Our Last Family Night Before Baby

Time FLIES. We are less than half way through the summer and I'm already SO behind on all the fun things we've done. Graduation, the Circus, an awesome trip to visit my uncle in Kansas, and the list goes on. I will definately attempt an update on all of those things, but for now, I will focus on last night. Monday night. Family Night. Our kids talk about it all week, and when Monday comes they can't wait to start Family Night. Last night was our last Family Night before we will have the baby so we talked to the kids about what babies need and how they can be helpers. T-Man LOVED that I borrowed 'Bear" to be our 'practice baby'. Bug got to feed the baby. T got to learn how to put the diaper on. They both helped dress and doctor the baby. I was suprised at how well they did, and it made me really happy when they got really excited talking about all the ways we can show the baby we love him. They are going to be great siblings, and I couldn't have been blessed with a better family! Luckily Justin thought to take pictures in the middle (with my awesome new camera!!! YEAH...now to take classes to learn how to use it to it's full potential...posts to come...). My mom flew in last Tuesday so the kids have had a blast with G-ma Foli, and I can tell she is going to be a life saver entertaining the kids after the baby is here. I hope she doesn't set the expectation too high. :/
So here are the pictures of our last Family Night before the little guy gets here.
