Some cute pics of the kids:

He loves getting his hair done by dad these days. He's so grown up.

Our little Ruthie Bear gave her first talk a few weeks ago. She did a fabulous job, even though we only had it prepared two days in advance. The topic was "Jesus Christ teaches me to choose the right." We found pictures of Jesus' life and then she would say, "Jesus teaches me to choose the right and to get baptised" or whatever the picture was of. She had it all memorized so I just had to show her the picture, to remind her what came next, before holding it up for the rest of the primary to see.

I've been having tons of contractions in the evenings, for three days now. I remember that being the case with Ruth. I was madly timing contractions and always disappointed they only lasted 30 seconds. So far these are lasting up to about 10 and only a few minutes apart, but once I go to bed they slow down. Also, baby dropped the other night. It was the first time I had actually experienced the baby dropping...like I literally felt her working her way down and out of my ribs, it was super uncomfortable but cool. I'm feeling like there's no way I'm making it to our due date of May 31st, but we'll see.
