Long Time

Well it's been a long time since last I blogged. I've just not taken the time to do it. I am now almost 7 months pregnant with another girl. Her name will be Sophia Ellen or Sophie. Lately I've been asking myself if I am crazy having another baby. I know it will be hard but I am truly excited. Abbie is just fascinated by the whole process. She loves to feel the baby move and she loves to talk to her. She tells her she loves her all the time. I've been trying to go through Abbie's things and get rid of some stuff but she wants to save it all for her baby sister.

Kaleb is my big boy who even being 18 months younger than his sister is almost as tall and a 100 times as strong. They where the same size clothes and the same size shoes. I can't seem to keep up with Kaleb. There will be a time soon when I won't be able to pick him up. He's been trying to exert his independence lately. It's funny when he tries to yell at me because his voice goes up a couple of octaves. The other day at Target he looked at the lady at the check out and said, "I'm Kaleb that's me." That was the first time I had ever heard him say his own name. I'm surprised by how much he talks since his sister never stops talking. Abbie will talk your ear off about anything. She's been fascinated by bugs lately. I can't believe she will be 4 in 12 days.

Justin is working for Donatos' still. He's at a different store working as an assistant general manager and he loves that. He is much happier doing what he's doing. The store he's at now is almost an hour drive with traffic, but he still likes it. He's hoping to get moved closer to our home sometime in the near future.

The weather has been great for early April in Ohio. It's in the mid 70's and we haven't had a ton of rain yet. Although as I say that we do have a big chance of rain for the next several days.

Well life certainly does go on and change without you realizing it all the time. We miss all our friends in Vegas but we have been able to build several strong friendships here. We aren't doing a small group or anything right now, but there is another couple that I think we may work with in getting something going again. Brian was going to be a Baptist pastor, but had a lot of problems with how things were done in the church. He preaches here on occasion and he's really good. He reminds me of Joe with some of his feelings he has toward church. He told me when he was in college he got sent to the deans office for suggesting that instead of meeting at the church 3 or more days a week that they should start small home church's.

Well I guess that I have caught everyone up. I am going to try to blog more. I always feel guilty for taking the time at work, but it's not like I have a ton to do. I just sit here and wait for the phone to ring.
