April will be gone before we know it!

Just a quick entry to let everyone know that we are doing well. Baby Hooper must be getting bigger, because mama sure is. [See photo taken at 18 weeks] I am starting to feel some fluttering movements that I can only assume is the baby moving. It is exciting, but I always wish it would happen again so I can be sure.

April is a busy month for us. I've already managed to forget my brother in law's birthday... .Sorry, David. Your card is in the mail! I am hosting a baby shower and hosting book club this month in addition to wrapping up the Junior League year as an advisor. This is the busy time helping the members in my region make sure they completed their requirements. On top of that I'm staying somewhat busy with my real job... I am working with 3 home sellers and at least a half a dozen home buyers - some that are serious others that are not sure what they are doing. That tax credit for new home buyers is amazing and I hope everyone you know is taking advantage of that along with the record low interest rates. April 20th we will find out if the baby is a boy or a girl. Once we know this, the real preperation begins! Finally, I will wrap up the month with a trip to Atlanta to see my dear friend Wendy.

Eric is still saving lives and being our hero. He is really keeping busy with his new business Rock Solid Bobcats and has more business than they know what to do with. He's built a retaining wall in our yard that looks really great! [see photo below of Eric playing in the dirt] Now, we just need some sod and trees and we'll finally have a yard that is enjoyable to someone other than Jax! Speaking of furbabies, Jasper is really enjoying the new items that are coming to the household for the baby. He is pretty sure they all belong to him. [see photos below of Jasper claiming the glider and stroller] These photos were completely unsolicited. Jasper made his way on his own. Jax and Jasper only have a little over 4 months to remain the favored dependents... then their world will change! Until next time... we love ya'll!
