Summer Fun

Well the end is in sight we have six weeks left until the office is closed. I'm really missing home,family and friends. I can't wait to see my house and sleep in my bed. It always seems like the last month is the hardest for me I get really home sick. I don't tell Dan because I know he is to and he still has six weeks of work left and I don't want to make it hard on him. Dan might be going to a smaller city three hours away and staying down there the last two weeks of the summer. If so me and the kids are going to fly home for those two weeks. Grandma will take the kids and I will fly back and drive home with Dan. We will see how that goes.

I have been feeling a lot better these day's I have even been able to get up in the morning and go to the gym. I will tell you on thing I do not have as much energy when it comes to the gym I use to work out for two hours a day and now I'm lucky to work out a hour by then I'm wiped out. We should be finding out soon what we are having. I'm personally hoping for another boy. We are also on the look out for a Doc in Utah that will let us try to have the baby and not have to have another C-section. If I have another C-section I will not be able to have anymore kids. We will have to stop at three and even know I don't want to confirm it I think we need to have on more. So if anyone knows of some good Doc let us know. That pitcher is of me at 14 weeks. Look at how big my tummy is getting!!

We love to go swimming

We love to go swimming we go just about everyday. Both of my kids have got so brave this year. When we started going to the pool when we got her. Kimberley would not even get in the pool and we had to talk Brigham in to it. Kimberley started going in the pool but would only stay on the stairs and only go swimming. If me and Dan were holding her hand. But now look at her she is a little fish she swims around the pool by her self. Brigham was never scared of the water but he would only jump of the side of the pool if Dan was there to catch him. Then he started to jump of the stairs by him self and now he will jump off the side by him self. Kids amaze me at how everything is just a step to them and in no time they seem to have figured it out and then nothing is stopping them.

Water holes at the mall

Me and Randi took the kids down to the Down Town Mall to go play in the water holes. We have been trying to bet the heat around here it's been really hot lately. The kids loved it something new and not to mention free.

Updates and more

Well the Erickson family is doing great. Dan's is doing well with his sales top in the region and is leading the office. We have hit are half way point with about seven week's left "ya". I can't wait to get home we have a lot to do before the baby comes. We are going to re do all the bath rooms in the house, move Kimberley down stairs, finish those never get done projects we started before we moved in, our yard needs some work and the baby nursery. Wow that a lot to do in four and a half months.

I'm doing a little better with the morning sickness it seems to have lighted up a little in the morning but still pretty bad at night. Today marks the first day in the second trimester "14 weeks". I have my doc appt on Monday to see how the baby is doing. As of now I have only gained 4 pounds due to being sick and I'm trying to watch what I eat. I'm loving fruit like Kiwis, Strawberry, Grapes, Pears and etc. I also love sandwich ham and cheese. I'm not that big of a sandwich eater but that's all I want lately and mashed potato's. Don't you just love all those strange thing you eat when your prego. My tummy is already big for not gaining a lot of wight I have got the prego belly I can't believe it comes faster and faster with ever pregnancy.

The kids are doing good I feel bad because I don't have the energy these day I try and do as much as I can to make such they have a fun summer and I think they are. Kimberley asks a lot of questions about the baby. One that had me rolling was. I was laying in bed one morning after taking my morning trip to the the bathroom. she came in and asked me if I was sick and I said yes that the baby makes me sick some times she then went to ask me word for word " Why did daddy put the baby in your belly?". I started to laugh and then told her to go ask daddy that question. Dan did not know what to say so we did one of those change the question and have her think of something else. It's been a lot of fun with the kids and this pregnancy all the question and the involvement they have in it is great.

Forth of July

We had a great forth this year. Me and the mom's started the day hanging out by the pool while the guy's went to work for half a day. We spent a little to long down there in the hottest part of the day. Everyone got a little pink even the kids that had sun block on them. After that we head home for some naps and rest. We packed up a picnic dinner and head to the park to watch the firework show. This show was amazing one of the best I have ever seen it was way long and they keep coming one after another. Kids loved it we decide to pick up some fireworks on the way home. The kids had a great time with the sparklers Brigham is such a boy three and already loves fire "OH DEAR". Kimberley was a little scared at first then end up loving it. We all head home about one in the morning to get some sleep because we have church at nine. All in all it was a great night with family and friends.
