Five Facts Friday (4/8)

1. We've spent a lot of time out in the backyard this week soaking up this gorgeous weather we've been having. They have loved every minute and beg to go out several times a day. 




2.  Learning time has centered on farm life this week. We checked out 17 books, and we've enjoyed them so far! 
Here are a few things Jack has worked on :)





3.  The Husband decided to cut a hole in the garage wall this morning. 

4.  The weeds in our backyard are OUT OF CONTROL. I found a recipe for natural weed killer on Pinterest and mixed it up. 

5.  Speaking of backyards...
I put together a pallet garden  :) 
(Another nifty idea I found on Pinterest!)

    This has been a very busy week for you! Is Spencer going to put in a window in the garage? The kids are going to have so much fun watching the plants grow in the garden. Love you.

      No, he put in the window A/C unit for when he's working in the garage. We're hoping it will also keep the mold growth at bay!

Monday Musings (5/4)

~I'm in the mood to decorate my backyard with beautiful flowers, especially along the fence line. I was thinking rose bushes. But, then. I get email notifications from a company called Joss & Main often with discounted prices and good deals, and today's email showed that, among other things, they had their garden items on sale. I clicked on over and saw the prettiest hydrangeas! I ADORE hydrangeas. We had them in our wedding, and they were so simple and beautiful. Unfortunately, they already sold out of all of their hydrangeas!!  BOO.  I'll keep looking around to find some good deals.  If you're also in the gardening mood, check out their sales . Maybe they'll have the plant, garden item, outdoor furniture, or other item for around the house you're searching for. ~Saturday morning, my mom and I took the kids to our local consignment shop. They were having a birthday/reopening/moving celebration and had prizes and food and a man doing face painting.

Introducing....

I know I left you all in suspense. Right now I'm running on very little sleep (we were awake for 25 hours straight, & I've slept an hour and 45 minutes total since then), so this is more informative and less story-like--his birth story will come later. I have to tell it, at some point, because it was nothing short of amazing.  And traumatic.  And I may have to gather more details from those who might remember it more clearly. So, without further ado... (And with a very grainy picture from my iPad taken in the early light of day--6:45), I'd like to introduce you to our son. Jack Campbell Born on 6-11-13 at 1:11 am (he's almost 6 hours old) Weighing 6 pounds 2 ounces (praise God!!) and measuring 18.5 inches long.  He's entirely too precious for words.  We feel ridiculously tired and immeasurably blessed. Thank you for praying!

A Little Revealing

**Hehehehe. My blog post title made me giggle.** If you stayed tuned and saw on FB that we'd be announcing this afternoon, then you're in luck.  So, without further adieu, Jack and Ella will be doing the honors.  Now, go on ahead and post in the comments what you guessed :) I was right early on but then changed my mind, so any guess was a good one!
