28 weeks, and a day at the pool

So we are rounding the last bend on this baby business.  28 weeks!  yikes that's 7 months  I can't believe it.  We've done a few more things to get ready so I am feeling more prepared and there are only a few things left on our to do list.... besides the ever present "stock up on Diapers!".  Everything is still going perfect, health wise and we are getting more and more excited to meet this new little person!

We had Emily and Jonathan and the boys over today and went swimming.  Violet is really settling into her new role as a two year old and had a difficult time behaving at the pool.  Fights over toys are becoming more common as the kids all become more and more opinionated and independent, it can be pretty chaotic at times but it's wonderful.  We had a little BBQ, just some burgers and a salad (yes we eat salad even when our parents aren't looking!).  It was a great day.

Sam has started to say cheese when you pull out a camera.  Wesley has been doing this for a long time and Violet started to do it this month too so maybe we can get a video someday of all three yelling cheese at the same time.  What a little cutie.

6 little monkeys jumping on the bed!

What are brothers for?

Jonathan and Wesley playing a car racing game.  I don't know how well they did as a team but they had a  lot of fun.

Violet and Wesley watching "Wonder Pets" after a dip in the pool.  Notice how they both suck on their fingers.

Violet is having a hard time deciding on a nap time, she fell asleep just as everyone was getting here to go swimming.  She is definitely not ready to give up her nap yet!  Peter thinks she looks like a super model when she sleeps.  She has been known to sleep in very cute positions.

Violet likes her old swing again, and she found another baby to carry around.  Here she is watching the Muppets in her swing, cuddling her babies before bed.

Violet is all ready to head out on some big adventure with her pink back pack!  of course there isn't anything in her bag but she looks the part.

Here is some video of all of us in the pool.  It was a perfect afternoon to go swimming and the pool was just cleaned a few days ago so it was really nice.
