Catch Up

Just realized it's been a couple weeks since my last post. Here's a short list of what's been happening:

• Still trying to find a nanny. In the meantime, my family is helping us out on Wednesdays. We are also swapping childcare with Lydia's mom. We have Lydia on Tuesdays and she takes our kids on Friday. It's working out nicely for now.
• We ordered new kitchen cabinets and a built-in dishwasher. I am so excited and can hardly wait to see the difference it will make in our kitchen. After having a couple of estimates done last year, we thought it would be out of the question. However we found a great new designer and she was able to cut the estimate almost in half which means our tax refund will cover it.
• We had fun with the Hagbergs watching the Cyclones play in the NCAA tournament. They had a great season and we can't wait for next year! Ethan and I watched lots of basketball over the weekend and Emma told us that was enough :)
• I managed to fit a breakfast date with Emma in on Saturday. She wanted to do errands with me so we stopped at a little breakfast place in town. Thought she would love it but it ended up with her in tears because her tummy hurt and she didn't like her waffle. Guess we'll try something else next time...
• Other than that, it's just been keeping up with the usual activities and enjoying the beautiful weather! We are excited for Easter and a visit from Ian and Amanda. I return to Florida in April for another work trip so the month will fly by!
