I guess I do have something




Saturday Trent and Tucker went to the lake with his dad, 2 brothers and their wives and kids. There wasn't enough room for Charlotte and I and I wasn't sure if we would last 5 or 6 hours in the heat and sun anyway. Andrea posted some pictures and a little about it here. My really brilliant husband thought a good way to even out his farmer's tan would be to not wear sunblock! Hello! Well, he is paying for it with a terrible sunburn and I think he'll remember next time. They went out to the lake to test out Trent's dad's new air-chair.
Every second Wednesday in July all of my husband's family(parents, siblings and their children and usually both sets of grandparents) go to Lake Powell for 4-5 days. With it being so close to my due date(2 weeks before) I figured it was insane to go and that I would send Trent and Tucker and I would stay home with Charlotte. Keep in mind that I will probably be also in the middle of moving. However, now I am feeling like I would be missing so much and so would Charlotte and that I would feel bad if I just stay at home on my bum the whole time. What do you guys think? I will probably end up waiting to decide until the day before, I don't know what to do.
This is Daddy and Tucker on a boogie board behind the boat! What a big boy!


Tuesday the kids got to play at the mall play place. I always hate it because it is so stressful trying to make sure that the kids don't get run over by the stupid kids who are way too old to be in there. But the kids love it.

Here is Charlotte today in her sunglasses.

Doesn't Trent know that farmer tan's are the coolest?

Yah, farmer's tans are the coolest haha. Hmm, that's tough about the Lake Powell trip. My suggestion is stay home but have people over to help you pack and just get you excited for your precious baby to come :)

I've tried and tried but I simply can't figure out (get up on) the airchair. Alan and B are funny on it, but they say it's not as fun as skiing and wakeboarding anyway.

Trent... geez, men will never learn... sunscreen is a must.

I agree with Lauren... stay home. You'll be a lot less stressed for it.

Great photos! Such darling kiddos...

Since you won't be getting much sleep in about a month you could take time to catch up on some rest. Just trying to put a positive spin on the sitting on your butt part;-)

Really now- you could spend some girl time with Charlotte and get a pedicure since you probably (oh never mind- you certainly don't need me to remind you). A massage is divine, too.

Yep, stay home and pamper you and have some fun time with Charlotte.

my kids love that mall play place. we should go together sometime.

i don't think i would go to lake powell. i would just stat home and relax (if that's possible in the midst of moving!). good luck!

I say you should go- unless you won't be able to sleep very well. We took 5 kids to Sea World 3 weeks before I had Taj, and it wasn't too bad...

I always thought I would take my kids in that play place in AZ if we ended up staying there.
