Camping at Foster Lake

This last weekend was really a treat... I got to spend it with my husband! :) We went camping with the Hall's to Foster Lake in Sweet Home, which is the same town that the Jamboree was in the week before. The weather was beautiful, not too hot (finally!), and we just got to relax, play games, and go out on the lake. Kyle has so many memories of summers spent at Foster Lake; it's where he spent a lot of his childhood, and it's fun to daydream about making those kinds of memories for our own kids...

Wakeboarding!



...and kneeboarding. Kyle was starting to think his body was a little too old for that one!

Tanner was a stud, he got up on the wakeski on the first try! It's basically a wakeboard with no bindings, and a lot more difficult.

All in all it was a really fun weekend! :)

Alright, so I've officially made it to week 10! It seems like the first trimester is passing by really slowly, but my friends just tell me not to worry because somehow the second and third trimesters just fly by and March will be here before we know it! At ten weeks baby officially graduates from an embryo to a fetus, which means the critical portion of development is complete--now all the tissue and organs will begin to rapidly grow and mature. Baby is about the size of a kumquat and weighs less than a quarter of an ounce! It's swallowing fluid and kicking up a storm. Vital organs like the kidneys, brain, intestines and liver (which is now producing red blood cells) are in place and starting to function. Tiny nails are starting to grow on fingers and toes, which are no longer webbed. Peach-fuzz hair is beginning to grow on the skin. The baby can also bend it's limbs, and spinal nerves are beginning to stretch out from the spinal cord. Pretty cool stuff! :)

Hope you are all having a great week!
