Josie Noelle Mower

We had our beautiful baby girl yesterday. She was born at 2:14 pm. She weighed 7lbs 1oz and was 19.5 inches long. Here is a picture of me and Josie. Laura took pictures for us in the delivery room, you can see more on Laura's family blog http://lpfarris.blogspot.com/.

Last Pregnancy Post

This is the last picture that I will be posting of my pregnant self. I am set to be induced bright and early Thursday morning, unless the baby decides to come earlier. We are so excited for our little girl to arrive, however I'm a little sad that I won't be pregnant anymore. I've really enjoyed being pregnant, I love feeling her move around inside, the whole thing is just such an amazing experience, I will miss it. Anyway... wish us luck, I'm sure we'll need it!

39 weeks and 2 days

The North Fork of the Payette

Russell went on the river this last Saturday, with my dad and uncle Ralph. The river is an extremely difficult one, a class V +. Russ rode on the back with my uncle ralph, he doesn't have enough experience to go by himself on something that big yet. They almost flipped and Russ got a minor injury on his leg, but he had a lot of fun!

Maternity Pictures

My sister Laura took these pictures of Russ and I last week (36 weeks preg). They turned out awesome! Check out her photography blog on my links to look at the other pictures she took.

Another Garden Update...

I wanted to quickly update everyone on Russ' ever expanding garden. It's getting huge and starting to produce lots of food. We're just starting to get green beans and they taste super good. Everything is getting huge and is outgrowing the fence Russ made. Russ is very proud of his creation, as you can tell.

Salt Water Taffy and Six Weeks To Go!

This a pretty random post. Russ and I actually did have a good weekend. On Friday we went rafting down the South Fork of the Boise, but I forgot my camera so I didn't get any pictures of Russ kayaking like I wanted to. We also went to dinner and then played miniature golf on Saturday night with some of our friends, so it was an enjoyable weekend. But these are the pictures we took. Russ and I stole some of Tara's taffy that she got from Costco, we figured that the bag was so big she wouldn't notice if we ate some. And then here's another picture update of my ever growing stomach. We've still got six weeks left until our little girl arrives!

Our weekend in Stanley

Last weekend Russ and I went to Stanley with my family. We had a good time relaxing at Redfish Lake and going for hikes. Russ rode the horses and I wanted to but I'm too pregnant to ride them, oh the sacrifices you make to carry a baby. Anyway, we had a really great time at my favorite place in the world.
