We're headed to Kentucky

Here is a bottle cap fortune from Landon's drink a week ago.
A week later Richard interviewed for a job.
The company is Watt Stopper! They do lighting for commercial buildings.
They're buying Richard a car, he picks it out within a week or so. They pay for the insurance, maintenance, and AAA service. They're buying him a laptop, and a Blackberry. And they're paying to move us out there.

Yes, I can officially say all these years of school have paid off and prayers have been answered. We have a job! I never saw myself moving out of state, but I'm really excited about it. Scared, nervous, naive, and really excited to start our new life with our little family.

We'll be moving two weeks after baby's born. hopefully sometime the middle of May.

Easter Eggs

Richard was leaving Friday morning to Rhode Island for a job interview, so we colored eggs together Thursday.



Tonsils Gone!

He didn't get sick very often, and he's only had strep twice. But this little man can snore. Sleep apnea is why he had his tonsils and adenoids removed.
Here's Landon going in to surgery
Here he is just calming down after 20 minutes of just crying. It was so sad. Nobody warned me about the coming out of anesthesia part. He was so mad.

He chose a shoulder ride over the wheel chair, but there were still no smiles until grandma's showed up with gifts. Grandma Russell showed up with dinosaurs and Grandma Nelson brought a dart gun.
He's done awesome. The first two days I couldn't keep him down. Then he started to wear down a little, but he's back to his normal self wishing he could eat all his favorite foods. His voice has changed completely and we don't know if it will go back to normal or not.
But best of all, he no longer snores. He gets the rest he needs and feels better than ever.

Happy Birthday Carson!

Birthday Spotlight
Yep, he's 3, can you believe it? This is my baby. My baby who get's excited over everything. He has so much energy he doesn't know what to do with it. Carson loves fruit snacks, the movie Cars, trains, shoulder rides, going to grandma's, and playing with Landon. He'll introduce himself as a different super hero every time. But he always has laser eyes and freezing powers with sound effects. Oh, and did I mention he can fly? He can often be found wearing cowboy boots and his super cape.
We love you so much Carson and all the smiles you bring into our lives.
Happy Birthday Little Bom Bom!
