I have been working my boys like crazy this week! We cleaned out my craft room, moved all of their toys and clothes into thier side of the room, moved all of Dallins toys into the other room, bought rugs for the room and decorated it, cleaned out the storage room to make room for all of the things I had in the craft room (like Christmas decorations and stuff), filled the storage shelves with food and kept up on regular chores like watering the garden, cleaning the kitchen and doing laundry. We took a van load of stuff to the youth ranch and have allmost filled all 8 of our garbage cans outside. It has been awesome to get these things done, but today we took a break. First I took them to Krispy Kreme (I know we've never been there, sad huh?) They LOVED it and we stayed a while to watch them make doughnuts. Then we went to Setlers park in Meridian and played for two hours there. It was our first time there and it was a really fun park with lots of fountains and a huge playground. Then on the way home we stopped at a fruit stand on Ustick and they each got a pint of raspberries (thier FAVORITE) and we got cherries, peaches, cantelope, watermelon and a lime (Dallin just HAD to have this!). It was a very fun day and they really enjoyed the break from the house and all the work I've been having them do. I am so glad I have them to help me though. They carried out all the garbage and clothes and did a lot of things I couldn't physically do. They are great boys! I was so worried about Dallin moving to his new room. We made it really fun with a new carpet you can drive cars on and we moved all his toys in there and made it like a little playroom. It looks so fun and cute and all the boys play in there now! It was so full of beds before, there really wasn't room to play. And last night when he went to bed for the first time on his new bed I asked if he wanted me to lay by him (which I've done every night for like 2 years now) and he just said, "No mommy, this my bed. You lay in your bed" It was a bittersweet moment and it's like he grew up all of a sudden. He just went to sleep and didn't try to come out or anything! I miss him being my baby, but hooray for a new baby this fall!!!! I am so excited and now the nursery is ready to be painted and decorated! It seems like I am rushing things, but I just know getting ready for school (which starts on August 27th) and starting school and having two birthdays in between will take a lot of my time and energy and having the nursery all done will really help me to relax my last few weeks of pregnancy. I don't want to put it off. Well, I will post some pictures soon, especially the dirty boys ones from camping-they are awesome!

Seriously how do you do it all? And I can't believe you've never been to Krispy Kreme! Now your boys will be completely addicted. :) I had my first one when I was pregnant with Garrett. Mike had a convention to go to in Vegas so I went with him (the one and only time I will ever go there for sure!) and they had one in our hotel. Mmmm, it was so, so good. And so, so dangerous for a pregnant mommy! :)
