Shady Lane Splash Park

We had a really fun time at the Splash Park with our playgroup this week. Elena LOVED running through the fountain! She was surprised by the fountain at first, and when the water would all die down for a minute, she would want to know where it went, and asked please for it to come back. :)







She had fun playing toys in the water with her friends, too. We love our playgroup!

I am behind on preggo photos--I will take one soon! Olivia is doing great, though, measuring perfectly and growing big and strong, as far as we know. :) She still likes to flip around from side to side, especially when I lay down to go to sleep for the night--silly girl. And she is starting to stretch out with even greater force than before, making my belly dance. I am excited that we're getting closer to seeing her!

We don't want Olivia to come too fast, though--we need to move first! We are planning to close on the house tomorrow, as long as the loan comes through. As far as we know it will, but we have not heard--cutting it close! If not tomorrow, then early next week we will close and we will move in on May 15. We have some help lined up for painting and for moving, which is a blessing. I am planning on buying fume-free paint so I can actually help, though I think I will have to stay away from the priming. We are getting the house packed up slowly but surely, though being pregnant is a big handicap in moving! I am SOOO grateful that Mom is coming to help us move--it will be great to have her help finish up packing, cleaning, and distracting Elena Grace so I can do things! Mom is the BEST!

We are really looking forward to being in a house--we have been in "temporary" places for so long, it will be great to have a home and make it really ours. Thanks for all your prayers--we are so grateful for the ways the Lord has been leading us and providing for us.
