Trip to the Farmer’s Market
We recently went to the the Des Moines Farmer’s Market with my grandparents. It was a beautiful day and there were lots of people.
Denver got a big huge cookie. He saves his money in his little bank and then we take some coins down and he gets a cookie. This was his first time getting a chocolate chip cookie and it was a mess!
This picture shows how blue the sky was.
I love this picture! We brought Denver’s wagon but he wanted to walk so he has to hold someone’s hand.
Now this is what you call street evangelism. This guy was preaching in the street! Not sure if this how I’d approach it but he’s a brave guy!
After the Farmer’s Market we walked across this sweet bridge that is downtown Des Moines.
Before we left, I had Carson in the driver’s seat. I have a picture of Denver like this too so I thought I’d grab one of Denver.
All pictures were taken with my iPhone 3GS.

Baby Update #7 – Almost Done
A 7, then a 9/10! We are almost there! They say within the next hour we will have a baby! They are calling in the surgeons to set up the room. The baby is at a +1, meaning it is just down past the pelvis. Hopefully the next update will include a picture! P.S. Devin (Brooke’s sister) has left MN.

Baby Update #6 – The Calm Before The Storm
Well, Brooke is taking a nap now and I just got back from McDonalds (there is one in the hospital). So far, Brooke’s mom (Kennarae), my mom (Shiela), my brother (Trevor), my sister (Lacee), and my other sister (Jaysha) are here in the lobby waiting. I think Brooke’s dad (Darwin) and Brooke’s sister (Devin) will also be here soon. Brooke is still having contractions, big ones, but she can’t even tell. As I was writing this she mumbled, “I don’t feel so good.” Meaning upset tummy. I looked at the Fetal Monitor and she was maxed out on the contraction scale. A couple hours ago she would have been… well… lets say not so happy. Ok, I’m going to go now. I think this is the one time I should step away from the computer… :)

Baby Update #5
Epidural is in and Brooke is 100% better, they even told her she can take a little nap. Keep praying, things are good and her cervix is moving fast.

Baby Update #3
Ok, the latest is… the doctor came in and broke Brooke’s water. And starting around 10:00am they will start the pitocin in her IV to induce labor. Also the amniotic fluid was green meaning the baby went potty so pray it doesn’t swallow some or that can be bad. All else is good.

Baby Update #2
A little more news. Our first nurse had to go home so we have a new one now. She offered to let Brooke get in the wirlpool and of course Brooke accepted. The nurse also said the doctor will probably break her water when she gets here although we don’t know when that will be. More later…
