In the past 2 months......

So, in the past 2 months, our little family of four has grown! We know have 2 bunnies, 6 chickens and a rooster, 3 goats and a dog.

So, we are super excited to announce another baby is on the way too!


We are really enjoying our new place and all the adventures it is bringing. We are looking forward to having family come visit during the holiday's.



We had Kayla and her kids up for a visit and really enjoyed relaxing and having fun. We spent a fun day at the lake with them.



We then went down to Idaho Falls to visit Melinda and her family and got to see Kayla and her family again! It was such a great and relaxing time for us.



Katie is attending school out in Reardan and is really enjoying it. She loves everything but the bus ride. She begins her day at 5:45 when she gets up and gets ready and takes care of all the animals before the bus arrives at 6:45. She then gets home about 4 and does her evening chores. She is enjoying it and learning so much. We are pleasantly surprised with how she has taken her new responsibilities and owned them.



Tyson isn't attending preschool this year so we are having school together. We hit the library and couple times a week and have fun doing worksheets and painting. He is loving gymnastics and is excelling so fast. He is so excited to be a big brother. He adds big brother to everything he does. His newest is his big brother cart wheel!



Jake has been working hard and has proven himself to be the best of the best at work. He still holds the record as never having a student get caught during there evasion phase at work. He takes lots of pride in that! He is pretty amazing at his job. I just wish he didn't have to be gone so much from me :(



I'm pretty worthless these days....between not feeling well and having zero energy, my house has fallen victim to the evil twin of the cleaning fairy. I spend a lot of time on the coach and I am so thankful Katie can take care of Tyson so well!



I feel as though I'm loosing myself. I'm having a hard time finding the desire to do anything I used to enjoy. I haven't even touched the keys of my piano since I have moved, and my brand new cricket cake machine hasn't seen the outside of the box more then once.



I did begin jogging again a couple months ago and have enjoyed getting out and seeing the trails around Spokane. But, those days are few and far between with my current complications. I've been taking it easy though and other then not lifting over 10 lbs, I haven't been restricted on anything so jogging is still at least a weekly activity.



I'm always struggling with my weight and although I'm grateful for the opportunity to bring another child to our family, being pregnant sure put a damper on my weight loss goals. My body thinks its funny to store as much extra water as possible. I feel as if I have a water balloon in my stomach. Gross!



Anyway, I've rambled on enough. I'm grateful for my family and the support everyone shows us.
