Spring Break



This week was Spring Break and unfortunately the weather was not as good as we had hoped for to be outdoors more. It was cool, gloomy and rainy. I am hoping to take the boys to the Easter Egg hunt at Caleb's school this afternoon, but am also hoping it warms up before then. The temperature when we got us was only 23 degrees, but as least the sky looks sunny and clear.

Right before Spring Break, Caleb received another certificate from his teacher for a volcano drink for his reading progress. He also completed his reading chart with stickers at school and was given a pack of cars. Thus the boys and I made a trip to Daisy's and both boys got a grape volcano drink. It was quite funny to watch Elton's reaction to the sensations of drinking a carbonated beverage!

The middle of this week we had to make a trip to the dentist for Caleb to get a tooth "patched" due to some deep grooves in one of the molars. The dentist said that it was not from good brushing and that the rest of his teeth looked good. Caleb did really well. You could tell he was nervous, but he got to wear some cool sunglasses and thought the laser gun that shone blue light into his mouth was pretty neat.

Since our ultrasound, I have completed 10 new swaddling blankets for our new baby so that he can be the "Happiest The Baby On The Block"! The boys have been quite excited to see me working on them and are very anxious for summer to come to meet their new baby.

And The Ultrasound Says.....



We are having a boy!! In fact I even saw they boy parts before the ultrasound tech said it. Our boys have never been shy and when you see the picture there is no debating it. We are excited and I am pulling out my baby clothes to take stock of what I have. The ultrasound looked great and he looked very healthy. The office has a new 3D ultrasound machine that they didn't have with Caleb and Elton so the detail was amazing. As we have done in the past we will keep the name a secret until delivery to add some excitement.
