Patience Marie arrived this morning

Marianne and our baby girl are doing well. Patience Marie was 7 lb 8 oz. and will probably also have red hair. Patience, Hunter and Gwendolyn exchanged gifts and
Hunter and Gwendolyn really like working on puzzles. Marianne's parents are visiting to help out.

Easter 2012

We are looking forward to the arrival of our third child tomorrow morning. These are pictures in the month leading up to now. Marianne tweeked her back in March, and we got immediate help from our niece Jennifer. Then we got help this last month from a Nanny named Jessica. We found her on a nanny website, and we were pleasantly surprised that she is LDS.

We had an Easter visit from Kathy, Lincoln and Noah. We had a nice Sunday dinner and easter egg hunt at Steven's sister Diane's house. The Relief Society had a freezer party where friends from the ward brought dinners which could be saved in the freezer. Hunter likes going to pre-school and will start taking the bus this week. We are thankful that this option is available, because it would be more difficult for Marianne to take Hunter with three children.
