Bar-b-que!

Well, I'm sure some of you have thought we've fallen off the face of the earth, but indeed we are still here :) Over the past few weeks we have encountered ear infections, stomach flus, and tonsilitis. I officially have no paid time off left and Roger seems to be close, but not really! He took a few days off for remodeling the bathroom (which is getting closer!) and then more days due to stomach flu for him and the boys. I had it, too! He ended up taking a week off for no fun at all! Roger's parents have really chipped in. Jim helped/facilitated the construction of the bathroom and after he finally got to go home, had to come back the next day, with Barb, to watch Roger and the boys while I went to work... We really appreciated the help :)

Here are some pics of the beginning of the month when it was so nice out we actually got to have our first kabobs of the season! We had our friends Dan and Amy over and their kiddos Brett and Claire. Amy and I met while in baby preparation classes when we were pregnant with S.Jessen and Brett! We didn't speak then, but have since had about 4 other cuincidences for knowing each other so we decided we had to hang out! The last being that Roger and I bought her husband, Dan's grandparent's house. Too small of a world, really!

Anyway, S.Jessen and Brett are identical busy souls and a month a part in age. We did lots of play dates over the summer and continued it through the fall. We've ventured out a few times this spring and are now ready to be outside again.

Tate likes baby "Square". I think the boys are ready for a little sister, but it will most likely be a brother, whenever that time comes around. No, I'm not pregnant, Give us a few months :)
