I know it's a day late, but we had a wild, busy Sunday. It's too good of a story to pass up, so get ready for a lengthy post.
I started out the morning excited for a "me" day and had the typical expectations of a perfect day ahead. The morning was a good one. Josh didn't have any meetings, so he was with us for a change and gave me the most thoughtful gifts. They were two "willow tree" figurines, one with a mom holding two boys just Ayden and Ian's sizes and another with a mom, dad and baby (for Afton, of course). I loved the gifts so much I cried-SURPRISE. This great morning soon turned sour at the end of our Sacrament meeting. Ian started crying toward the end (we only had about 5 minutes to go) so I had to leave with him. I left Ayden behind, but he somehow escaped and followed us to the bathroom. Ayden had to go poop, which ended up all over the back of his shirt-the shirt was big on him, and hung too low-and all over his back. As I'm trying to clean him up, Ian gets four brand new rolls of toilet paper, still in their wrapping, and stuffs them in one of the toilets. Robin gave me her house keys to get a shirt for Ayden, so I dropped Ian off to nursery-after washing everyone thoroughly of course-and took a shirtless Ayden with me to Aunt Robin's house. We found a shirt that matched great and went back to church. After one solid hour of mahem, it turned out to be a good day from then on out. We got home, ate a quick lunch and we all took a long nap. Then we headed to Robin & Brent's for a Mother's Day dinner that Josh and Brent cooked for us. Mimi was there too, and our friends Gerald and Paige joined in the fun. The dinner and the company was great, despite my irritability. I mean, I'm really trying to hold it all together, but this possibility of going into labor at any time is really starting to take it's toll on me. My mom is flying in late tonight. So seriously, kid, get born already. My next Doctor's visit is tomorrow morning. I HOPE I'm at 4cm and get admitted right away. I'm sure you'll hear from a dissapointed me tomorrow. I know it's only a week until my induction, but every night feels like an eternity.

Glad to hear MOST of your day was pleasent . Wow! Just one trip to the bathroom can change the course of an entire day! Crazy boys! Afton is going to have so
Much fun with her big brothers.
What a disaster {at the church}. I'm glad the before and after was good though!
I hope you hear good news at the doctor's today :-)
I hate poop. I really do. If only there were some way to NOT poop, but be healthy...sign my kids up!
I hope you are in labor right now and that your mom will be there on time and that you will have a FAST labor and a GREAT baby.
Congrats! How exciting! Baby girls are sooo sweet! I can't wait til December when our baby gets here!
