Lazy Spring days

Things have been abnormally relaxing around here lately!! We've been hanging around the house a lot, going to the parks with friends, etc. Mark has been crazy as ever, but that it to be expected with the weather we've been having. There hasn't been a night since it got warm that he's been home before 9:00!! Hopefully another few weeks and he should be able to come home a little earlier!! The kids have been loving the weather, but Claire does really mind the heat!! She sweats a lot, but keeps her happy self in tact!! :) We got a swing set from my cousin that he built himself, and it is amazing at keeping the kids busy! Ben wanted a pulley, so Mark put one up for him and he has such a blast with it!

Welcome to the World Caitlin

My niece has made her entrance into the world!! She was born last night around 10:30. She weighed in at 9 pounds, 11 ounces and was 21 inches long! She is a big girl, but beautiful and perfect!! Michelle had to have a c-section due to the fact that the baby's heart rate kept dropping. She is currently in the NICU, but should come home with Michelle on Friday. They are just giving her some antibiotics as a precautionary measure. We are so excited to finally have her here!! It has been a rough pregnancy for Michelle, but I would definitely say well worth all the trouble! :)
