well, looks like spring is over. it was nice while it lasted.
it has been so chilly here the last couple days. and very windy. and i mean crazy, take-your-breath-away, rexburg windy. it's nasty. the other night it was rainy so i tried tanks rain jacket on him. but it turns out he has grown out of this one. 
funny tank story:
last night our bishop and his 1st counselor came to meet us. tank is pretty lazy most of the day. but he gets excited when we come home or when someone comes to the door. that's when he gets his toys out and runs around. tank was sleeping peacefully until our bishop rang the door bell. then he got all stupid and decided it would be a good time to bring out prayer bear.
now i don't even know where prayer bear came from. i know we didn't buy it. but tank has had it since he was little. it's a stuffed animal that is a bear kneeling and praying. and tank has decided that she is his girlfriend. tank likes to have his way with prayer bear, if you catch my drift. it's ironic that he picked a righteous bear to do such things with.
my heart sunk when i saw tank trotting into the room with prayer bear. that is just what you want your bishop to see...your horny dog. matt couldn't see the problem because tank was behind him. so i interrupted the conversation to tell matt that to grab prayer bear. matt quickly stole away the bear from tank and threw it down the hall. that was the big mistake. he should have put the bear up out of tanks reach. but he panicked. our bishop thought that the bear was chets and implied that was the reason we had taken it away from tank. matt and i knew that wasn't why, but we both kind of agreed with him so we didn't have to explain that tank actually likes to romp with that bear.
unfortunately while we returned to our visit with our bishop tank trotted down the hall, grabbed prayer bear, brought him back to the main room, and proceeded to do what he does best. right in front of our bishop! it was awkward. so now our bishop knows that we have a fornicating dog and that we lied to him about it! dang it.
we take so many pictures of chet. it's funny because we haven't taken hardly any pictures this past year. but now that chet is here we are always snapping shots. he is growing everyday though, so i want to make sure that we document all his changes. here are some of my favorite parts of chet right now...
his chubby cheeks.
his skinny legs. (the diaper bum makes them look extra skinny).
his double chin. (i'm not generally a fan of double chins, but his has won my heart!).
and well...everything else.
chet is officially 'due'. his due date was yesterday. i can't beleive that he could technically still be inside me. oh my! i would have died if i had to push this monster out. 4lb 8oz was more then enough for me! hats off to those girls who push out more then i had to. i don't know how you did it.
HAPPY DUE DATE CHET!
