The Vandura and swim lessons

Now that blogger is letting me post again, I want to take advantage and update y'all on our summer. We went to the Evanston Rodeo last weekend. The kids loved the chicken chase and the saddle bronc riding. Rosie said she wanted to see Dad ride the wild bronc, but I was happy he was in the stands with us instead! Rosie also insisted on wearing her "cowgirl jeans and jean jacket" to look authentic. She was so cute!

We got a van! For months now we have been looking for a bigger vehicle since our little Honda Accord would be quite tight with 3 little ones in the back. Clark said he would really love to find an old van with curtains and comfy seating. Then just yesterday I was browsing online when I came across a 1990 GMC Vandura with only 79 thousand miles on it. I quickly called the lady and we drove over last night to look at it. I started cracking up when I saw it. It is hilarious! It's super comfy and very roomy. Will noticed it barely fits in a parking spot. The kids both hopped in and buckled themselves without any help and I knew it was the car for us. Here's to hopefully many more miles in our new ride.

Will just finished swim lessons today. He took them for 3 weeks at the local pool and he did so well. He passed off two levels and now feels comfortable swimming underwater, floating on his back, and even doing flips in the water. I was so proud of him!

Here's just a cute picture of the kids. They found Clark's ear muffs for when he goes out shooting his loud guns. They were pretending they were listening to music. Rosie's were too big for her and they kept squeezing her cheeks.

Here I am, 38 weeks along! I have an appt next Tuesday and hopefully the doctor will still suggest I get induced. At my appt last week, he offered to break my water, since things were already progressing. I realized I wasn't ready then to get induced, but now I am ready!
