| Easter 2012 |

One would think that now I’m a stay-at-home mom, blogging
would be something I have time to do at least once a month, but now I’ve been
home since March 15th, and I’m FINALLY taking time to blog. I guess there’s just always something else to
do, so today I sat down and decided y’all needed an update. SO, first of all, we’re here, we’re alive,
and life is going pretty well!

| Happy St. Patrick's Day! |
March was a blast with Asher’s Spring Break, which was also
my first week home. His first day off of
school we went to the $1 store and I bought a bunch of little doo-dads, to have
an “activity” per day. Here’s a few
pics of some of the things we did:

For Easter we decorated eggs, attended our church’s yearly
egg hunt, and went to the house of our friends (the Hunt’s ) for Easter dinner. The kids were adorable egg hunting and we had
a wonderful time.

Asher will be finishing kindergarten a month from
today! I can’t believe it! He’s really growing up! He pulled another tooth the other day (two
pulled now). Asher was so excited on
Easter when he had the opportunity to talk in a microphone (for the first time)
in “big church” to tell about some posters his class made about Jesus’s
love. We were so proud!! Asher’s first school field trip is May 1st,
and he has his first school music program May 7th.

| Eva and her paparazzi |
Eva is potty training. Her biggest challenges in this are her constant companion, the sippy cup
of water, along with her extreme
stubbornness to sit all the time or to not sit at all on the potty. She’s definitely 2 years
old. Today the kind soul in line in
front of me bought my coffee…I think when I opened my window to order they
could hear Eva screaming like a banshee being abused by it’s parents (I wasn’t
abusing her. She doesn’t agree with the law
that says she has to sit in a car seat and wear a safety belt). Her name means “life” and she definitely is
full of life!!

Elise is adorable, as always. She talks up a storm—her favorite things to
say being “uh-oh” and “all done”. She
still isn’t crawling, but she definitely moves—sorta pulling herself along with
her legs while sitting. She eats
anything we feed her—she’s an AMAZING eater.
She smiles all the time, and LOVES her pacifier.

| me and Elise |
I started a part-time job at the
Waukee YMCA, where I get to
play with kids while their parents work out.
I also can bring our kids with when I’m working, so it’s just been an
amazing opportunity to get involved in our community, make new friends, and to
spend time with my own kiddos.
Tim just judged his first BBQ contest of the season at
VEISHEA (check out the website-he also went to the parade) and looks forward to
this BBQ season (so do I—leftovers from these contests are great!). He’s
taking classes and working in addition to being an amazing husband and father. I love my man!!
That sorta sums up what we’ve been up to. We miss you all! Love and hugs! ~Sarah
