October is finally here!

But sadly our baby isn't :(  we have been busy waiting for him though--anything to pass the time until his arrival :)

Three Saturdays ago (I know, I'm terrible at posting!) my cute friends had a fun baby shower for me.  I got to see some dear friends and we had a great time eating and talking!  It was way super fun and everyone gave us such nice things.  I am so blessed to have such wonderful friends!

Two Saturdays ago, Whit went fishing with his friend.  He caught one of the biggest fish ever!  Does he look happy or what?  :)

While he was away, I went down to my parent's house and spent the day with them.  My dad was busy harvesting honey, and unfortunately got stung a few times in his hand!  It swelled up quite a bit--but I still think my ankles take the prize!

Isn't that one bee huge?  I'm still working on photography skills, but you can kind of get the idea that he is about twice as big as all of the other bees.  It was crazy to see!  So, I had a fun time hanging out with mum and dad and we all went to the Relief Society broadcast together that evening.  It was a wonderful day.

Then this Saturday was conference!  I absolutely love general conference!  Whit and I watched the morning session together and then went for a little walk around the neighborhood.  Then my family came over, they all went to the session at the conference center and came to our place after.  We all went to lunch at one of our favorite thai restaurants.  Then Whit had to go into work for a few hours and my family stayed with me and watched the afternoon session at our place.  Then we went for a walk around Daybreak to take advantage of the beautiful yet windy weather.  :)  I tried to take some great family photos, but like I said, I'm still learning.  After reviewing these, I have decided that it's best to wait for a non-windy day, and it's good if you don't take people's pictures while they are staring into the sun.  But it does make for some classic Christensen photos, that's for sure!  :)

Aren't my dad's sunglasses the best?  He says he takes the title of grandpa very seriously and has started dressing the part :)  It was really fun to spend the day with family.  Whit went to priesthood with his brother, and they went to dinner after, so that is fun too.  We are so lucky that we live close to family!

Well, that's about it.  We are happy and healthy and hopeful that the baby will come soon.  We don't seem anxious at all, do we?  :)
