We Made It To April!


We are officially in our "birth month"! Whew! Between Bella's birthday and Evie's due date, it's an exciting month here! I'm still hoping that Evie holds out until May, but it's just so fun to see her due date on the calendar.

This past weekend, Steve and I had a chance to enjoy a full 24 hours without Bella. It was quick, but it was a nice break! We dropped Bella off with our friends, Ashleigh and Ryan, and their two-year old, Molly. This was Bella's first sleepover without us, and I was a little nervous about how she would react, especially around bedtime. We were so happy when Ashleigh gave us a good report! Bella didn't have any tears the entire weekend and she handled bedtime perfectly.

Steve and I were so thankful for this chance to spend some time together - we went out for a steak dinner, slept in until 8:30 (so amazing!), enjoyed a late brunch, and got to see a movie. It was an incredibly refreshing weekend, and now we get to focus on everything going on this month...We have our meeting this weekend with our midwife and our friends who will be at the birth, Bella is going to hopefully make some advancements in potty training, we have Bella's birthday party coming up, and Evie will be here! We're so excited to start this next chapter in our family!
