...we are thoroughly enjoying this rare time that we have Ben all to ourselves. His contract with SUU was through June, but he was done teaching in early May so he's had TWO full months of paid time off. It has been heaven. He starts school on July 11, we will miss having him around so much. What a help he has been in everything and then some!
I am 37 weeks along this week, the pic is of 36 weeks along. In my 37 week photo I resemble a mix between a pea-pod and a horse, so I posted the 36 week photo instead!
We got a pass to the Austin Children's museum and have been enjoying it about once a week.
Evelyn always goes strait to the Veterinarian station.
Master chefs in the making!
The bat cave. In Austin there is a bridge that is home to thousands of bats that leave each night to feed. The Children's museum has a spot under a bridge where you can pretend you are a bat.
Human Pyramid! Still working on it!
This is our little garden space. Ben has such a green thumb! Will LOVES to be outside and to help Ben water and look after our plants.
As the due date approaches, I've been finding alot of this around the house. The kids took over the car seat and used it for their dolls.
More often than not, when we go to check on the kiddos, we find Hannah sleeping in Evelyn's bed. She says Evelyn tells her stories until they fall asleep. They have become better friends since the move and have spent alot of time together.
William is so sweet! Ben's grandma calls him Sweet William after the flower, but he really is so so sweet.
We have a frog that lives in the front yard! Probably the closest we'll get to having a pet unless anyone knows of any small animal that can live outside in a cage in 10000000000 degree weather.
William is really digging the Wyeth summer reading program.
And of course, pig pile on Dad! We got a mattress out one day and the kids pretended it was a pool, complete with belly flops and all!
William belly flopped on top of everyone

Overall, life is great and we have been blessed beyond measure in everything! Texas has been good to us, I'm just waiting for it to cool down!
