Hello Again!

It’s been a while since I’ve had a chance to actually sit down long enough to put sentences together and write a new blog.  So, after a little hiatus, I am back and ready to thrill you all (maybe 5 followers) with my amazing stories and comic genius.

Since the last time I wrote I have taken a huge test to help advance me in my career and failed (Don’t worry, I will take it again and pass this time!), gone on a camping trip with my family (6 months pregnant mind you!),  had one kid start T-Ball, another continue with his karate (on the same night as T-ball of course), prepare  for our garage sale this weekend, and have gotten to see our little baby girl through 3D/4D ultrasound.

I’ve been busy to say the least, but when you are pregnant I find keeping busy makes the days go by a little quicker.

We went camping a couple weekends ago and it was so much fun. We didn’t have a t.v. or our electronic devices to distract us from purely enjoying each other’s’ company. We may have gotten a little sweaty and I’m sure we didn’t always smell so pleasant, but being able to sit around the fire and see the smiles on my boys’ faces was almost magical. I have such fond memories from my own childhood of how we often went on camping trips as a little fun and inexpensive family getaway. This little weekend mini-vacation didn’t disappoint. I will never say that my family is rich in material ways, and we can’t afford to go on week long vacations often or even spend the money to have expensive weekends away, so this cheap little trip was just what our family needed. Justin and I were able to sit and laugh at some of the things our kids would say and listen attentively to them tell us stories about the things they discovered on our hikes. I wouldn’t trade that short little weekend for anything.

Our little girl is super active and is constantly moving around. It is my favorite part of being pregnant, although, it does become a little distracting when I’m trying to get things done at work. I was able to see her wiggle and kick yesterday at a 3D/4D ultrasound, and let’s just say, God is truly an amazing artist and creator. I’m in awe of her little cheeks that are getting chubbier with each passing day and I was even able to see her cute little mouth that reminds me of my boys’. Within the next week or two we will be starting work on her room. You can only imagine that a mom of 3 boys and who is now finally getting a girl has some ideas in mind! I can’t wait to show you our progress .
