Big Boy Bed!

Since Elliot wasn't sleeping very good in his crib, we thought it was time to make the move to a big boy bed.  We all went to the furniture store, and Elliot picked out the bed that he wanted.  About a  week before it was to be delivered, we found out about our new little arrival, so we had to delay the delivery and go pick out a different bedroom set since the boys will be sharing a room.  We cancelled the queen size bed and got bunk beds instead :)  Noah has been asking about bunk beds forever, so he was ecstatic to find out that he was finally going to get his wish.  The boys have had several 'test runs' with sharing the room, but haven't quite figured it out yet.  There seems to be a lot of talking, etc. so for now each is in their own separate room.  We have a little bit of time to figure this out before the baby comes!  Elliot was super excited when his new room was set up, and has slept good in his bed for the most part (there were a few nights of 'messing around' and he thought it was fun to empty his entire closet and dresser drawers.  In his defense, he didn't leave his room, but the rules were tightened up a bit)

So comfy

Easter

We typically don't travel back home for Easter since it is such a short weekend, but since we had both school and work off the following Monday, we decided to make the trip this year.  The weather was beautiful, and the kids enjoyed playing with their cousins, hunting for Easter eggs, and playing outside.  We also waited to tell our families that we were expecting until Easter, so it was an exciting weekend for that too :)  The Easter Bunny got confused and came a week early to our house.  We think that he just knew we were going to be gone so he came early :)

Big News!

Noah and Elliot are super excited to announce that they are both going to be BIG brothers!  We are very excited (and shocked) that we will be adding another little one to our family in early November! And maybe the best part.....it's a GIRL!  We found out very early (10 weeks) that it was a girl due to special testing that was performed for other reasons, and we verified and saw for ourselves the gender at the 20 week ultrasound.  We couldn't be happier to be adding a little pink to the family, and can't wait for Baby Girl Owens to complete our family :)
