House and Joshie updates
Well yesterday we took the plunge into home ownership! We bought the house! Although, it is NOT the one on our previous blog, we decided to go with one floor plan up, so it is actually a little bigger :) You can go to this website to see the floor plan: http://www.bigghomes.com/concord.php
On a not so great note, Joshie had more tests at the hospital yesterday that revealed that he has Vesicoureteral Reflux. Basically meaning that his urine is being pushed back into his kidneys instead of leaving his body. This is why he had the massive kidney infection recently. Over time, it can cause kidney scarring, and with enough scarring can cause kidney failure. We are waiting on the doctors phone call to tell us where we go from here. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers.

Recent Kid pics
Both kids are doing well- Joshie is finally recovering from his bout of hospital visits and illnesses, we have some diagnostic testing this week to complete but hopefully after that we will have some answers on why he has had his most recent problems.
Avalinea is 7 months old already! And just recently learned how to sit up! She is also babbleing Da-da-da all the time. Why do babies always say that first?!? She is a very happy baby, except at around 9 pm every night when she is ready for bed. I can't believe she is 7 months already, why can't pregnancy go this fast?

My babies (well one is not such a baby anymore)
I'm so grateful for my beautiful babies! They bring joy to my life everyday and even though being a mother is the hardest thing I have ever done, it the most rewarding as well. I love seeing Joshie learn new things everyday and become more of a little boy. (with quite the attitude at times! - he must get that from his dad ;) ) And Avalinea is just such a happy baby, she is all smiles for us and loves to play. We have been greatly blessed to have such even tempered and loving children!

Sunday Best
Avalinea got all dressed up for church today. Its the first time she fits into her very fancy dresses, so of course we had to take lots of pictures! She does great at church! Sleeps most of the time, which is a lot more than we can say for her brother! Joshie keeps us on our toes at all times.
On that note, I always said I was NOT going to be one of those Mothers that let their children run wild up the isles of church and screamed like banshees during sacrament. I distinctly remember rolling my eyes quite a bit and thinking how much better behaved my children would be. These are the thoughts of an ignorant yet to be mother. My eyes have been opened. I have learned that these Mothers are not really "letting" their children commit these acts, they're just simply trying to "get through" the longest hour of church with their sanity intact. The hour that does not include the place of every parents dream; mommy and daddy vacation time; the place we know as "nursery". I have been humbled and will no longer be so judgmental of these Mothers. (Though we still try and grab the little monster before he actually makes it up to the stand)

Easter!!!
So we had easter at our house this year. Josh and I cooked a very yummy dinner consisting of Honey Baked Ham, Twice baked potatoes, steamed veggies, garlic bread sticks, macaroni salad, peach pie and vanilla/chocolate pudding pie.
We had Dad, Katelyn, and Alayna over to enjoy the festivities with us.
We colored eggs the night before and then were able to have a great easter egg hunt with Joshie following dinner.
As a family we are very grateful for our Savior who has made sacrifices to make our family eternal!!
Here are some pictures from our fun day!
