4 Weeks To Go...

We are so thrilled that we will get to meet our little one in 4 weeks or less! We have been busy preparing for there to be a baby in the house again. What laundry can be done (because we don't know the sex) is complete; Vada is sleeping in her BIG girl (toddler) bed and we are currently working on potty training. With any luck we might be completely potty trained when the baby comes. Keep us in your prayers;)

The baby is already bigger than Vada was at birth. We are so thankful for a happy and healthy baby so far! We go twice a week for stress tests to ensure the baby is doing well. Needless to say it makes our weeks go by VERY fast and helps us sleep good knowing the baby is doing well. We are excited to spend some 1-on-1 time with Vada over the next several weeks before she becomes a BIG sister. She loves and has memorized her newest BIG SISTER book. I cannot wait to have this baby and welcome another child into our family, but I am also so excited for Vada to meet her sibling:) I hope to post one more update before the arrival of our next little blessing...we will see!

Since our last post we have been to Nebraska to celebrate Easter with the Riegle/Booth families and Florida for a nice 5 day trip in the middle of April with the Bowmans.

Some of Vada's favorite things lately are stickers; baby dolls; shopping with her grocery cart and play groceries; picking out her own bows; all things DADDY; cheering for herself when she uses the big girl potty; coloring; anything outside and her new found love of swimming!  (She is a fish and gets it from Aunt Holli!)

Here are some pictures of our latest adventures.
