Easter

The holidays keep getting more exciting. Kambree loves each one and gets more excited as she gets older. She was so excited to see the Easter Bunny this year. We told her about it a few weeks before Easter and she kept saying "Easter Bunny Coming?" everyday. She even would sleep with all her bunny stuffed animals. When we went to the mall to see him she was so excited and kept yelling in line, "Hi Easter bunny, I Kambree". When she sat on his lap she kept hugging and kissing him.

She was so cute posing for pictures on Sunday. I think she loves getting her picture taken, probably because we do it too much :)

Jake's new hobby!

Last year Jake had a really bad injury while playing softball. He has been out of commission for some time now and always looked like a sad puppy dog when I would finish my races or go work out. Lately he got into swimming and I suggested he sign up for a Sprint Triathalon. So we looked it up and I made him sign up right then so he couldn't back out. He only had about 6 weeks to train but was so diligent at following his schedule that he set up. He hurt his knee last week while playing church ball but was determined to still do the race. It has been so fun to see him so motivated and enjoying something so much. We already spent a bunch of money on stuff for the race but I could see a street bike on the wish list in the near future.

Not Jake: Just humorous people dressed up

 I wish I could have got the picture but my dad ran up with Kambree so she could give him a high five.

 Kambree had so much fun with Grandpa Turkey playing and rolling in the grass.

 This guy cracked me up. He was riding a little girl bike with a pink helmet.

 Finish time 1 hour 25 minutes! Great job Jake. We are so proud of you!

What have we been up to?

Well not much going on here. I am sad to say there is so much that I still want to get done in the house but pregnancy this time around has been so hard. It seems like morning sickness lasted forever (well until 22 weeks.) And then the heartburn started up right away. This week I had a really sharp pain in my chest that lasted about 24 hours. I am hoping it doesn't come back, I think it was an air bubble or something in my lungs. All I know is it was super painful. I am now 28 weeks so still quite a few weeks to go. Hopefully that burst of energy will come back.

Kambree has been having lots of fun playing outside lots more. She asks to go to the park everyday so we try to go over for a little bit and rotate off with going there, swimming and going to Thanksgiving Point. We tried potty training for 2 days and then had to take a break on Sunday since Jake's mom was in the hospital. We never got back into it but I guess I need to start up again. She went 3 times in the potty but only because she was sitting there reading books or watching tv. I am open to any tips you have. I wonder if she is ready but then I hear of all sorts of people who have worked it out already at 18 months. They are amazing mom's I have decided. These are the black mail pictures Jake got of her.

Jake has been training for his first sprint triathalon. He will be doing it in 2 weeks. Today he did the whole thing as a trial run. He actually did more then he will be doing race day. It was fun to see how pumped he was and I have loved seeing him enjoying doing something again since he injured his leg last summer. The other day he asked me to cut his hair. Well actually he has been asking me to cut it for over a month. It is the longest his hair has ever been. I came in to cut it only to find him blow drying it into a huge AFRO. It was so funny looking that I had to take a picture. 

And that's about it in our life. We are staying busy working and enjoying the warmer weather. Hope you are all doing well!
