Update

I finally have the nursery done (pics below). It turned out really cute. It was quite a process though. I originally painted different stripes on the walls. After 4 plus hours of measuring, taping and painting, I took off the tape and hated the stripes. So I started over. I also had intentions of leaving the queen bed in there, but the room is too small for that and the crib and chair. After all the tweaking, it's done and I love it. I'm relived to have it done so quickly. It only took a few days, but if I waited much longer I don't think physically I could have finished it. All the room needs is Maya.

Adam and Jack love their new beds (pic below). When we first got them, I had the beds on bed frames. After deciding it was too high (okay, after Chad decided they were too high) we put the beds on the floor. It's funny because every time it's nap or bedtime, we go in their room and I say, "get in bed." Each time they get in a different bed. They even have snuggled once in the same bed, which last all of 2 minutes.

We've been playing outside a lot lately. It's so nice for the boys to burn that energy off. We have this little plastic slide that they love to climb up and down. And the swing is always a hit. Jack used to be scared of going high, but now he loves it. The higher the better. The biggest hit is the sprinkler. I turn it on really low and they walk over it. I'll have to take pics next time.

Twins for the twins!

Maya's room

Just like Mommy!

It's up!

Here is a pic of our new fence. We still need to stain it white when the weather gets warmer. I'm so happy with it. Now I don't have to worry about the boys running in the alley. We are still waiting for out patio chairs to arrive, which should be coming in the next couple weeks. Once the weeds are pulled and the flowers are potted the yard will be finished. I can't wait to enjoy it!

Ahhhh, 75 and sunny!

I love spring! Today it was 75 and gorgeous out. Courtney and I took the kiddo's to the local park. They all had so much fun. We took a long walk in the woods, played on the jungle gym, went down the slide, had juice boxes and cookies. They were in heaven. The down fall?....Dirty, dirty, boys. Head to toe filthy. Typical boys.

Outside fun!

Grandpa love!

Where have I been??

Wow, it's been awhile since I've posted. Since the weather is getting warmer, the boys and I are trying to be outside as much as possible. Which means less time for me to be on the computer. Also, the boys are so interested in the computer that ever time I try to get on it they come over and try to climb on my lap or press on the keyboard. Okay, enough of my excuses. Do you forgive me?

We have been busy over here. We had the last of our guests a week ago. Bob and Nancy came for a week. We had a good time. We played cards, bowled on the Wii, played outside and did house projects. Not too exciting, but it was nice for them to see the boys and for Bob to see our new house. Now that Skybus is no longer around, I know our visits will be more limited. It was nice while it lasted.

I'm so excited to FINALLY say I am getting my fence. I know I've been talking about this so called "fence" forever. Well, the posts are cemented in and it should be finished by Saturday. Of course, Saturday calls for rain... Trying to watch the boys outside is quite a challenge. With our driveway backing up to the alley and the boys running in opposite directions, it's too much to handle. Especially when I want to sit in a chair, soak up some rays and drink a lemonade ;)

The boys are so much fun lately. Jack is still my talker. He's always "talking" about something. He likes to repeat words I say and like to count up to number 4. Adam is still my physical boy. He's always mimicking me and very active. His favorite word is "car". Everything is "car". I asked Jack his name the other day and he said "Jack". I asked Adam his name and he said "car". It was so cute.

The baby is doing great. When I was pregnant with the boys, I felt mostly kicks from them. Clearly, they didn't have as much room as the baby does. But the baby is not only kicking me, she's doing gymnastics in there! Chad and I have a name that we are 95% sure on. It's Maya Kate. It's always such a big decision on the official name, but so far that's the name we like the best. Her nursery is finished, in my mind, of course. I have bought all the decorations, bedding, accessories, and paint. Now, I just need to do it. I'll post pictures as soon as I am finished.

Nothing else is really new. Chad's job is going well. He hasn't been traveling as much lately and has been getting home in time to see the boys and play before bedtime. As for me, well, I'm 30. That's right the big 3-0! I love it. I love that I have a great husband, 2 boys, baby girl on the way, dog, cat, fish, wonderful home, ...... I could go on and on about how blessed I am and love where I'm at in my life.
