First post in 2007

SO we have been so busy with work, school and pregnancy that we have failed in our blogging.

My company has been experiencing a great deal of change with the new CEO and Abby has been trying to get as much time at the hospital as she can handle with the pregnancy, but as we enter the home stretch of this pregnancy we are both trying to pull back somewhat on our work schedules and focus on being home and with the boys.

The boys have both been more interested in riding bikes and for a while there it was warming up and looked like we would be able to start swimming soon.

Jesse has been out of school for the last two weeks on spring break and I think both he and Abby are ready for school to start and the routine to return. He began piano lessons (thanks to great Grandma!) and seems to be very interested in learning.

Joshua has moved up a level in gymnastics and is finally with a group of boys that have more ability with him. I hope he remains challenged and continues to enjoy this as much as he has been. He is also turning into the world's biggest Star Wars fan. He has been showing more interest in reading and we are doing our best to keep him focused on that.

Abby is extremely busy with the boys and girl. She is a true champion. I can not believe the amount of things she is able to accomplish with a 30 lb beach ball attached to the front of her. As the due date draws nearer the time has seemed to slow and she is ready to be done with this stage and to move on to the next.

I have been working and travelling for work. My dad came down and helped me get our pool and back yard ready for summer after we had a bad freeze this winter. One of my new hobbies has been to introduce the boys to their desert home. We have spent several Saturdays exploring and taking pictures. I will try to post some of them.

We have decided to start looking for a new church as a family. Jesse was not growing and even though it is difficult to start over we needed to do what was best for all family members.
