It's A BOY!!

So much has happened since I last blogged! The most exciting is that we found out we are having a baby boy! I am thrilled for my son to have a brother. He has been so adorable with this pregnancy, lifting my shirt, patting my belly saying, "baby!" Oh boy, he doesn't know what he's in for!! Paul and I couldn't be happier and just hope this baby stays in my belly full term.

Another exciting piece of news is that I opened my own business! Yes, I love my job doing casework for people with disabilities and I figured this was a great opportunity to go out on my own. I quit my job, (taking my clients with me, of course) leased an office, and am providing supports and services to kids and adults with mental disabilities. It is an absolute blessing to be able to work for myself and make a difference in others' lives.

More updates and pictures to come...

Congrats, Zach! Tonight Zach graduated from Landmark High School. Wow! It was an inspiring ceremony. Zach, are so proud of you!

Following the Leader. . .

Today Stockton got to play with his cousin, Sydney, at my mother's house. He copied her every move!! He copied what she did with toys, how she put her hands, and even the things she said. This picture is so cute because you can see how he watches her to see what she's going to do next. I love to see him have a good relationship with his cousins!!

BIG NEWS!!

I'm pregnant!! Paul and I will be having our second baby in December. We are so excited! We have been trying for 9 months and had almost given up. We bought this shirt for Stockton to tell the grandparents. Hooray! I'm so happy!

Easter Sunday

Easter Sunday was so much fun! We had a huge meal with all the family and the kids got to go on an Easter Egg Hunt! All the eggs are filled with money, candy, or a paper that says 'pick a prize' Each kid leaves with 6 or 7 new toys. They love the hunt and this year Stockton understood the concept and was going after those eggs!!

My parents are the cutest!!

Warren and Auntie Theresa cutting turkey and ham...Yummy!

My Aunt Theresa and Uncle Wayne have a gorgeous backyard! It is perfect for any occasion! This occasion was the annual Easter Egg Hunt. It was another success!


Kyler was the MC of the Hunt. He started it with his horn and throughout the Hunt gave the kids hints on where to find the eggs.
My little man is so handsome! I loved watching him participate!

After the hunt, everyone gathers on the lawn to search through their eggs and pick their prizes!

Stockton thought it was so fun to pick the little toys, candy and money out of the eggs.Ally showing off all the eggs she found.

Talon and Jenny faced off... Jenny with silly string and Talon with a water gun - easily loaded in the river.

When Jenny attacked Talon, it became an all-out war. The kids ended up soaked! Fun, Fun!
I love my sister's stance to douse her nephew in silly string!!

LOVE Jenny's face and actions as she runs from Talon's water gun!! Hilarious!
