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.
