We sadly weren't able to drive to Las Vegas for my nephew, Andrew's, 7th birthday party because my doctor recommended against it (I was already dilated to a 2 at my 33 week appointment and had to be started on medication to stop my contractions). We were all really disappointed we couldn't make it (especially Owen), so to slightly make up for it, my parents and sister Jess drove down to Arizona to visit for a few days after the party.

Here are the boys with Gigi & Poppop at church. If only we could have helpers every Sunday! It was so nice to be able to sit and actually listen to some of the talks :)

Here's a picture I snuck of Owen in singing time in primary when he was chosen to dress up as the prophet. He was really shy & timid at first until he caught me watching from the window. As soon as he saw me, he got really excited and waved and started singing along.
Poppop and Madden relaxing after church!

Aunty Jess got to come watch Owen at swim lessons on Monday and since his swim lessons are so close to the temple, we stopped and snapped a few pictures since Jess had never been. Owen was shivering from his wet swimsuit but that's okay!

The helmet Owen is wearing in the first picture is from cousin Andrew. It's a Lightning McQueen helmet (Owen's favorite) and Owen wore it every chance he could get while everyone was visiting.

My family was nice enough to bring down a new carseat for Madden when they came as well. It's skinny enough that we can fit three across in our Chevy Traverse, score!! Here's a picture of me taking in my new life...three car seats in a row.
Here are the boys with Gigi before everyone left. Boy do they love their GiGi! They weren't even out of the driveway before Owen said, "But I miss them. I want them to come back now."
We're so grateful they came to visit, even if it was just for a few days. We love you all so much!
