Mexico. Our friends, Stephanie (my mission comp) and her hubby Steven live in Arizona, so we flew down Wednesday May 14 to see them. Thursday we packed up the car and drove to Rocky Point Mexico, about a 3 hour drive. Before leaving to Mexico we stopped at Stephanie's office (a Dr's office) so she could do another ultrasound on me for fun. I think this was the funnest for Spence because he asked to do it himself! (Girls let me just tell you it was the cutest thing ever!) Once he found her little head and realized she was holding her hands together by her face, he started talking to her. She dropped one hand and waved! It was so cute! The more he talked, the more she moved! It was nice to not be rushed by a nurse!
Once in Mexico we stayed at Las Palmas resort. First thing first, we headed down to the beach. The weather was perfect as was the water. Friday morning the boys rented jet skis for an hour. We spent half the time at the ocean and the other half at the pool. We ate a lot of quesadillas with a lot of pico de gallo! On Friday night Emily and Drew (friends of Steven and Stephanie) came down. She also is prego at 7 months. It was lot of fun.
We headed back to Arizona after a few more hours in the ocean Sunday afternoon.
Overall, it was a great getaway!!

IT'S A GIRL!!!!
Well I was right!!! We will be having a girl! I guess we were both a bit surprised, but Spencer especially! He asked for a few confirmations and then asked how sure she was! The nurse said she was 99% positive and so he left it at that!
Later that night, when I was so ready to fall asleep Spencer was adamant about picking a name that night! Luckily I finally fell asleep and he gave up. But the search continues!!!

Flying Solo this week!
Well I deleted the post that I had written minutes after finding out my sister-in-law Heidi was pregnant as well (due in December)! Because I guess I wasn't the last to find out, and by doing so, helped spread the news to other family members who read my blog that day of the posting!!! I wont do that again! (Heidi, I am really sorry about that!)
So this past week I have been flying solo!!! Spencer got the opportunity to go back to his mission in Venezuela with a former mission companion. Though I really wanted to go, I decided it probably wasn't best and so the boys headed out last Thursday. I've heard from Spence a few times and he has really enjoyed seeing the people he once taught. I hope we both get the opportunity to go back, but with the economic state of Venezuela we don't know if or when that would be possible.
Due to this trip I rescheduled my ultrasound, so check back next week if you don't hear before, to find out what we will be having! Spencer still thinks its a boy, and though we refer to him as a HIM, sometimes I get a feeling that I am incorrect in saying that. But we shall see next Tuesday.
I have definitely stayed busy this week. The most productive thing I have accomplished is finally after 2 1/2 years of living in our house, I painted our bedroom! I just couldn't stand it any longer!!! I will post pictures next week when I have the camera back! Until then, for those of you who saw it before, just know... its much much better!
Love to all!!!
