30 weeks


A belly shot for my family n friends that are far away! I can't believe how fast time soars by. We will have another little girl to love in just over two months.
Brynlyn is so excited for her baby sister to arrive, she is always putting her blankie over my belly, kissing her baby, singing and telling her all the things she will "learn her about"!
Update on me... I am doing well, I have started having contractions already so the doc told me to take it easy, stay hydrated and no lifting!
Brynlyn has been such a sweetheart about this and asks to hold things so baby can be safe!
I am having crazy problems with my hips from all the added weight I am carrying in the front so I get to wear a funny looking brace, that Brynlyn reminds me to put on each day.... but it really helps!
Also, we are loving our new house - but sure miss Uncle Richard and our old neighborhood a ton.
We just got a new twin bed for Brynlyn that will be here any day so her toddler bed can turn back into a crib soon.

Easter Egg Pic's

Brynlyn's new smile is more like a glare/surprise look! She was very proud of the eggs that she colored almost by herself!
A little help from dad with the dipper!

Drawing on the eggs at our lovely folding kitchen table for the moment.

New House Pics.. finally!

A huge turnout of family and friends to help us move! We were completely moved in under 4 hours. THank you EVERYBODY!!!
Brynlyn got to hang out with Grammy for the day... they went to Youth Conference to see Grampy. In the afternoon Grammy brought her to the house, and she was soooo excited that all her toys had moved to her new room and her swingset was in the backyard.
What a busy weekend!

I've had numerous people come over a few hours at a time, helping me lift, unpack and move boxes here or there! Thank YOU to everyone for your support and strength.

I have promised family n friends that I would get some pics posted of our new home!


Here they are... So many boxes everywhere - but we are so excited to be in our new home. Chad has been working hard each night to resurface the garage floor with lots of help from his friend Jeremy. Brynlyn had to get in on the action with her gardening tools!


I am slowly unpacking a stack of boxes at a time, but the pile seems to have grown because Chad emptied the garage into the front room.


We've had a great week in our new home and are so thankful for everyones help.

Evacuated last night...

Evacuated last night from our new home, we have not even lived here a week!
Police were called to a home near us yesterday around noon and found a suspicious substance.
60 homes were evacuated about 11:30 last night for about 19 hours because of the possibility of dangerous chemicals. We were allowed to return to our home at 7:00 this morning.
Police, the ATF and FBI are still set up in our area.
What a night, and a crazy thing to happen. As I was loading the truck a fox5 camera crew approached me and asked to do an interview... so I am on the news in my PJ's... kinda silly!
We are back at home this morning after a sleepover and pancakes at Grammy's house.
