Fun moments in April

Its been a long hard day.....

Okay, so its been a tough week. We lost this one but it is A-OK. We guess it isn't time for the next little roughian to come along. But when its time, it will be time. So until then we'll keep this thing updated. It is still a very busy time and Abran keeps us continually laughing. He actually picked up on the word 'down' this past week. I got after Mia because she was trying to lick his mouth and it makes me nuts when she does. So I had pointed my finger and said probably louder than I thought, "down". Right after that Abran said it just the same way except it came out with more of a "dowwwww". Then he started laughing. Now he'll just randomly say it. I'll be posting more pics soon.

A few words about.........

December must be a lucky month this year. We are so excited to say that we are expecting our 2nd child. I am 2 months along right now. I put up 12 pink and blue balloons with a sign that said 'Arriving Dec.12th' and left it, along with the two pregnancy tests in the dining room for Jonathan to find when he got home from work. This was a few weeks ago. We found out pretty early. He walked in the door, washed his hands, picked up Abran to play with him and hugged me before he even noticed the sign. He squinted his eyes to read it, THEN he noticed the balloons....pause....he then says "what?.....WHAT?" I told him to go look at the tests. He was very excited and happy and needless to say I was over the moon. However....how do you not notice 12 balloons in your dining room in plain view right away? So funny.
I am so excited that Ben and Carli are pregnant again too. She is due 8 days before me. Mom and Dad will have their hands full with a couple of toddlers and 7 month olds when they get home.

So Abran and I have been so sick this past two weeks. I am exhausted everyday and have to nap when he does. Our head colds were complicated with allergies. He got breathing treatments and doc prescribed me an allergy pill.
One cool thing I found out about today, is this meebo deal to my right. Now friends and family will know if I am on my blog at the same time they are looking at it and can drop me a note. How fun. So please use it. You can just start typing...no signing in or anything.
I have planted my tulips and am waiting for weather to warm up so I can plant a few more in my bed and then I will post a pic so you can see how it looks this year. I am not a gardner, so I am proud of us for getting these flowers in.
