School is almost out!~

we are now in the countdown to the last day of school. They have 12 1/2 days left and are so excited for summer. We are wrapping up soccer tomorrow morning (Thanks Goodness). we also have Cub Scout derby car races, that the boys are building cars for. The first week of summer Michael, Trace, and Austin will be at Cub Scout camp everyday from 8-4. Ethan and I will be at VBS at our church. We are also taking a vacation starting on July 10 and Trace is not thrilled to be on vacation for his birthday. I think he is scared he won't be getting a party and presents! We have had some big things going on this week. Ethan moved into his big boy bed and has slept 5 nights without complaint in it. The big boys have gone back to sharing a room and are on bunkbeds now. They love it. We also got a new mini-van this week, so I am super excited about that! There is so much room in there!

Doctor's appt.

I had another doctor's appt. in Wednesday April 29. They did an ultrasound and everything looks great. The baby was moving around and sucking his/her thumb. It was very exciting to see the baby and know that everything is great so far!

The little Peanut

We went to the doctor on Tuesday for my first appt. and everything looks good. He confirmed that I am due Nov. 11, and we even got to hear the heartbeat. He had no trouble finding it and it is was very strong. I go back May 12, so I will keep everybody posted on how that goes. Everyone is doing great. Austin and Trace are playing soccer on Saturdays and are having fun. Trace is involved in Cub Scouts and Michael recently took the job of Cubmaster for his group. They are in the process of building derby cars to race towards the end of the school year. I hope evryone is doing fine! Thanks for checking in!

Ethan cracks me up

Tonight Ethan and I were watching TV while Michael took the boys to Cub Scouts. The lady on TV was having a baby and I told Ethan "mommy is going to have a baby, too. it's in Mommy's belly". He lifted my shirt leaned over and looked in my belly button and said "HI". It was too cute. He has no clue what having a baby in you belly means, but it was still adorable!

Soccer

The boys had their first Upward soccer game on Saturday. I think they both had a good time and will hopefully get a little more involved in the game as the season goes on. Here are a few pics of their first day!

Another Tooth lost!

Trace lost his second tooth today. I wish I had a video of him when he realized it was coming out. I got a Kleenex and popped it out, but the blood always freaks him out! He was running around the house screaming and holding is breath! But as you can see in the picture he was quite proud a few hours later!

Ethan turned 2 on March 2! He is growing way too fast. He says so many words, which is a first for our family. After having 2 kids who were not so quick to speak it is an awesome experience to hear baby talk in the house! Some of his words are that guy, bye, hi, hey, all done, move, neigh, moo, doggie, duck, eat, night-night, kitty, mommy, daddy, bubba (brother), go, up, down.... just to name a few of my favorites. He had so much fun at his birthday party playing with all his cousins and friends!
