1. Nate's Birthday
2. Allison's Birthday
3. Nate's Graduation
4. 4 Year Wedding Anniversary
5. House Hunting
6. First trip to the Zoo
Overall, we're doing well and enjoy having Nate come home at 5:30 or 6:00 with no homework or tests to worry about. As some of you may know, he accepted a full time offer at The Generations Network (Ancestry.com, MyFamily.com, etc.). He really likes his job and we're getting used to the idea of staying in Utah.
Cora is growing up so fast. She can now stand up on her own with the help of the couch or any sturdy structure. She is even sleeping better... knock on wood. She always smiles and loves to see other children. She is also a wonderful eater. She loves fruits & vegetables including asparagus, broccoli, carrots, peas, lettuce, pears, apples, bananas, etc. She'll basically eat anything we give her. I wish the same were true for Nate!
We've also begun the house hunt. It is pretty stressful but we hope to be in a home this summer sometime.
We're excited for the Everett Family Reunion this summer where many of my brothers and sisters along with their families will be visiting for week. That will be the highlight of our summer.
Graduation
Oh No!
Cora's first trip to the zoo. She loved the monkeys.
Allison's Birthday. Nate surprised me with a trip to a day spa. It was great!!
Oops...
Cora on the swings... This is almost a daily ritual.
Our latest photo shoot. We'll post more pictures of this later.
