Well things have been pretty busy around here, but am going to catch up on all that has been going on. It has been nice staying so busy, the last month or so has really flown by.
Joe and I have lived in Colorado now for just about 4 years. It will be 4 years in September. And the whole time we have lived here we have just had one vehicle. So I have pretty much been without a car for 4 years. Joe did have a few jobs where he would carpool so I did have his truck once in awhile. Well I am excited to say I finally have a car of my own. We have worked really hard this year to pay off some debt and lower our overhead in order to afford to get me a car. It is so nice. I think we got a really good deal on a really good car. I really prayed that the Lord would provide us a good car that we could afford. It was definitely needful with the new baby coming and Luke getting older. I want to start getting him into some activities and hopefully put him in pre-school this fall.
So here it is, a picture of my new car!!!!!
Also this month my good friend Heidi came out to visit me from Washington. It was so great to see her. She was here for about 5 day. W mainly just hung out around the house and talked and went for walks every night. 
The weekend she was here we took her to Telluride, which is about an hour from our house. It is kinda a little tourist town. It was a beautiful day with beautiful scenery.
A sweet picture of Joe and Luke

Thought I would share this too, a picture of a quilt I made for a friend of mine who just had a little girl. I think it turned out really good. It was a lot of fun making it. 
So at the beginning of the month we also had more company. Our friends Rob and Cherisse and there little girl Jenna came out to Colorado for a wedding, so we got to see them. The last time we saw them was when Luke was 4 months old. It was great to see them again and spend a few hours with them.

Well here is a 30 week prego pic of me. I am actually 32 weeks now!!!! Only 8 weeks to go!!! Guess I should have Joe take another pic. I am feeling pretty good. I am feeling big and starting to get uncomfortable. Strangers always ask me "Oh when are you due?" I say September and they give me this look with wide eyes and say "OH really" I just smile and say yup, but inside I am thinking "thanks alot, do I really look that big?" Oh well I guess I am just to that point where I am going to be big from here on out. My mom will be here in about 6 weeks, so I can't wait for that and then will only have to wait 2 more weeks for baby. So just starting to get things ready around the house and try to enjoy the rest of the summer!!!

You look great! Can't wait to see this new bundle of JOY! Congrats on the new car too!
That looks like a nice car, and I love the quilt! It's so beautiful. I agree with you that it turned out really well. Those are good pictures, I could write something about each of them, but rather, I will just let you know that I really like them, and I enjoyed this whole post.
It's nice to hear from you again! That's great that you finally get a car. I know what it's like to be without a car. When we were first married we only had one vehicle. I had to walk everywhere in town I wanted to go. Thank goodness Brownsville is such a small town!
That's so great that you got to see Rob and Cherisse. I'm a little envious! I would love to see them again and get to visit with them for awhile.
So good to have you back! I love your car. That's great, I know you're excited. And you look great, all baby.
You look good. I can't believe that you are so close. Our prayers are with you. Sounds like the last while has been good for you. And a car.....wonderful.
You looks great. Sounds like you have been busy.
Beth,
I dont' think you look very large at all. But you do look very healthy. The car looks fantastic. I am stuck in mini-van land for a few more years but when the boys are driving - Watch OUT!! I will be one of the run around ladies for sure! Glad Robbie & Cherisse got to come see you guys. I was pretty surprised when I saw them at the wedding. Amy is starting Preschool in the fall too. I have to go to some silly meeting in Aug or they wont let her in! The Nerve!
So nice to hear from you again! :)
Don't you sometimes just want to tell people, "Look - I had a baby less than a year ago." when they give you those wide-eyed looks? I do... but I just smile and thank the Lord for another opportunity to be huge(er). :)
I know I'm much more huge than I was last time - I have a girlfriend who is due when you are, and she and I look about the same size - and I'm 7 weeks behind her! (chuckle)
Grow that baby big and strong - I'm eager to be where you are... are you inducing, btw?
YEAH! I'm so happy for you that you got a car! Happy day! You look great! Glad all is going well. It was great to get a little catch up!
I LOVE the quilt.
You look beautiful!
The pics and updates are all great and interesting.
You look so happy!!!!
YAY!
That is a beautiful quilt! Makes me want to pic up sewing again. You look great too! <3
Remembering you! We are praying.
