Two Milestones...

Just to update you all on a few miles stones that our family has reached....Jared just recently celebrated (Not really other than mentioning it!) that he has officially had a "real" job for one year! We were both shocked when he realized it. Where has the last year gone? We thought for sure we would have been moved out and into a place of our own by now...Not quite the case. Instead, another baby is coming and I'm on bed rest...which means no more house shopping for a few more weeks/months! Good thing Shan and Todd have the best backyard any kid could dream of so our kids are VERY much entertained! Way to go honey!!
Oh, and here is the "prego" picture. I actually put real clothes on for the first time in three weeks. So I had Alayna hurry and snap a photo of me before I forgot to take one prego picture. So I hope this pleases everyone...YES I am prego! I don't know that the 4 year old level is the most flattering but who's worried about that? Not me! I'm just glad I have one picture now!! The next exciting news is that I have made it passed 35 weeks. So I guess this bed rest thing is actually working. My doctor told me that he will only make me stay on bed rest till 36 weeks which is (Wednesday, May 6th). So I am on the down hill and counting...but each day that comes closer to no more bed rest means that we are one day closer to meeting this new little baby! YEAH!! (We did elect to not spoil our 9 month surprise...sorry to those that encouraged us to find out, we will just hold out a few weeks longer!!) Thanks again to EVERYONE that has helped us out so much. I can't tell you how wonderful you have made this experience. THANK YOU!!!

So glad to hear you are doing well and that you have made it yet, another week. Way to go! And I am still amazed at how great you look being 35 weeks pregnant. Amazing!

You look great little lady. I bet your ready to be off bed rest and to meet that little one. Hope the rest of your wait goes well and fast.
And to answer your question...yes I've been doing monthly letters to Sawyer and now Beckett since their birth except for last month when we got too busy so I put the last two months together. It's the best way for me to look back and remember what actually happened month by month.

Way to go Alayna--she's got natural talent! You do look very cute, Diana! A BIG "Thanks" goes to Shan for her extra care and help these last few weeks. . . Congrats and thanks to Jared, too. Love, Mom
