Bouncy Bounce

Sydney has a bounce that she goes crazy in when we she is playing in the bouncer. Over the past week or two she is has started bouncing on your legs, ground, grass, or whatever you are holding her on. During General Conference last weekend Paul was holding her and she wouldn't stop for like 10 minutes so I finally busted out the camera. She was cracking herself up and us as well.

Easter Party

Last weekend was Paul's work Easter Party for the little kids. We decided to take Sydney to it even though she is still really young and doesn't know what is going on. She didn't cry at all when she saw the clown or the Easter bunny so that was a plus, but at the same time she didn't sit on either of their laps.

We also participated in the egg hunt with her trying to win a big wheel car. It was fun but we didn't win, that is okay though. Sydney even tried to grab at the eggs but they were a little to big for her little hands. But it was fun to go and see everyone and have Syd participate.

Opinions Needed

All right folks, you all know of our new situation about having another baby. We are having a hard time deciding if we should buy another crib or buy Sydney a toddler bed. We are not sure if she will be ready for a toddler bed at one or so. Any advice anyone can provide would be very welcomed.

Also any ideas for names would be great too. We are having a hard time thinking of some we like so its nice to hear other people ideas, even though we do have 20 weeks still. Thanks for your help everyone!! Love you all

A little Baby....

So today I took the adventure of heading up to Fresno for my 20 week ultrasound. I know some of you might be floored that I am 20 weeks along, but trust me I am too. Well the results are in, we have so far a healthy little baby and it is a BOY!!! We are so excited for this little baby boy to join our family.

What Sydney has been up too....

Here are some videos of Sydney. She is growing like crazy, so I hope you enjoy them.

Washington Trip

On our trip to Washington to find a place to live, we took a day off from house hunting and went to Seattle. We didn't stay long because we didn't have a stroller and it was kind of cold so we only went to a few sites. I think the funnest thing had to be going to the Space Needle. We decided to splurge and eat at the restaurant inside the Needle. It was so much fun, you get to see all of Seattle as you rotate while eating. We could even see Mt. Rainer from the Needle, it is huge and so amazing. I recommend anyone going to Seattle to go to the Space Needle its a little pricey but worth the site and the excitement.

We were lucky with our trip and looked at several houses on the two different bases and a few other houses out in town that members of the church were renting out. We have narrowed it down between a base house and a house out in town. Boy its a lot harder than I thought it would ever be to decide what will be best for our family for the next three years. Lets hope we make our decision soon. It was a fun trip but made a realize we are spoiled by the warm weather of Lemoore.

Huge Changes

Well in the Nelson family we are proud to announce two new huge changes to our family. Most you already know them but for those of you who don't here you go, and for those that do here is more information.

1. We will be moving to Bremerton, Washington on May 26, that is when we are scheduled to leave Lemoore. (YES!!!!no more nasty cows)


2. We are pregnant AGAIN. Trust me this was a total shock when I found out in December and today seeing the baby was a shock again that this was really happening. It was not planned and I am not allowed to say it was a mistake. So our Surprise baby is due August 11; it has a great heart beat, everything looks perfect thus far, and we are 13 weeks along. Yes, Sydney and baby #2 will be 11 months apart, I don't know how I am going to handle this and I have had very mixed feeling about this pregnancy. I still can't say that I am out right excited, but we know this is happening for a reason.


Oh and another fun little thing. Paul got his Associates degree this week. I am so proud of him for accomplishing that and we are now halfway done with his bachelors. Good job babe!!
