Deserie is Home, 4 More Weeks

Chad's sister Deserie came home from her mission on Temple Square in Utah on Wednesday the 9th.  We had a homecoming dinner that evening that was a lot of fun.  It is good to have her home again.  My kids love her, so do Chad and I.  She is a good example to them.

Deserie had an appointment with her Stake President to get released right after the dinner so she was still dressed up, complete with name tag and she and kept a companion with her until her official release.  Karalee was excited to have Deserie home, one of the reasons being that we got to have a party.  I think she might even like parties more than I do.  That's saying something.

On another note.  I am 36 weeks along today.  Only 4 weeks left, give or take a little, until we get to meet our new baby girl!!

I still feel really good.  I walk a little over a mile and a half three times a week and ride my exercise bike and do light weights on my arms once or twice a week.   Hopefully that will help all the baby weight come off faster this time around.
