Changes with the meals

Marshall and Beth you guys now have Saturday morning breakfast and we'll take Friday lunch. I hope that works out better.

Some more news...

Well our frog died so we don't need a name. I had Jeffrey save it in a bag to see if we could get a refund or something. He didn't stick around long enough. But Nemo is still alive and kicking. For those of you who don't know - we are expecting in November. We waited until we heard the heart beat before we came out with the news. It was quite the surprise because we thought for sure we were done. I even went so far as to give all my baby stuff away - oops! Goes to show some things in life just are not planned. So we are going to be parents again. I don't know if it has quite sunk in. We had it in our minds that we were only going to have two kids, so doing the baby thing again was the last thing we had on our minds. But now that I'm nauseous it seems like the only thing I can think of. I went to the doctor on Friday and he said the heart beat sounded good and strong, so we were happy about that. Anyways just that is our latest and greatest.

Our busy day yesterday

Yesterday we got two new members of our family - a goldfish and a frog. Jamison named the goldfish Nemo and the frog has yet to be named so if any of you want to suggest a name we will take a poll. So that was exciting for the kids. Last night we decided to go test drive minivans - yeah. I was not wanting to drive a minivan, but I finally gave in considering how much room they have. We test drove the Honda Odyssey and the Toyota Sienna. They both were pretty good vans, but the Honda seemed to have more space. We are looking for something to take on family vacations and for a second car. I have my mind made up, but I don't know if Jeffrey is so sure. Then when we got back, I wasn't feeling very good. So I asked Jeffrey if he would make me some popcorn. I usually do it over the stove, so I explained to him how to do it. So he put some oil in the pan - put a lid on it and turn it on. Then he left to go put the kids to bed. When he got back there was this big cloud of smoke under the lid and so he took it off and flames came flying up. I looked up and was like wow flame broiled popcorn - so after we got the fire alarms to turn off and had both doors open. He attempted to make some more - well it got burnt. He decided he was not making popcorn for me again. I ate it because he had gone through so much trouble and I felt bad. He just did not have the luck last night.

Coloring Easter eggs got a little messy

We tried to explain to Ella to set the eggs in softly, so they wouldn't splash the color and make a mess. I don't think we were very effective. But it was fun - Jamison ended up have blue speckles on his face for a couple of days.
