hana

hana is really growing up. she has matured a lot of over the last year. she and brooke play well together about 80% of the time. they pretend to be doggies or kitties. they love to cook in the kitchen or play with play dough. i can't believe that hana is 4 and this time next year we will be thinking about kindergarten!! man time flies. she is doing really well at preschool. she is starting to spell words. she can also add up to 5 +5 (anything that she can use her fingers for). and what is really amazing is that no one taught her this... she just kind of did it on her own :) she is pretty amazing!! daily she asks me if the baby is still in my tummy and how big it is. i think she is going to be a great big sister (again!)

brooke

brooke is also growing up and totally entering her 2s! she has started hitting younger kids (something i never thought she would do!). i defiantly have to watch her around anyone younger. hopefully this will pass before baby 3 arrives! she is still very vocal. she makes 4 or 5 word sentences. she also knows most of her colors (just this morning i walked in and she said "purple shirt mommy"... and i was indeed wearing a purple shirt). but since she is almost 2 she may or may not tell you what color something is if you ask. she is still very sweet (when she is not hitting) and loves to cuddle!

baby

i am 15 weeks and went to the dr today. the heartbeat is 164. the dr says everything looks good :)

on sunday i felt "him" do a flip or something. it must have been right below the surface because i felt every appendage! super fun! i go next week for an ultrasound (but not THE ultrasound... that is april 8th). it is always nice to see the little one!

don't forget to take the survey... what will the sex of our baby be??!!

financial peace

we are still working very hard on having financial peace. we bought a van with cash! we are now in the process of selling our other van (so if you know someone who wants it- let us know!!) here is the link to the ad if anyone is interested!

we also had a yard sale on saturday. it went really well!! jack got a bonus and with that and some taxes we paid off our small credit card. after we sell the car, we will only have the big credit card left. it will still take us a while to pay that off... but we are well on the road to financial freedom!!!
