20 weeks!

I'm officially 20 weeks today!  Woohoo!  Only 19 weeks to go (they start me one week early).  The last part of the pregnancy will hopefully go faster than the first half!

Funny Kids!

The kids have said the funniest things today!

Lily
Mom:  I better go do visiting teaching today before I chicken out.
Lily:  What's that Mom?  Is it a restaurant?  Can I go to Chicken Out with you?

Kara
Earlier this week Kara was laughing and accidentally snorted.  She had never done that before and has spent the whole week perfecting her new talent.  Today I dropped Kara off at Sunbeams and talked to her teacher.  Kara kept snorting and giggling.  I explained to the teacher that she had just learned to snort.  He said "apparently."  I feel bad for the Sunbeam teachers...there are at least 10 Sunbeams....one who is a habitual snorter.

Minivan owners

We got a new van!  2011 Dodge Caravan.  It's beautiful inside and out!  It's in perfect condition.  We are very excited to have room for a new baby!

Ducks

Kara has a really hard time on the days Lily goes to school.  On Friday we bundled up and headed to the "Duck Park."  It has lots of fun trails and, of course, ducks.  We stayed until I couldn't feel my face anymore.  It was a fun adventure.

Rocks

So we have all reached winter burnout.  Our creativity has run out and we are just excited for the sun to come out....permanently.  On Thursday I pushed the girls out the door to play for 20 minutes.  They had fun finding the "perfect" rock to paint.  It turned out to be a fun adventure.

And we're back!

So it's been 2 years since I blogged.  Woops.  So the last 2 years have been busy....we moved from st. George to pocatello, id where Dan is a nurse.  We bought a house in November of 2013.  Lily is 6 and in kindergarten and Kara is 3.  Here is a typical evening as of late:

        Lily and Mom work on homework.
           Kara and Dad work on dinner.
