Jacob's Baby Shower

About 20 ladies at church hosted a baby shower for Jacob. We got just about everything we needed to get us started when he arrives. It was good seeing so many friends and family. We are really blessed.

Happy 50th Anniversary

My grandparents celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary on April 19th.

A couple of updates

Curt started his new job as a Paramedic with RPS about two weeks ago. He is based out of Jasper for now while he trains. They just released him to work on his own so we are hoping he'll have a set schedule in the next few weeks or so. Rachel and I have loved having him home so much, especially in the evenings. Rachel talks him into letting her stay home with him all day a couple days out of the week.

I am 30 weeks today. It's hard to believe we only have 10 weeks to go until Jacob is due to arrive. I am going to the dr every two weeks now. I failed the first sugar test but passed the second one. I've gained 23 lbs so far (yikes) but everything else looks great. Jacob is a very active little guy. He kicks and moves constantly.

Curt started painting the nursery today. The bed and bedding are in so hopefully I can post pictures of it soon.

Easter Sunday

The Easter bunny brought Rachel flip flops, pajamas, sunglasses, fingernail polish, and a notebook. She said she was glad the easter bunny brought her cool things.

We went to church then to my grandmother's for lunch. It was delicious as always and we ate way too much! Afterwards we had to do our traditional photo shoot with all the kids. I am 29 weeks in these pictures and the pounds are definately showing.

Easter at the Griers

We had Easter dinner with Curt's side of the family the Saturday before Easter. We had a great bbq dinner with baked beans, corn on the cob, chips, and strawberry shortcake. It was delicious. After dinner, the kids dyed Easter eggs.
