Almost Ready!
We are just down to painting and bedding for our little guy! I had a wonderful surprise diaper dash/shower Sunday and Cole's closet is FULL of diapers and adorable clothes! It is so strange for me to see tiny clothes in the closet that aren't all girly with pink and frills but we are loving it and the girls love to look at all the tiny clothes too. Sunday was such a nice day, other than the weather, we had a great time at Eric's restaurant and it was such a unexpected and nice surprise and really great timing with the last month I have had. Now it seems even more real that my due date is approaching, as if my bulging belling didn't clue me in daily:)

Easter Weekend
We started the Holiday weekend out with a little neighborhood fun, a local church put on a block party for our neighborhood complete with good company, BBQ and bounce houses. All the girls had to hear was bounce and they were putting their shoes on! Mostly it was people from the church as I think the Holiday weekend had many people celebrating with family but we met some great people and a church to add to my list of those we are checking out to attend on a regular basis.
Jenna and I talked a lot about the meaning of Easter and its history along with the fun of the Easter bunny. She was so sweet listening and we separated our day into Easter Bunny fun Sunday morning where the girls were each left a basket of goodies and a T-Ball set for Ava and a new bike for Jenna. Then it was on to my cousin's church for a beautiful service! Jenna and I spend Saturday talking about Resurrection Day...which she keeps calling "Correction Day" and the real meaning of Easter's celebration. Both girls were so proud of their birthstone cross necklaces they recieved The rest of the day was centered on fun with the kids, Easter baskets, Egg hunts and family.

Enjoying Spring
29 weeks and getting bigger...Yikes!
Feeding the ducks has become our new found passion in the Walker home. The girls and I take walks as often as possible and they absolutely love walking to the lake and feeding the ducks, we have bread on hand with every walk we take now because we are sure to find several ducks waiting at random parts of the lake during our walks...and lately walking across our yard. Our favorite spot to go is also the favorite fishing spot with Daddy too! Jenna has named the pair of white ducks, Henry and Pearl. They are the most friendly and will come right up to us for their bites of bread. The kids love this, while I am a tiny bit cautious of a major attack unfolding throwing the bread back to scoot them away.
We have been enjoying outdoors as much as possible with lunches on the deck and bike/car rides in the driveway until our fun snowy day in the first week of April! No more of that, thank you! We have been spring cleaning and trying to organize before our new addition arrives. I am 29 weeks today and I have a feeling the next 11 weeks are going to fly by with all we have to do. To say that I feel a little stress would be an understatement but it will be fun over the next few weeks painting and getting a blue room ready. I took some of the baby girl clothes to Once Upon a Child to sell and planned to pick up a few little boy outfits but I was so out of my comfort zone and as silly as it sounds found myself overwhelmed and left empty handed. Next week I plan to return and leave with some clothes for our little man.
We are also car shopping, since the small car we purchased a couple a years ago when we were both commuting will not fit 3 car seats! I am so excited to have a second car in our family again!! Finally the kids and I can get out of the ! We have a lot of activities planned before Cole arrives...Zoo, Science Center, Butterfly House, Arch and many more neighborhood functions too!
