Summer has officially gone way too fast- I can't believe it's time for us to start our crazy adventure of baby & move!! Today, Kaylie Rae Rumsey decided she wanted to join our family a little early- so our precious little girl is here! 

She was born at 10:16 am, weighs 6 lbs 12 oz, and is 20 inches. She's so perfect and snugly. I'll post more details of the birth and pictures later.

This was me yesterday - 38 1/2 weeks

We will get to enjoy her all week and then on Saturday, August 3rd, Paul will load all of our stuff into the moving truck and on Monday we'll head out of town!  Even though we haven't enjoyed the winters here in Idaho Falls, we've really come to enjoy living here and will especially miss our friends. We've done so many fun things that I can't even start to mention them all, but here are a few from the last few weeks: 

We had a fun morning at the zoo with Decker &; Callie Eddie. It was so nice to just chat with Camie while we walked around. We have loved getting to know them since they moved into the ward last year and I'm going to miss morning walks, evening zumba, olympic parties, and watching our kids play together. 

Lyla and Lia Hendrix play so well together! They are so sweet together and can play for hours. 

Lyla loved doing dance this year with several friends- Brecklee Eddins

 and Allie Nielson &; Marie Myrup from our ward.

 One of the biggest blessings of moving here was getting to live right across the street from the Nielsons. Allie and Lyla are one year apart and very similar in personality, and Kyler and Trevor are about 7 months apart. We have had hundreds of playdates, zoo trips, walks in the mall to get out of the snow, swimming excursions. I almost feel like Allie and Kyler are my kids- I get emotional when I think of not having them over at our house anymore. Michelle has been such a lifesaver to me- we've watched each other's kids during dr's appointments, traded off so she could teach piano and I could work, and helped each other during our recent moves. It was such a tender mercy when they bought their new house just 1 mile from where we've been renting so we've been able to continue getting together and helping each other. Thank you Nielsons, for being such sweet friends! We will miss you all so much!
