Easter Bunny!

My sister Elisha took Lillie to go see the Easter bunny. I thought she was gonna be scared, but she ended up LOVING him! She kept squeeling and laughing and smiling really big the entire time.

Details, details...

Baby:
I'm due October 31st. I have been feeling quite sick and extremely exhausted the last 4 or 5 weeks. Thankfully I haven't thrown up yet, but trust me, I feel like I could at almost any given moment. Atleast when I was prego with Lillie I only felt sick for 3 or 4 hours a day. With this baby it is all day and all night! I even wake up atleast 3 times everynight because I feel so sick. Oh well. It'll go away in a few weeks. It's reassuring to know that this baby needs to come down to our family right now. We had a strong feeling that we needed another baby (despite the shaky circumstances at the time) so we know our lives can only get better!
New job:
Dustin received a job from a company called EDL Construction based out of San Diego. They are a steel building company that work nationwide. Dustin will be a superintendant just doing what he loves- supervising, scheduling, and resolving daily conflicts. It's one of those jobs that you would either think is horrible or awsome. We will move every 4 to 6 months to a completely different location for Dustin to work. We're starting in Jackson Hole, WY and we'll see from there! We are SO excited! I think it will be a fun adventure for us.
We move in about 2 weeks. Dustin is flying down to San Diego on Tuesday and will get more details then. But don't worry, we're expert packers and can pack everything in a day if needs be.
Lots of changes ahead!

Fam Update!

Life has been pretty crazy lately. With me working 5 nights a week, Dustin and I selling plasma twice a week, Dustin moving a few piano's on the side, church callings, Dustin job searching for hours a day... it gets pretty crazy around here! I'm almost caught up on laundry (2 loads left to fold!), and to be honest, I don't really feel like cleaning our disaster of a kitchen tonightYesterday Dustin surprized me with flowers! I love when he does things like that. I love my flowers!

Here's a pic of Lil' taking a bath. She smeared Chef Boyarde ravioli in her hair. She's still walking (more like running), practicing her animal sounds, throwing food on the floor, and saying, "ooooo!" whenever she sees an airplain or the moon. I think she's a bit confused on what the word "moon" means. A few weeks ago we lost Abby. I get home from work around 1:30-1:45am everynight and sometimes I let Abby out for a couple of minutes. She can never find her way back, so Dustin or I end up going outside searching for her and have to carry her back inside! She's def. an indoor cat. She doesn't have claws and she's afraid of spiders.

One night I let her out and forgot about her until the next day at 1:00pm. Sense she can never find her way back and has no survival skills whatsoever (I know, she's a disgrace to animal life), I started panicking. Dustin looked for her nonstop the whole night- we even checked all the local animal shelters. The next morning I said a prayer that she would come back then I went and checked outside our front and sliding glass door and she wasn't there. I started crying, went and poured myself some water, then looked over at the sliding glass door again, and there she was! It was amazing! She smelled dirty and had dirty paws, but she was okay. I'm SOOO glad she came back!
Last, but certainly not least, I finally recieved the jewlery box my dad has been making for me and all my sisters this past week. He was going to make it for Christmas, but soon realized that the task of building 5 intriquite, beautiful jewlery boxes would take a bit longer than 1 month. I love mine! It's made of rich mahogany wood. The best part is that it's made by my dad. Lillie also has a jewlry box from him also. I love my dad!
