Almost A Family of Four!

The end of May brings the beginning of June and the start of a new chapter for the Harmon's. We are anxiously awaiting the arrival of or sweet Violet.
Violet has thrown some curve balls our way right toward the end. I have had gallbladder trouble a few times, but have been good with my diet, and have for the most part been symptom free. I was going for a massage on the 25 of May and had a really bad attack. The next day I had really dark urine and uncontrollable itching all over with no rash. My gallbladder was causing some problems with my liver, nothing too serious. Dr. Sepesi wants me on a strict gallbladder diet and drink lots of water. If I have another gall bladder attack there possibility of Violet having to be delivered ASAP is pretty high due to the stress it puts on the liver. I am hoping to avoid that. In addition to sticking to the gall bladder diet, I am also eating grapes because the gall bladder site said they were good for the gallbladder. Here's to hopin'! The ultrasound we had to see if Violet was in good position for delivery and a good weight showed there was low fluid, but a trip to the specialist brought good news! Fluid level was great! We are a go for a VBAC! So we are officially waiting for Violet to make a move...
I have nested the past few weeks and the house is in order and ready for our new arrival. Nozt sure that we are as ready as the house is, but this will be another fun adventure.




 I had a delightful Mother's Day. We took a picture by the tree we got last Mother's Day, tradition...I think this is the start of one...

Katie has taken to making things up for what we do each day. My favorite are the times where she says something completely off the wall. Jake asked her the other day what we did and her reply was "We went to see Peno and Bennett." They are our good friend's dogs that we watch when they go out of town. We did not go see them or even talk about them this day, but they were on Katie's mind.

Katie has also started potty training. She has taken to it pretty well. She has pooped and peed in the potty already and is pretty motivated my dum dum suckers right now. We sit and try a couple of times a day and she is very proud of herself. She has the feeling down, now we just have to get the timing right. Such a big girl! We are so proud of her! 




We got to watch our good friends Cutler and Julia get married:) They're a great match. It was a perfect wedding and very fitting for them. We got to see our old counselor friends. It was a reunion of sorts:) Everyone I cared to see anyway! HA! 


 I dare say Jake is smiling! Gotta keep this one! 

 Good times!

 Brett, Catherine, and LeAndra!!

 Brett decided to be the photographer for the evening...
 ESP (The Good) Counselor Reunion!

 LeAndra was apparently attacked by her own dress...

Catherine, Baby T, and LeAndra!!



Jake went and put his boots on to work on getting the lawnmower fixed and the grass mowed, thankfully Ninny had just recently sent some boots in some clothes she had found for Katie. Katie went and got her boots and had to have her boots on to go help Daddy. That girl loves her Daddy! And helping! Such a sweet one!
*Nothing is more frustrating than getting the lawnmower fixed only to have a belt break on the first pass through.* I am sure there were more than a few choice words said, glad Katie had come it already.
We are sure glad Jake is so handy around the house! He likes to fix things:)
