My Pole Vaulter

Ryan accidentally erased this post so I will try it again! Love ya honey!!
When we bought our house it came with a dog run built in the back yard. Since it takes up so much space and we do not have a dog, Ryan is taking it down. He got a good portion of the work done this last Saturday, it's taking a while because the post's are cemented into the ground and one is cemented to the house. So while he was out working Kiera and I were sitting at the kitchen table and out of the corner of my eye, I see my husband flying through the air! I ran out to the back yard only to find him "pole vaulting" with one of the poles from the fence!!

Little Artisit







I think Kiera is taking after her dad. She loves to draw and has recently figured out how to draw people. Now they may not look like people to you, but as her proud mama, let me reassure you that they are "peoples"! That is what Kiera told me. She is also learning to color in the lines, which surprises me. But I don't have any pictures of that right now. These are from this morning when she was very busy drawing and writing in her little notebook.

Easter

Easter was so much more fun this year with Kiera being older. She LOVED the Easter egg hunts we went to and it caught on very quickly for us to do them over and over at our house. The best part is that my mom was able to come visit for the weekend and we had the most wonderful time. Thank you so much mom for coming!
Kiera absolutely loved coloring Easter Eggs!

As for me and our new little baby sister, I am at 28 weeks and just had a doctors appointment yesterday. Everything looks great and the baby seems to be growing right on schedule. I don't want to jinx's myself, but this pregnancy has been so much easier than Kiera's. By this time with Kiera I was wearing ted-hose to try and keep the swelling down in my feet and legs and I felt huge. So far, no swelling and I am feeling pretty good. We are just so excited as a family to have a new baby. Kiera continues to remind us that, "baby sister will come out after my Birthday, June of tenth"! I love how she says it, she is just too cute these days.

Kiera's first "Tea Party"

On Wednesday Kiera got to dress up and go to her first tea party. It was so cute, all the little girls dressed up and drinking their tea "Lemonade".
