Our addition

This past Thanksgiving we added an addition to our house.... a mud room! I never did upload pictures so I just thought that I would.

Before we started

The walls are up

Yay!

The room is Tyveked and window and doors are in
and there is the hubby working hard:)

Somewhat done...

I will have to add the finished pictures later because I didn't realize that I didn't have them-oops!

Busy days

It has been crazy busy around here. I had my second delivery this weekend! It was very exciting!! I love birth! God is so amazing! I got the call on Saturday night at 12:22 am from the mother-to-be and by 1:48 pm her and her husband had a beautiful healthy baby boy:) Amazing!

We also were given almost new(5 year old windows) from a guy who decided not to remodel but build a new house. We had to go and take them out of the old farm house that they were in because it is being taken down this week. They are much newer than our 100 year old single pane windows. We are extremely grateful. Now I just can't wait to get them all put in:) He had exactly 13 windows and we need exactly 13 windows- God works in mysterious ways!

Only 5 more weeks of school!! Both I and the kids are excited. Summer is a long awaited break for us all :)

Happy belated Easter to all!

It has been a crazy month here. I haven't had much time to sit still. We had a wonderfully blessed Holy Week. I attended my first birth as a doula on Good Friday and it was amazing! The momma did a fabulous job and delivered a very healthy and beautiful baby!
Hope everyone had a fabulous Easter! We enjoyed the wonderful day with our families. The kids had multiple Easter egg hunts, too much candy, and lots of laughter.

We also were able to announce that we are expecting again!
We are so excite, as are the kids!
