anticipating::the arrival of 3 new babes, due in June, to three of our favorite couple friends.
welcoming:: Spring surprises just outside the doors of a house we've only known in Winter...lilac bushes, an apple tree, baby bunnies, a sprinkler system, green grass, bird nests, SPACE!
appreciating::the satisfaction of finding a good bargain...a buttery-yellow chenille bedspread (for a bed? curtains? a baby blanket? Oh, the possibilities!) and a wicker basket to house my fabric for under $10 at a garage sale.
enjoying:: the many outdoor responsibilities that come with home-ownership...like mowing the lawn and filling the bird feeders.
laughing::at the plastic debris scattered in our backyard...we've earned the reputation of best yard for playing and sunning - we're so proud :).
hoping:: M and S's preoccupation with going "pee-pee" will lead to a successful and smooth transition into potty training.
savoring:: freshly baked homemade bread and its heavenly aroma...I found a second-hand bread machine and used Joy's Honey Wheat Flax bread recipe.
loving:: this delightful stage of my pregnancy...6 1/2 months along, not too tired, not too uncomfortable, pleasantly round, feeling the little one kick and stretch, still feeling cute.
wishing:: you all a wonderful, sun-soaked, fun-filled weekend!

Pretty awesome, all around!
We'd like to come play in that plastic-full yard sometime, and I always like to squeeze little biscuits.
1. Creative post idea!
2. Your happiness is contagious - thanks!
3. That first picture of Smith (I'm pretty sure) eating the doughnut looks EXACTLY like Matt's baby pictures.
4. Matt's legs look outrageously long on that lawn mower, don't they?
5. I think your garage sales in Bozeman must be better than ours in Billings.
6. You look LOVELY.
7. Thank you for posting the picture of the baby butts! It doesn't get any better - unless of course I could pinch them too.
8. Love you all!
I can't believe you are already 6 1/2 months along. Time flies by when it's not you. You look great. Love Matt's white legs too. We just moved into home ownership too and so far, I love those chores...as long as its for your own place. Cute buns, I mean boys. They are getting big.
ps, i really want to come see you this summer. I will be driving through Bozeman after the 4th sometime and would love to stop in and say hi. Let me know.
My verbs:
Laughing: two little boy bottoms!
enjoying: Your news about home ownership. I want to fix things in my house, but its just a rental and Id be throwing money away. But some day!
Reece I lost Matt's phone number. I was in Bozeman and wanted to see if I could take you guys out to dinner and catch up but when I went through my address book you were not there. Could you email it to me please.
Also my wife was inspired by your blog and started her own so that is pretty fun.
My email is andrewNiemants@gmail.com
also sorry for spelling your name wrong. I know it is Reese but the auto spell check fixed it without my permission.
Yes, that picture of Smith is Matt all over again. wow that is amazing. It was great spending time with you guys this past weekend. Have a great week. Andy lost your phone number and that is the reason I am trying to hold onto our land line. We will see.
