We are so excited for the warm weather! Today a friend of ours pointed out how lucky we are to live by a park, and I can’t agree more! Especially since Haley is able to walk there, and I don’t even have to take a stroller. And I really like the playground, too. It’s a pretty little park with lots of space to run. Haley and Amy swing together (on the big girl swings). There are two swings for the big kids and two for little kids, but Haley wants to do what Amy does, so she swings on the big swing, too. I remember Amy being afraid of that swing at 3. Haley is not even 2 yet. 🙂 Second kids are more daring I think.
Our church organized a Daddy-Daughter Dance last month. The girls dressed up real pretty, and the dads took them on a “date.” It was very nice from what I heard. Amy kept saying it was 100 nice (meaning it was super amazing). Amy loves to dress up, loves to be with her daddy, and loves to be with her friends at church, so it was an unforgettable night for her. I am so glad she got to go. |

She also got to go to a Wild Kratts live show in Bloomington. Wild Kratts is her favorite show (it’s on PBSkids), and ever since she was watching it, she had this dream of meeting the actual Kratt brothers. A family from our church gave us two of their tickets, so Chris and Amy could join them to the show. Amy was so excited to be there and to meet the Kratt brothers! She said it was incredible.

I think it was the most exciting thing she has ever done. We are very thankful she could go. We are constantly blessed by our friends.

Haley is such a cute toddler! She will be 20 months old tomorrow! She likes to sign, but she started to say a few things, too. She is very good at understanding us. And she uses her signs/words/body language to make sure we understand her, too. She loves playing with babies and being their mommy. She puts them to bed, put the blanket on them, and give them kisses. She is a lot like me when I was her age. 🙂
Chris had his appointment with his doctor, and the sleep study came back normal, so the doctor suggested he switches his medicine and see what happens. So he is trying another medicine and see if that does the trick. |

And let me close with a praise: David and Becky are moving back next week! We are so excited for them 1) to be almost done with school, 2) for coming back, and 3) for starting a new chapter in their lives. We missed them very much and they haven’t even met Haley yet! So we are glad they are moving back and we can get together with them again.
