You Okay?

Last week Noah collapsed on the couch cushions that he was using to build his fort. Hope is always gravely concerned when he gets hurt, so she rushed right over to him. Of course, he was just playing around, and I got a cute video too.

Reminiscing

May

May was a crazy month. I know that some of you are wondering about my pregnancy blog. I deleted it because I am no longer pregnant. At my first doctor's appointment we found that the baby had stopped growing at 6 weeks and 1 day so I had a D&C the day after the appointment. It was pretty rough for both Ben and I, but we are feeling much better. We feel that that little spirit will join us again when there is a body that is sufficient for her.

On a lighter note, a lot of great things happened too! Here are a few highlights.

Ben has been building a playhouse in the backyard that the kids are very excited about. The pic below was taken at the beginning of May, and Ben has changed the design since. I will post a newer pic soon.

 Noah had an art show at school and graduated from 1st grade!!! Where did my baby go?

 Ben and I celebrated our 3rd Anniversary. Every year we get a cake from Granite Bakery the same place that did our wedding cake. YUMMY!

 Hope had her first sucker. I know that 21 months is a long time to wait for a sucker, but I have a choking phobia, so I don't care.

I refinished some picture frames for Hope's room. I still haven't put them up, but they turned out a lot better than I thought they would.
I was actually trying to get a picture of Elmo, and the kids got in the way. :)

Noah will be spending most of the summer here (YAY!!), so I am sure that I will be posting lots and lots of pictures soon.
