Happy Easter!

Well, I totally thought we'd be having an Easter baby! But no...and still not yet, so I thought I should get some posting done before he or she arrives! We had so much fun with Aubrey this Easter! She loved all the painting of eggs and still gets excited when we have to buy eggs, thinking she will get to paint them. We did a fun community egg hunt, saved the plastic eggs for our own hunt at home on Easter...and she had so much fun finding those (we filled them with healthy snacks....which she totally thought was the coolest! I love this age :) that we had to do 4 more egg hunts . Finally at the end of the week I was sick of opening and closing those plastic eggs and put them away for next year....

Due Date!

I know. We are terrible at keeping current with this blog....and if I wasn't so lazy right now (but hey, I am 9 months pregnant today!) I would upload a few photos of Aubrey's first time painting Easter eggs! (of the 7 we started with only 1 sole survivor remains...they were just much too pretty for her not to play with!). Instead, a couple DIY photos from when we first arrived in our new home. Probably taken 2 months ago now..

Oh, not only is today my "due date" it is also little Missy's 2 1/2 birthday! Yay!

The Chair : (my grandmother's set i was lucky to inherit!)

My helper (she is pretty handy with the power screw driver...always one to be part of the action):

The New Look :

The Table : (I swear my mom must of gotten this before I was born.)

No photo of the finished look, I still want to put some finishing touches on it :) But it went through a couple different "looks" until i found the right one.

The Thermomix.

Everything was made in it in the photo above. I LOVE my Thermomix!!

Our update : Ben is working lots but enjoys it...I'd say that's better than a predictable 8-5 that you hate and even though he's not always home by 6, or sometimes even 7....I know he is happy and working towards something! Aubrey and I have met a lot of new friends. We especially enjoy the weekly drop in gymnastics, and story/craft/dance time with Miss Andrea at the library!
Our baby is due this weekend...but we'll see when he or she decides to be ready. It is a full moon tonight....kinda hoping gravity does it's thing!
