Update

I have not been that great about blogging lately, but hope to get better. Part of my excuse is I really had not been feeling well for a while and have been pretty tired, but that is slowly passing and I seem to feel better (and less tired) as the days go on. I went through my camera and decided to blog about some past events, so here goes.

Ella and Sadie worked on a gingerbread house before Christmas, and had a great time. Katie helped them do it and I think it turned out great. They had just as much fun eating the candy as they did decorating the house.


Drew (my brother) hung out a few times here over his break. We enjoy having him over. One night I jokingly said I'll give you a dollar if you go outside and make a snow angel. I was originally going to say five but thought he will never do this so said one. I got off cheap on this one as he did do it without a second thought.

Most of the cousins singing Away in the Manger on Christmas day.



Roc really only likes to eat what he can feed him self -and he is pretty good about it. But one thing he has started to do lately is dump the food on his head or down his shirt! Much to my delight :)









I took the kiddos to our new Sonic the other day for the 1/2 price drinks. My favorite thing there. We all enjoyed a drink and I let them get out of their car seats and we hung out in the car and drank our drinks for a while. All went well till Roc poked his straw through the side of the cup :) I got my self a Strawberry Limeade (which I get regular strawberry syrup but diet pop) I can't do a totally lite drink so this is my way of cutting down some of the calories. Roc and Ella each got a real fruit smoothie-sounds healthy-right??

Also baby is due July 25 or 26th. We are excited and I am holding my foot down-WE WILL BE SURPRISED-on the sex of this one.
Now just have to come up with a name :) Ella's suggestions so far are baby Jesus, just "Plain Baby" or another Roc. Not sure we will go for these but we are thankful for her suggestions.

Thank you to all who read this whole post.
