Anxiety and Anticipation

Hard to believe three months has already gone by... but then again, that pretty much sums up this year so far!

Our family is taking on some major changes, insert anxiety. March 9th we got word that we are heading to Omaha, Nebraska come August! We feel extremely blessed as this is where we were hoping to go and it is going to be a great job for Ben.

So along with this news, a couple of weeks ago we put our beautiful home on the market and we have had LOTS of people through looking. We are confident that God will bring the right people through our doors, whether we sell or rent it, we are praying that it will be just as much of a blessing to whoever lives here next, as it was to us.

As for Avery, well, on March 21st she turned 5! For her birthday we had a garden party and she invited all her besties and loved every minute of it. Avery is thrilled with the idea of moving to Omaha, mostly because it snows there! She can hardly wait to start Kindergarten. Oh, and she's elated that Omaha has a great big zoo! So she'll pretty much be in heaven. Of course, she'll be miss all her friends but is looking forward to the relationships God is already preparing for her there.


Avery got her ears pierced!





Graysen, well, he's pretty much the same, happy and easy going. He's content playing golf and shooting Nerf guns. Typical boy, right?!

At his first dentist appointment, he did so awesome!!


And as I am approaching the 32 week mark, our littlest boy is healthy and growing. We have finally agreed, *ahem* I totally convinced Ben, his name is Kelton Isaac and we are all so excited to see his sweet face. (Kidding about the name thing, it is actually a very special name and meaning to us that we'll get to at a later time and date.)

At my 28 week appointment, we did find out, however, that he is breech so right now I am doing all sorts of crazy stretches and will be seeing my chiropractor on Friday to try to get Kelton to flip around. I don't think a C-section would not be the most ideal situation a few weeks from packing up our world and moving three kids and a dog 27 hours away. Not to mention, a head in my right rib has proven to be quite an uncomfortable position!

...And here are just some pictures of what we have been up to
(Yes, most of these are cell pictures, I have promised myself to *have Ben* get the good camera out more often in the coming months!)
