Swim Class

Abby and I are ready for swim class!
Photobucket

This is one of my absolute favorite activities in our week.  Abby loves swimming so much!  She gets so excited to go and has improved so much since we started!
Photobucket

This is probably one of our last classes.  It just makes me want to cry, but with the baby's arrival getting so close we will have to take a little water break.  I hope we can get back to it very soon!

36 Weeks

I'm 36 weeks!  We haven't had any complications, except gestational diabetes.  The doctors are saying this little boy is big.  I think he'll be about 8 pounds 5 ounces.  I can't wait to see!  I think it'll be anytime now, I've had a few contractions.  Aiden was born at 37 weeks.

So glad my Mom is here helping now!!!  I don't know what I would do without the amazing grandparents my babies have!

Happy Birthday Patrick!

Aiden and Anthony planned a birthday party for their Daddy!  Aiden wanted his Daddy to have a farm birthday because Daddy loves chickens.

Nan helped Aiden, Anthony, and Abby make a cake.

Bucket List Complete!

Well, school has begun and today we finally marked off the rest of our Bailey Family Summer Bucket List!  We started the day by finishing a project that has been seven years in the making.  Patrick and the children put a stain on our box we keep our shoes in.

Then, today was the grand opening of McDonald's in Sugar Grove. 
Photobucket

We had a quick lunch and then got to dance with Ronald McDonald.  Abby loved it!
Photobucket

Finally, to our bucket list item!  We wanted to see a baseball game!  Getting ready!
Photobucket

Oh no!  Rain delay!
Photobucket

Making the most of our seats while we wait!!!  (Also a very good picture of my daily life.)
Photobucket

Yay!  We're gonna play ball now!
Photobucket

Well, she almost made it.

We will definitely be doing the baseball thing again.  The local team is the Kaneland Cougars.  It was a fun experience!  The night we went was Star Wars night.  We were supposed to get to see fireworks with Star Wars music, but because of the rain delay and the city curfew we didn't get to have fireworks.  I'm not sure who was more disappointed the boys or Patrick and I.  It was definitely a close race on that one! 

Bucket list complete!  We had an awesome summer!!!
