road trip day 1

We're in Oregon!! We've decided to do a little bit of a family vacation in between Brandon's semesters and we will be on the road as a family (including Bobo) for the next week and a half...the WORST mountainous drive EVER!! we had to take a picture to show we survived!!! It should be called Satan's Pass, geez...

Blickenstaff's

Who said toy stores are just for kids?


This Saturday we went and visited my good friend Amy at the toy store Blickenstaff's in Orem/Provo. This place is amazing!! We were there for a good 2 hours at least (not joking). I dont think I looked at the same toy twice. It was VERY cool. We're going to have to bring little Mirene here. It was AWESOME.

XOXO,

Imelda M.

little miss Evie monster

I call her the little Evie monster. this is because she grunts and makes little dinosaur noises when shes awake (and when shes alseep). Enjoy!!

Daddy Daughter time

& dont forget the "other" daughter... who would be sorely disappointed if she was left out:



hahah love the bobo-nator... who is a very loving and affectionate member of the family. Now when we walk in the door the first thing she needs to see is the baby. She must inspect the carrier and make sure baby is intact before she greets us. Pretty stinkin funny.

XOXO,

Imelda & Fam

Still at the Hospital....

um holy cow the time has literally flown by! I know I've tried to email pictures because I knew I would be a slacker but seriously.... Here are a few of my favorites so far. I will try to do oldest at the bottom so you can see how much she has changed in just a very short while...
have you seen trailer for the last air bender? thats what we think she looks like...

Jane Eyre + Beto's Bacon Breakfast Burrito= Happy Baby

Saturday night we were able to score lat minute tickets to "Jane Eyre, the musical" here in SLC. Our friend in the ward had the starring role. Now that I look back, I had some back to back contractions during the second half of the play. Baby must have liked it! Well we headed home around 10:30pm, grabbed some AMAZING cheap mexican food at Beto's and wha-la: my water broke under an hour later...(pretty much 10 minutes into eating our food). We called the hospital, went to bed, got an awesome's night's rest and headed to the hospital around 10am Sunday morning. We took some last minute photos seeing as I knew this was my last day being pregnant. Its kind of a weird feeling, knowing that it's really over. a little bittersweet but no big deal.... the BABY WAS COMING!!! YAY"!





XOXO,
