Baby 4 is coming...

Just a quick update...I've been back and forth for dr visits in the cities...It's official the induction is scheduled for Monday, July 20th...our Fourth and Final should be here...Lord willing...We choose the name Grant Arthur...will keep you posted on all the stats as we can!

Updates

Well, I haven't blogged for quite a while because I spend most of my internet on facebook...

Mark went on a fishing trip with some guys from Ely, they fished Basswood (in BWCA) and slept overnight 2 nights. They caught about 200 fish, Mark says he got 27 walleye and 3 northerns. Fishing was great. This past week we fryed up some walleye, and it was SO GOOD! I told him he might have to go out and catch us fish for supper at least once a week!

Mark started demo'ing the bathroom and dust is flying and plaster! It's exciting to see that I won't have a 1800 bathroom forever!

We had a garage sale at our house last Saturday, it was snowing and horribly windy. Lovely, but thankfully we sold a big item and a bunch of small items...we made out pretty good.

We had parent conferences at Sydney's preschool...she is exceling in reading, math and her social skills. It was fun to hear! We talked about how sensitive she is and if she will grow out of it...Ruth Lah says that her daughter fainted while hearing the story "Old Yeller" in school, so at least we know to avoid sad books/movies! :)

Carter had his 3 year old check up today, he is a good communicator and analyzes things before he does anything.

Alli is a little stinker, she is not wanting to eat with the family lately. She wants to just graze and doesn't really seem to eat much.

Pepper hasn't ran away in a while, which is nice, since we are down to 1 car.

My ladies bible study is winding down, and we have 2 chapters left. It has been great. My allergies is kicking in really bad! I think something must be bloomin or the dust that is getting kicked up from the demo might been the culprit.

We are headed to the cities this weekend to see Brenda and Kirk for Memorial weekend. I am almost 31 weeks, and think I will be enduced the 20th of July, so only 8 weeks left! CRAZY

Beautiful Weather!

It's been so beautiful! Thank you Lord for this weather! Last week the kids and I went to the cities for a dr appointment and Easter...it was so relaxing!!! I was able to lounge on the deck and watch the kids wear themselves out! We had Easter dinner at Jack and Nancy's...with Aunt Janet and Grandma Olson...
When we got back to ely we were pleasantly surprised to see alot of the snow melting! YEAH! We walked to the dr office for Carter's finger (check up) Monday and Tuesday (about 25 blocks) and today we met friends on the trazona and walked about 2 miles! CRAZY! It is about 60 and now sunny...and tomorrow is going to be beautiful too...we are meeting friends again to walk.
Hope all is well...

Dr visits

Well, it's been a while since my last post! Jack and Nancy visited here for Mark's birthday, we had a good time, however the weather was quite cold! But, what do we expect in ely? I had a run with the flu, for a week, yuck!!
Last week Alli smashed her fingers in the garbage container, it weighed about 50 pounds and I thought her fingers were broken thankfully, the xray showed different. Saturday, Alli was choking and threw up a quarter! Oh my word!! Thank you Lord!!
Today, Carter was chasing Sydney in the basement and tripped on his boots (which were on the wrong feet) and ended up breaking his pinky finger! Poor guy! He is so accident prone! The dr's and nurses know us all better than there own family, I think!
We are still sorting out boys names.
We decided to homeschool Sydney, so pray that we do a good job in training her in the way we should...Hope you are all doing good...my next trip to the cities is next Tuesday-Sunday! YEAH!
