August went by quickly!

I kept telling myself I'd post something else in August... now it's the 31st and I've run out of days to put this off! Nothing big is happening--which is why I find I don't post--but I have a few pictures of things we've been up to lately.

Bekah's favorite vegetable right now is a cucumber. We found a HUGE one at the store and she gobbled it up in two sittings. :D


We've been doing a few crafts this Summer. Here is one where we painted egg cartons green and decorated them like caterpillars.

Here is Bekah posing with her doggies. She just likes to pose for pictures, silly thing!

And, of course, no post on here is complete without me saying something about crafting or sewing. I made a Boppy cover for me (the green one) and one for Holly. I also made a blanket and burp rag set for a girl in the ward who's having a baby in October.
I'm still working on two quilts for a humanitarian project at church, more accessories for the kids' room, and the quilting bee blocks for September, but those aren't 100% finished so I didn't want to post pictures just yet.

The pregnancy is good. He seems to be moving less, but I think it's because he's running out of room. I have only 10 weeks left which doesn't seem like enough time to finish everything I want to before he comes, yet I can't wait to have him in my arms. It seems like all of pregnancy is like that--I want to be done with the waiting, but I also want the time to prepare myself!

Malcom's chugging along at work and teaching at the University again this semester--just one class. At least he's not also taking masters' classes this semester like he did in Spring. That was way too much stress for us!

I'll try to think of more interesting things to post soon. Thanks for reading my random updates, friends. :)
