April Showers...

we are hoping & praying will bring May flowers!!!


Sorry we've been MIA with the blog, lately. Each of us has been sick, and that makes for no fun in this house! Maggie is (we are hoping!!!) at the end of a little cold, that Brian, she and I all had... Thankfully, Jackson managed to sneak by that one!
Also, at the end of March, I got really sick, with what the Doctors believed at first was a virus, and I ended up in the hospital for 4 days. :(
After being able to keep 2 meals down - they set me free! I can most definitely say, that being in the hospital, and away from Brian, Jack and Maggie was worse than actually being sick! So glad that is over (the hospital stay, at least)... and hoping that with all of the testing, etc. they have done, they can find a cause for why I was so sick, and continue to just not feel 100%. I am hopeful that answers will come ... and it will be a fairly easy fix!


With that said, we are all on the mend... and ready for some much needed sunshine! So, I guess the saying "April Showers Brings May Flowers" is one we are all really counting on this year! The kids and I are so ready to get outside during the day... to say we have serious cases of cabin fever, is an understatement!
Bring on Mr. Sunshine (as Jack would say), we are ready for you!


We do have a few fun things to share... as most of you know, Brian's Aunt and Uncle are moving from Southern California to Camas, WA. They have purchased a home there, and we couldn't be more excited! A few weekends ago, we were able to head out to Camas and check out their new home. Sorry... I didn't get any pictures of the house really... as it was pouring.down.rain.!!!
But, did get some of our muchkins... having a great time, as usual!


They even had fun in the car on the way out there! :)


 Jack being extra silly in the car on our way to Camas...

and as always, entertaining "Little Miss"


 She was so tired...
but, managed to stay awake for the whole ride out there... and played when we got to their house... but, on the way home... she was OUT in no time! :)

 The Guys!
Papa (Brian's Dad), Brian, Jackson, and Uncle Bruce at Uncle Bruce and Aunt Karin's new house!
(this picture is taken in the "family room" that is directly off of the kitchen/dining room)

 Maggie loved walking around and around in all of the open space!

 Proud new Washingtonians!
Uncle Bruce and Aunt Karin in their new home!!!

 Jack and Brian playing around...
 hmmm... looks like a family affair!

I apologize for cutting this post short, as we do have lots of photos to share... but, this Mama needs to get some sleep... as the past few nights have been a bit rough with everyone under the weather....

These last two pictures are of our Sweet Girl... she LOVES sitting at the "big" table and eating with Jack, rather than in her highchair... apparently, highchairs are for babies, and she is not a baby! :p


We hope you are all doing great, and I promise to post again VERY soon, and with lots more pictures!
xo,
Brian, Brooke, Jack and Maggie.
