We went to the Cabin for fathers day (and a few times earlier to get the water on).

Jeff could not do much fishing due to an occupational injury but we still had fun. Savannah pick edwildflowes for her mom and we watched the baby birds fly away. P.S. Nebo tried to steal the boat.

We had a blast in St. George over conference weekend, it was fun that the Matt Birch family and the Burt family could join us. Nebo even behaved! He did not even go in the house once! We flew kites, went swimming, napped, watched cable, and Jeff attempted to fish (it is not so easy when your are accompanied by a wife, an almost 4 year old, and the devil [aka Nebo]). We drove through a scary snowstorm on the way home which was so odd because we had just left sunshine and 80 degrees.

Savannah and I went to the zoo on Wednesday (if I sit down when I get home from work it's all over). It was a little chilly and only 2 hours before the zoo was closing which made it nice because there were very few people there. Savannah wanted to see the snakes and gators. Ask my parents about another little girl that liked gators. We also saw some baby monkeys, and a baby giraffe but no elephants.

When I was pregnant with Savannah we called her "pretty baby" and she is. Baby #2 is now "miracle baby". As I was leaving the hospital today I started to spot, just a tiny tiny bit, but I was going to go home and lay down and then call the Doctor if it didn't stop. As I was walking to my car I walked right past my Doctor getting out of her car. I have not even had a real visit with her but she is an old friend of Jeffs and I saw her a few times when I was pregnant with Savannah. Anyway. . . she asked how I was feeling and I told her that I was going home to lay down because of the specks of blood. Next thing I am following her into the hospital via the "special doctors entrance" and into the L&D locker room where she gets on the phone and gets me right in upstairs at Maternal-Fetal medicine for a viability ultrasound. Wow, talk about right place, right time, knowing the right people. Everything is OK, placenta is fine, baby is moving around just fine, and the blood is gone. I am sad that Jeff and Savannah could not be there to see this first image of our new family member but you cannot look a gift miracle in the mouth. Jeff said that Savannah said a prayer for the baby and when I got home she told me, "Mom, I probably saved the baby!". Kind of interesting to note that just the night before we had been reading the March edition of "the Friend" and talking about how Jesus can fix anything that is wrong with us if we have faith. Thanks babe for having the unconditional faith of a child.
