Football, Pictures, and Baby!

I have not been doing great at blogging lately, so I thought I would catch up. We went last week and had my brother take pictures of our kids. My brother is majoring in photography at Utah State. He wanted to practice and we wanted current pictures of our kids so it worked out really well. I think my brother has a lot of talent and will do well in this field. It was actually a fun session. I have dreaded pictures since McGregor was born. He has hated getting his pictures taken, hence the reason we don't have many professional ones done of him. He did so good with Tony. He had the funniest smile. I was laughing the whole time. Jarrett and Isabelle were probably harder this time than Mac, but it was all good. I am excited because Tony wants to come take some of the new baby when he comes.
Next news is Jarrett is a football player. I can't remember when was the first time Jarrett told us he wanted to play football and he is finally old enough. He has to practice every week night for 1 1/2 hours and we have games every Saturday now through October the 3rd. He loves it. He is probably one of the smallest on his team, but he is one of the hardest workers too. He plays a whole variety of positions on both defense and offense. His first game was this last Saturday. He had a lot of fun, but they lost 26-0. Some of the parents acted as though these kids were in the NFL already. I just laughed because they are 8 years old and they are just out there to have fun. It was pretty comical at some points.
Finally, I went to the doctor yesterday and he said that if this baby doesn't come on his own by next Tuesday he is going to start me. He wanted to start me on the 31st and I told him no, because it is Mac's birthday and Jarrett and Isabelle's first day of school. So Mac's birthday is Aug. 31st and our new addition's birthday will most likely be September 1st. Unless he decides to come on his own. I am a little nervous for the newborn stage and the getting up at all hours of the night. Mostly nervous about Mac's reaction when he figures out this baby is staying at our house and going to take some of his thunder. But I am so ready to be done with this pregnancy!!!! Oh yeah, pray that Ben and I can agree on a name for this little guy.
