Wow has it been crazy!

Well it has been a long time since I have posted but the last two months have been a blur. For those of you that do not know, we are expecting our second baby on September 20th. We are very excited and were a little surprised. I am finally feeling better, I did not have as much sickness this time but was just really tired. Pretty much for the last month and a half I have been working and sleeping. Thank goodness for my wonderful husband who has helped out so much. Everything is going great with the pregnancy and we had our ultrasound at the beginning of this month.

Jeremy was laid off at the end of February from his job as a recruiter but will be starting a job at Liberty Mutual on Monday. He will sell home, car and life insurance and we think this is going to be a great opportunity for him. He will have to do some traveling in May and June but this is going to be fun for us too. Jeremy's boss let him know that Corinne and I are more then welcome to go on the June trip to Orlando, so I think we have to do it. The company is going to pay for my plane ticket too, and Corinne still does not cost anything. The only problem is Jeremy has to go on the 8th and I am not done with school till the 10th so I am going to have to fly myself. Some of you may know that I am not really that great at flying and it has been over two years since I last flew so this may be tricky. I am also worried about how to keep an 18 month old busy on a plane for an 1 1/2 flight and be six months pregnant. I will find a way to do it though!


We have only had one playdate with Hannah since February and we have only been to a couple of family functions. My nephew Keith turned 16 in February so we went to that and then just a couple of visits to my parents and one to Wheeling. We also have made a couple trips to the zoo and Jeremy just found out in the last week that Corinne loves the playground at Polaris. We also went to the Half-Pint Hullabuloo at the Westerville Community Center last week with Jack and Tiffany and had a great time.

Corinne at the Petting Zoo for the first time (I never let her do it last year)
Corinne is growing like a weed and is into everything. She is a very independent little girl which is going to come in handy in about six months. She is saying tons of things now and repeats everything. Since it has been nice we have been taking lots of family walks and she will no longer ride in the stroller, she walks the whole 1/2 mile most days. She has also been playing at the park and loves to swing and slide. Corinne also loves to help with the dishes now and I am including some pictures of her helping with the dishes.

Overall it has been some very nice family time in the last month and we a looking forward to the warm weather coming. Corinne is really an outside girls which I am thankful for since Jeremy and I like to be outside so much. In two weeks I will be on Spring Break for 10 days and then we will only have seven weeks till the end of the year. I am looking forward to some qualitly time with friends and family in the coming months!
