We are seeing PINK!

We have been slow to post anything about our new little baby that will be here the first week of September, but last week we went and had an ultrasound and found out we are having a little girl! Joseph and I are very excited and Owen... is still getting used to the idea of having a baby sister. I have to admit that it is so fun going into a store and seeing all the pink clothes and being able to buy one (or two) things- I keep telling myself that we are moving in 3 weeks and should not be buying clothes, but sometimes I just can't help myself!
I have been feeling good, and besides a day here or there, not much sickness. We couldn't be more excited about having a new little baby in our family and anxious to meet her and hold her little hands and kiss her little toes!

Easter Eggs

We decorated Easter eggs the other night. I bought the cheap egg dye at the grocery store, but Owen couldn't have been happier. It is so fun to do these traditions with Owen, he is getting to the age that he remembers everything we do- I have to be careful because he is gets confused at what's a tradition and what is a one time special occasion. For example, dying Easter eggs: tradition, buying a doughnut at the grocery store: one (or two) time special occasion!








Throughout the week the eggs have diminished; we had to crack one almost immediately to see what it looked like inside, and then Owen let one gently roll off the counter and crash on the kitchen floor- we have just two left, but it has been fun to have the brightly colored eggs in our kitchen this week.

Quick trip home

Last week Owen and I flew home for a trip to see everyone while my parents were in town. It was a quick trip but we were able to see family, our good friends, and some of our favorite restaurants. I was lame and didn't take any pictures, but I daydreamed about how it just two months we will be moving back home and will love being around mountains and family again; we have loved Lawrence and we will really miss all of our friends- but we are ready to be done with school and on to the next phase of life!
