April Update: Spring is Here!

Our beautiful girl....

Happy Spring!!! We are so enjoying this mild weather we have been having. Just nice enough to be outside in short sleeves without having to break out the sunscreen. We got the biggest storm we have ever seen last week. It rained 8 and 1/2 inches in 8 hours. Lightening, thunder, and hail! It washed our driveway out horribly so now we have to drive on the neighbor's grass, which is turning into a mud hole as well. We got another 5 inches yesterday. Brecken waited by the door nearly all day to go out...:( The grass is green and the flowers and trees are blooming which is beautiful. We have a lot of bumble bees hanging around our house, which is a beautiful site.

John is speeding through his training now. He is back in groundschool and just finished a test on navigation, which everyone says is a real bear. He scored a 98%, not surprising to me, but hey what can I say....I know how to pick 'em. He is doing his simulators now on navigations and will be doing those for a couple of weeks. After that he will be back to flying. He should be done with this school by the end of April!!

I am now 33 weeks and the doctor says I am measuring a week early, so we will wait and see what happens. I am feeling good and keeping busy chasing Miss Brecken around. We found out that we will be able to have the baby here, so that is good news. We will be getting our orders probably at the end of April and John will be able to stay home with me til the baby is born. We will probably be moving a couple weeks after Baylen is born...sound familiar? I am getting really good at decorating houses...ha!

Brecken seems to be growing an inch a day. She is getting so big and makes me laugh everyday! She has learned how to whistle and loves to read books! She is constantly on the go and is so smart. She met a new friend who is a month older then her and we have playdates about once a week. I think her favorite things are kids and puppies...along with mommy and daddy!!! What a joy she is to us and we thank YHWH everyday for her!
I hope everyone is doing well and we are hoping that our next blog update Miss Baylen will be born and Miss Brecken will be a big sister!

OUR FABULOUS FAMILY PHOTOS

A little family photo...not too much longer before we will add another one!

Caught in the chocolate...mommy left the spatula too close to the edge of the counter and Brecken was delighted to have chocolate for breakfast. I caught her sneaking licks behind the columns in our dining room!

We have a little baby pool sitting out on our deck...the weather is not quite nice enough for swimming suits, but if you ask Brecken she will say,
"Hey, who needs them."

Here she is digging up a storm in the sand. She loves the beach a whole lot and gets so excited when she hears the waves.

Grandpa Marv and Grandma Barbie came to visit us. We had such a good time. Brecken took them to the beach to show off her digging and wading skills.

Many of you have been wanting a tummy shot...well here it is. I am getting a little bigger everyday, but feeling wonderful.

Grandma and Grandpa are walking Brecken down our driveway...she can hear the neighbor's dogs from a mile away. Her face lights up and down the path she goes...taking everyone with her that she can find!

Brecken loves going to the park...as for the swing, she is not sure about that. She always wants to get in it, then once she is in she wants out.

Brecken absolutely loves to go and visit the neighbor's house. They have 9 dogs, 3 chickens, 5 horses, 1 pig, and 6 children. You can see why she loves it so much!!
