Bad Blogger

Wow, I have been a really bad blogger lately.  But I think I have a pretty good excuse, and here is what it is...
We are so excited to be expecting baby number 4 to join our family sometime in July.  My official due date is July 30, but the closest I have come to my due date so far is 3 weeks before, so we will see what happens.  

But in the meantime, here is a few of the things that we have been up to.  The boys LOVED the few snow storms we had and LOVED "helping shovel" the snow with Dad.  
 One day when I was doing the boys hair, Keagan and Bauer decided they wanted mowhawks. 
We have fun making cookies to take to a Superbowl Party.  The cookies on the left were purple, although the picture made them look a little more blue. 
 
Almost exactly a year ago, my boys received the most amazing package in the mail from their Aunt Vera.  It included a tractor shirt for each boy, a suit for keagan (which he still continues to wear almost every Sunday and Deker talks about how he will get to wear it when it gets too small for keagan). And most importantly Tractor silverware.  Well this morning for breakfast we got the tractor silverware out.  I love watching how "all boy" my boys are and even though they usually eat their food acting like tractors it is fun to see the joy they have in using these awesome tractor silverware.  I just couldn't help getting the camera out and taking pictures of them again.  

Then I decided to look up the old post and I was completely amazed at how much they have changed and look so much more grown-up now than they did a year ago. Check out the original post here...and then look at these pictures
After looking at those pictures from last year I had the boys wear those same shirts and took another picture. 

I may or may not have bribed the kids to take the more serious picture above because they seem to think they just need to take silly pictures all the time like this one below.

Love it--I've been wondering where you are. I have missed seeing all the antics the boys are up to. Glad you are back!

Boy I sure miss you and your family. What fun! And if I haven't said it enough, I am so excited for Baby 4. I am thinking lots of girly thoughts in that department!
