I know it has been awhile since I have posted anything. I just can't seem to get caught up after moving into our new home. We do love it here so far. I did post a few recent pictures. We also just had our ultrasound today (darn insurance sure made us wait long enough), but we did find our that we are having a BOY. Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, we are sooooooooooooooooo excited. The baby looked healthy and beautiful and we just have 10 more weeks to go. Hopefully we can get our computer and office set up and I might get a little better about keeping up with our blog.

Michael has now turned 4. His birthday was May 27th and he had a great day, sort of. He was disappointed that he only got two presents, one of which was a new bike, and he thought his basketball cake that he asked for was too small. He was at least pleased with his yellow breakfast pancakes. It is hard to believe our baby is now four years old. What a wonderful boy he is.

This was a very exciting day...Braxton learned how to ride a 2-wheeler. Scot had been practicing with him the last couple of weeks, and mostly it ended in frustration. Then all of the sudden, he got the hang of it and took off. I was actually in the garage when I heard Braxton yelling my name. I frantically ran out thinking of what emergency I would face when there he was, as proud as could be, riding around in front of the house. He is now very mobile and asks everyday to ride around the block by himself.

We spent an evening at Riverside State Park and had to roast some marshmallows. Here is Michael roasting 3 of them and Braxton thinking it would be fun to roast a graham cracker. Our boyrs are so silly.

Here is my little baker making cookies for the family. These were the cutest pictures, I just had to put them on our blog.

I thought I would do a quick post and update all of our friends and family on our current situation. I have no way to download any pictures, so you will just have to hear from me. After a nice, long vacation in Utah, we headed up to Spokane, Washington to join Scot once again. We have been living in an extended stay and are very, very sick of it. Four of us in a one room hotel room for a total of 37 days. I believe it is a form of torture that we devised for ourselves somehow. We have found a home that we are excited about and are just waiting to close. We are thrilled about the idea of having a wash room (instead of a wash closet), a pantry and a 3-car garage. Braxton and Michael think it is great that it has a dog door. It needs a little work that we will be taking care of, but it helped to get a good deal on it, that and the economy helped a little. The boys want their toys back and I am looking forward to being settled once again. The baby and tummy are growing lots now. I am sorely disappointed that we have not been able to find out what we are having. We are going to wait to do the ultrasound until we actually have insurance. We do feel quite blessed to have found a home, that Scot has a good job (by the way, he is enjoying being an Anesthetist) and that we are safe and together again. We are glad to be expanding our family and we think we are really going to like it here in Spokane. We are now just waiting for some Spring weather, just like all of you.

We are moving! Currently the boys are in Utah with their grandparents and we are packing up like crazy and trying to get ready to make the long drive. We have loved our stay in Virginia and are going to miss our friends, our Ward and all the fun times and memories we created here. We want to thank everyone for their love, support and friendship. We will miss you Virginia.
