It's been a while...and a lot has happened!

Well, I feel like my life is just now settling back down. (Whatever that means.) I will back up to where I last left off on our trip to Rebel Hill Ranch.

Spring Soccer
Well, Regan is playing soccer again. They did not have a coach, so a girlfriend of mine and myself volunteered. Neither one of us had ever played soccer, nor do we know anything about it. :) We are crazy! :) After sending out a desperate plea message to our team, one of our dads is actually the head coach and does the practices and games. Tara and I just assist with the administrative work. It is going well so far. The season is not over yet. :) We have actually only played one game due to all this crazy weather.

Pizza Night and Art Show
Kennedy's school had a family fun event one Friday night. They did a silent auction to raise money for a charity in our town that helps out moms and children who come from abused families. We had pizza and watched a slide show of the kids through the year. We also got to see the great artwork displayed that the kids had made. It was so fun! Kennedy loved showing off her art work.

We have moved!
Yes, again! People think we're crazy, and we are. We now own a home in our hometown. We are so excited to be in and be settled. It was a foreclosure so there are still some things to be done. But we're in! :)

Easter Parties and Easter

On Hold
The first weekend in April I quite working at the hospital. With Nathan working about 80 hours a week, me working full time, going to school, etc. it is just too much for us. So, I am back to being a stay at home mom, which I love! :) On that note, I will be postponing nursing school for a bit. I am finishing my Anatomy and Physiology class in a couple of weeks. It has been a very exciting class. I do know I still want to go into nursing. I do know that I don't want to work nights. :) I have even thought about being a school nurse so I can be with my kiddos. We'll see. I thought I had it all figured out...I guess God has different plans sometimes.

10.09.09
Besides this being Nathan's birthday, what significance is this date? Well, it is the day that I will be induced to deliver our 4th baby. :) We are 13 weeks today. Everything looks good. We have had several sonograms. We had our most recent one on Tuesday. The baby has all the arms, legs, fingers, and toes. The baby has all four chambers of the heart. The heartbeat is good. Just continue to pray for a healthy baby and a happy healthy outcome. :) The only bad thing is I get to give myself two shots a day for a blood clotting disorder I found out I had. Fun, fun, fun! I will gladly do it to have a new bundle of joy! Nathan has claimed that we aren't telling the sex of the baby. We'll see how well that works out....
That is all I have for now. It doesn't look like we've been so busy on paper--but we have! :) Until next time!

Mom always said October babies were the best! Congrats!

Looks like we're neighbors by the looks of the house you just bought. I don't know how private you like to keep things on here. So, I'll say, are you in a local golf community? If so, we are right off the main road.
