And Then There Were Four

We're creating this blog because it's the cool thing to do when people are having a baby. Just kidding, really we already have a hard enough time keeping up with everyone we want to, and our lives are about to get even more wonderfully busy. We can't wait - and we want you guys to be able to share in it too, so we both plan on reporting on it. Read at your own risk, and hopefully you'll enjoy it!

Spring Forward

Reasons our household is ready/excited for spring....


#1- NO MORE COLD/FLU SEASON. It seems as though we've dealt with one round after another of illness in our house and I'm so ready to throw open the windows, air out the germs and suffer from allergies rather than colds and vomiting. Poor Ben was sick again this past weekend....only a fever...no other symptoms but still not fun for him or us. Luckily Brian's parents were in town this weekend so we had extra hands to help, extra arms to cuddle. Time to be done with cold and flu season.

#2- Regular outdoor walks. My pediatrician is from the midwest, has good midwestern blood that is immune to cold and able to handle snow in vast quantities. She was of the opinion that we could take Ben out in any weather as long as he was bundled up and properly dressed. We probably could have......but we ourselves must have lost the midwest in us and our move south of the Mason Dixon has destroyed our tolerance for the cold. Ben will enjoy sitting in his jogger or his pink car much more when it is warmer and we'll enjoy taking him out again.


#3- We have an exciting spring coming up! We're looking forward to visits from both sets of parents, my siblings, 3 weddings, a trip to Denver, a trip to Michigan and much more.


Ready for spring!
