Welcome to Bolton's Business! We are quickly approaching a family of 6 with lots of fun things going on. We hope you will check back in with us often and update us with your comings and goings and pictures too!
Love us - Jared, Kathryn, Ally(5), Sam(3), Gary(2), Joseph(Brand New!)
I am aware that this has the same title as it did last time. We had a great week. There were a couple of highlights. On Friday we had a ward party for a gentelman in our ward named Brother Huntington. He just turned 90. He is a spritual GENTLE giant. He is always saying that he is not sure why the Lord has left him around so long, but I am sure it is for the benefit of our ward. He continues to teach us great lessons and we love him.
Last night was the Women's General Conf. session. It was great. I especially loved President Uchtdorf's talk. When he talked about "creating" it opened up my eyes. I have always loved to have projects and create all sorts of crazy things (and been mocked for it by the way), but now I know why. The entire talk made me feel good.
Today the Bishop talked in Sacrament meeting about reverence and our family needed it. I have the excuse that it is hard and I am trying to do it alone, but there is a lot that we can and should teach the kids.
All in all, it was a good week, and we look forward to sending baby pictures next week. I have included a picture of Jared on his scooter! He looks a little silly, but he loves it, and I love 80 per gallon!
Well, yesterday was the big doctor's apointment and I am not dialated - SHOCKER! However, I did think that I was going into labor on Suday night. Regardless, I am still very pregnant, but feeling pretty good! Jared and the kids are being angelic and life is great.
If you know me, you might know that I am famous for coming up with projects. Poor Jared gets stuck with all the work. I thought I would show you a picture of my last project (top right hand corner). I have always wanted to grow herbs in my kitchen. I just needed a place to do it. Jared is great with wood and takes good care of me. They are growing quickly and I can't wait until they are ready to use!
Only 17 days left until the due date! The kids are very excited. However, they must not really know what is going on. If they did, they would be a little kinder to their mother and let her rest a little more. As you can tell from the "sugar incident" in the top right hand corner, there is still plenty of mischief going on in my house, even at 9 months pregnant, even with no clothes that properly fit anymore, and even with an energy level of 0! But life is good!
Yeah!! Welcome little Joseph!! You look so good in your pictures...its not fair! I usually look prego for the next three months after! Allie looks like she could be quite the moma's little helper. Hope you are getting sleep and that you are enjoying your little "breath of Heaven."
Love Hol
Unfortunately, He has has to ride it to church because he goes to meetings before and after we do.
I am laughing now not that you are still pregnant but that you sound just like me last November!! I am also laughing at how being big and full and ready to pop that makes want to get that kid out and when your doctor says your not moving towards getting that kid out you want to reach and grab him by the neck!
Hang in there keep the projects coming and get it all done or else you will never get them done after that baby is here!!
Love ya Holly
