4th of July weekend

I can't believe it's already July! We packed up the dogs and headed to the west side. Friday we went to a dog show. Josh was entered in conformation, and both were entered in obedience. Being from the tri-cities, Josh and McKenzie are practically bald, they have shed so much! Then I see all the west side dogs who still have coats....so we didn't do anything in conformation, but Josh is doing well remembering how to be a show dog! We havent practiced obedience in awhile, as our focus has been agility, so we just played around in the obedience ring. But it was a fun show, and we saw Kim, breeder of all my aussies, past and present! And we saw Taz, Josh and McKenzie's Mom. We went home to a BBQ at my parents, with Shauna, Noah, Cooper, Matt, Kelly, Jenna, Dustin and my Grandparents! We took some pics of us 3 pregnant girls...Shauna and Kelly's baby showers are the next 2 weekends! And then Keegan and Caleb will be arriving!

On the 4th of July, we headed to Uncle Kevin and Aunt Casi's beautiful house on Lake Stevens. We did some boating, tubing, wakeboarding, jet-skiing, swimming, floating etc. No worries, this pregnant lady did nothing that could result in injury (well for me, even walking can cause harm, but no major water sports for me!). Ryan and I taught Josh and McKenzie to swim, and even had them jumping off the dock and swimming to shore. It was pretty entertaining. The fireworks on Lake Stevens were pretty amazing, and Kevin had gotten a lot for us. The teen boys had a blast setting them off on the deck, under the supervision of the pyro, Noah.

Sunday, Ryan and I went shopping at IKEA, Target and Babies R Us. We picked out some things we like, and are going to pick them up in the next few weeks. The babies room will be started soon! And July 22, we will find out if Baby French is a boy or girl! I am 18 weeks now, and my belly is growing! Still having headaches, but the new meds actually help. Thursday I will see a specialist about my gallbladder. Hoping for some answers, but there isn't much that can be done while pregnant.

I can't wait til the 22nd!
