August has been a whirlwind of emotions as we prepare for our little guy to come but also try to make the most of our time as just Jed and I. It's been simple, because we can't really go anywhere, but it has been fantastic. At the beginning of the month Jed and I saw our last movie in the theaters without having to get a babysitter! We saw Dunkirk and it was so amazing. Jed and I both love war movies and we love the movies Christopher Nolan makes so it was a win win.
We had a really fun time with friends this month. Some of our very best friends have made living here so much fun. We got together a lot with the Hill's and Johnson's before the Johnson's moved to Utah. We have such a good time with them.
One evening Jed and I went to a fun restaurant called Rail Garten with our friends Vik and Lizzy. It's an outside diner and their is live music, volleyball, corn hole, ping pong, etc. It's a really fun atmosphere and we had a great time.
Jed had the honor of being a groomsman at Vik and Lizzy's wedding. It was a fun experience for him and we had a blast at their wedding celebrating.
We "watched" the solar eclipse from our backyard. We didn't have any glasses to watch it but we did it the old fashioned way of punching a whole in a card and watching the shadow have and eclipse. It was still a neat experience.
The week our baby was due Jed didn't have any school. While it was frustrating that he didn't come then, as it would have been perfect timing, we had an amazing week spending time together and getting lots of things around the house done. One day Jed and I made decorations for the nursery. Jed made this amazing planes for the wall and they are so cool and adorable!
Jed and I tried to go peach picking but apparently the orchard we went to had a bad year of peaches and they didn't have any left. Luckily they had pears and so we picked a patch. Still very fun event though the pears were really weird too!
We had fun going on walks, watching movies, doing yard work together, seeing friends, and laughing a lot! I feel like we have been so happy lately and one of my favorite things to do with Jed is laugh. Looking back now it really was perfect and I really cherish the moments we had that week. We are both so excited and anxious to become parents but are so ready for this next adventure. We are 4 days overdue and our baby probably wont be born until tomorrow morning but it couldn't be more perfect. Luckily, even though Jed has started the new semester, all of his classmates and professors have been extremely understanding and supportive. We feel nothing but love from those around us and those who would love to be with us but can't.
Some last pregnancy pictures before baby boy comes!
Crazy how our next post will be about our new son :)
