Counting our Blessings!

The baby and I are fine but I was in a very scary car accident Friday evening. I dropped off my girlfriend at her house and on a pretty major road was hit by a presumably drunk driver w/ a suspended license who then sped off. He crossed the middle line and hit my car. It turns out he crashed into a ditch down the road and was arrested. My airbag went off and the subaru was totaled. My car was in a lane sideways on a busy street and smoking so I hopped out and over the guardrail. Three very amazing people stopped to help me and the police and ambulance got there quickly. I walked out with just a scratch on my knee and a few burns from the airbag. They monitored the baby at the hospital and he was kicking away and the heartbeat was good! Amen! I am unbelievably blessed and so thankful that I was able to come home to Mesh, Nate & Riley with just a little soreness and that Ben was safe. Benny Ben (Nate and Riley's nickname for their little bro) is due in 9 days - can't wait to meet our sweet baby boy and hold him extra close.

Farm Field Trip!

Today Nate, Riley and I went on a field trip to Fox Hollow Farm with Nate's preschool class. The animals were fun but the giant ball was the kids' favorite.

Baby Shower Brunch!

My dear friends from my moms' group (we have been meeting since Nate was 4 months old, and all of the firstborns are within 3 months of each other) threw a baby shower brunch in honor of the two babies in our group due on May 4th. My friend Courtney, who has a boy Nate's age and a girl Riley's age, and I are due on the same day! Thanks Ladies!

Happy Easter!

Final Four Weekend

These pictures are from Nate's first basketball game that he played at his sports sampler class in March but I thought I'd post them now since it's the weekend of the Final Four. Gramps, Uncle Andy and Uncle Joey took their annual trip to see the games - have fun guys!
