Finally!

I have not been able to log onto blogger from my home computer since December. I have no idea what happened. I am at my dad's for a visit over Easter and thought I would update a little bit.

We have had a great winter - glad it's finally over!! Not that the snow wasn't fun, but it was just too much! I am getting closer to the end of this pregnancy - only 6 1/2 more weeks to go. I can't wait - to not be pregnant and to meet our baby girl!

Let's see what has been going on since I last posted......

Patrick has been really working hard trying to complete the apartments he has to have done by the middle of May at the latest. He is doing a great job considering the project started two months later than scheduled. He has been really stressed and I hope once this one is over he can take a couple of days and just relax! He is looking forward to Spring Turkey season starting this Saturday. That might be just the relaxation he needs!

I have just been hanging out with the kids and counting down the days until I have this baby. We have some names picked out, but still waiting until she arrives to pick one - for sure. It's mostly the middle name we are unsure of. So still looking as far as that goes.

Grace is getting bigger and learning tons of new things in school. She really loves to read and draw and play on the computer. She is on spring break this week. I love breaks from school - we get to sleep in - well as much as Clara will let me. At least we don't have rush around in the morning and get her to school. Summer will be really nice!

Martha has been growing and had her first official haircut a couple of months ago. This was a big deal - for me. I love her curls and was so afraid that they would go away when we cut her hair, luckily they are still there. She just looks so cute with her wavy hair! Last Sunday Martha decided to try her hand at cutting hair thought and went up behind Grace and just snipped away at the back of her hair. I was so mad! I know it's only hair and it will grow back, but Grace's hair is so long and all I saw was this clump of hair in her hand and the strands throughout the house that kept falling as she walked. It is fine though and you can hardly tell.

Clara is getting big and will be two this coming Saturday. She loves Dora the Explorer so we are having Dora cupcakes and decorations. Nothing fancy, just for the family. She is going through her terrible two's though. I am not sure how to handle it because Grace nor Martha went through this. Clara likes to smack and yell and she is just full of energy!

So that is a quick update on the family. Hopefully I will be able to get on from home and be able to post more often! I have missed it.
