Fireman Birthday Party

 Our friends, the Rexburg Potters (Andrew, Heidi, Hyrum, & Josiah), decided to have a way cool fireman birthday party this week and invited us and the "regular" Potters (Robert, Julie, Josh, Lilly, Johnny, & Katie) to join in the fun. We started the party off with a tour of the Rexburg fire station. The kids LOVED getting to climb inside both an ambulance and a fire truck. Above are the bigger kids: Lilly, Josh, Sam, Johnny, and Hyrum. 

 And on the outside as well.

 Best buddies: Josh and Sam!!

 Josh grabbed the fireman's helmet and stood this way posing until I noticed and finally took his picture :) The kids got to see the fireman put on all his gear and then we ended the tour with each kid getting to try spraying the fire hose hooked up to the fire hydrant!!

 After the tour, we went to the park and played until the free lunch. Then we did cupcakes and presents and ended the party with a ride on the carousel!! It was such a blast, thanks for inviting us, Potters!!

Not a whole lot else for this week. Daddy has been working hard bringing more dirt for the yard, but we have run into a few issues concerning some county requirements we were unaware of, so things are kind of at a halt until we figure out how to handle the situation. That and we are just hanging out waiting for baby boy to decide when he is going to make his grand appearance. At our appointment on Wednesday, he was at -3 station (high up), only 1 cm dilated (out of 10), and 50% effaced. But there has been plenty of "activity" the last few days, so we are hoping he will decide soon to come on his own. If we get to 40 weeks (this Wednesday), then we will most likely opt for an induction. Even though an induction isn't ideal for a VBAC, going past 40 weeks with a VBAC isn't a great option, either, so we are choosing the lesser of the two evils.
