Chicago-Bluffton

We've had a really busy spring thus far! We were in Florida the last week of March. We then had one week home. The next weekend we were in Chicago for an appraisal seminar. The next weekend (last weekend) we were in Bluffton for a Moser get together. Now this weekend we will be celebrating Easter with the Sprungers on Saturday in Bluffton and Sunday with the Gudemans in Francesville! Whew! The traveling is tough on the kids and the parents - though it's all been fun stuff that is hard to say no to. I'm trying to take it easy this week so to recouperate and rest up for the weekend to come. Although I will say I realize that our family does pretty well when we are on the move.

Yesterday I was home all day with the kids and after a few hours of just being home, we were all ready to be doing something! Melissa King came over in the afternoon to chat so that was a wonderful breath of fresh air for me.

Then, John had a meeting last evening, so I had Heide Sprunger come over to join us for dinner. Aahhh that was nice. I mean I love my kids but after awhile talking to a three year old and 8 month old just doesn't cut it. I need adult interaction!!!

Speaking of 8 months...Jackson turned 8 months yesterday! My baby is getting so big! I am affirmed in this as we go out in public. People see the infant carrier and they expect to see a baby. Nearly every time they say, "Awwww,"  but then as they peek in the carrier we hear, "OH! Oh! He is a big boy!" :) Cracks me up! He's got such a round face that if you just see his face he just looks huge. :)

She's becoming quite the poser. :)

Isn't it like a rule or something - that you have to have multiple bath pictures of your kids with other kids? :)
