Well, it's been awhile since I've updated this blog....more than a year! Yikes! A LOT has happened in that year and I don't think I'll ever catch up! So I'm going to start with some recent things and just go from there. One of the major things that has happened in the last year is that we've moved from Iowa to the great state of Oklahoma! Jeremy was accepted into the oral surgery residency program here and so far we love it. Iowa and Oklahoma were two states I didn't really think I would live.....ever.....but we love it here! We've made good friends and Jeremy loves his program.

First of all, Evan is a very precocious 2 1/2 yr old. He has changed so much in the last year! I love this stage because he's interested in everything and I can actually have conversations with him. He loves space, the planets (he knows them all--even that Pluto is now a dwarf planet), the stars and moon, he love playing with choo-choos (Thomas being his choo choo of choice) and cars, and LOVES playing basketball. He's actually really good at it, too. He loves going to the science museum here in Oklahoma and his favorite animal to see at the zoo is the rabbits.

He's starting to make friends and his best friend is this cute little boy down the street named Brayden who also goes to church with us. They have the best time together! In his prayers every night Evan thanks Heavenly Father for Brayden; it's very cute. His parents are some of our good friends too. For Easter we went to their house for a BBQ and easter egg hunt. It was Evan's first real experience with hunting for eggs and of course he loved it! He would get an egg, open it up to see what was inside, then go get another one. It was the cutest thing!

The other MAJOR thing that has happened to us in the last year is the news that we're not just expecting one more bundle of joy--we're expecting TWO! The twins are due in the next couple of weeks now and mommy is a little freaked out, but very excited. We're having a boy and a girl, which we thought was just perfect! Our friends around here have been extremely helpful with the whole process of being pregnant with twins. Since a multiple pregnancy is considered high risk, I got to have ultrasounds every 5 weeks, which was really fun to see the babies grow!
That's all for now!
