the summer buzz

this week's weather was a bit crazy... rain, hail, wind and lots of sun. We went swimming on Thursday, Friday and Saturday.. all at different pools with different friends. Too bad we didn't take any pictures. When Saturday night came around, we decided it was time for the summer buzzes. We should have waiting until Monday so the boys could sport mohawks for a few days, but mohawks are overrated.
I was able to snap a couple of pictures of the baldies in their shirts and ties right before we hopped in the car... and I will have you know that I was late to church for these priceless pictures. I got two shots of the kids together. One of Simon not looking at the camera...
and one with Simon looking & the other boys with their eyes closed. You can't win 'em all.

Today was a crazy Sunday for me. I woke up with a headache, took some medicine and felt okay while getting ready for church. In the middle of Sacrament meeting, the mild headache turned into a migraine. It was literally so bad that I couldn't see straight. Such a weird experience... and a little scary. I received a Priesthood blessing, slept for most of the day and I am feeling much better now. I have only had one other migraine in my life (during my pregnancy with Zack) and I hope it doesn't happen again any time soon. I REALLY sympathize with people who get them all the time... I honestly couldn't do anything but lay in bed with a pillow over my head. It's amazing how much a "little headache" can cripple you!

Here's to good health, miraculous eye sight and a happy week.

PS. I hit my 20 week mark. We're half way there. I am feeling the baby move all the time. We are getting so excited for a little girl! Now we just need to decide on a name and a doctor. :)

with four boys, good luck EVER getting a picture where they are all smiling and looking! Your boys are all looking so handsome and grown up - and I love the buzz cuts. Time to do that at our house too!
And i'm sorry to hear about your migrain. Never had one myself (knocking on wood right now), but I've been nearly incapacitated by just a regular tension headache, so I can't even imagine (and don't want to!).
Have a good day!
