Getting ready for baby

We finally bought a crib for the baby on Saturday. Surprisingly, by Sunday night it was assembled and ready for our new little guy! Nathan helped Justin put it together and it was a lot easier to assemble than our previous crib.

Here are a couple of pictures of the assembly process as well as the boys' room. They will be sharing a bedroom once the baby gets a little bit older and I hope it works out well.

A visit with the General

One of the great things about living in this part of CA is that we are only about 2 hours away from the Sequoia National Park. The road to the park is very curvy and all uphill but it is beautiful!

A couple of weekends ago we were talking with the kids about the largest tree in the world and they wanted to see it. So, we packed some snacks and dressed in warm clothes and took a little trip.

It was a beautiful day and not actually that cold but there was still snow on the ground. The kids got to play in the snow and of course, visit General Sherman. I almost slipped on the ice a couple of times which would not have been a good thing for a 35 week pregnant woman to do! Thankfully, I remained on my feet the whole time.

The kids tried to pretend they were unimpressed by General Sherman but I know they loved it! There are some other areas of the park we still need to explore but they are closed for the season right now. We will definitely be doing some hiking and exploring after the baby comes! Yosemite is not far away from us either and we can't wait to visit there as well.

Last visit to NV until after baby arrives

We decided to take a short trip to Fallon to visit our family before our new little guy arrives. It was a pretty quick trip up ( about 6 hours ) and the weather was beautiful! It was great to see all of our family, even if it was a very short trip! I can't wait to visit them again to introduce them to the newest addition to our family. I didn't get many pictures because I forgot my camera and

only had my phone.

Oh, we also got to do a little shopping at the outlets

in Sparks. I got a TON of baby stuff from Carter's and

Osh Kosh since they were offering 40% off their clearance!

You all know I love a good bargain!! We also went to the

mall in Reno and stocked up on some NV Wolf Pack gear!
