It's Been TOOOOO Long!!!

Ok, Ok, I know you probably thought I had abandoned this blog. I really haven't, it's just that "life got really busy." as you all know it can! We have had a lot of things happen over the course of the past 6 months (I really can't believe it's been that long). I will try to post some of the happenings in an attempt at getting caught up. In case I don't, here are some of the things that have occurred:

• We are expecting a baby girl at the end of May! This is perhaps the biggest reason why I fell off the blogging wagon. Too many months of feeling tired and yucky!
• Of course we celebrated Thanksgiving and Christmas and had a great time with family
• Josh started preschool in January. We figured one semester was all he needed to be ready for Kindergarten in the fall (still can't believe that).
• Emily has been excelling in first grade. She is one of the best students in her class despite being the youngest.
• Josh had his tonsils and adenoid removed and tubes put in his ears. Now that was a fun one! I think between the two kids and this pregnancy, we have had enough doctor visits to last us an entire lifetime!!

It is nice to see spring coming on, although they say we're supposed to get some snow Monday night/Tuesday morning. Ughgh!! At least with spring storms here in Utah, the snow never lasts long. I only wish I could get out in the yard and get some work done. Unfortunately, no one will let me!!!! I guess 9 or 10 more weeks of waiting is manageable.

**Just as a sidenote, if there is anyone who knows the answer to this question, I would really appreciate help. Blogger will not let me directly insert pictures from the "create new post" area in the dashboard. I have to use picassa to put all my pictures in (sort of a huge pain). Does anyone know why? Is there any hope for me??
