she lives...

Yes, people, the Dunford family is alive and doing very well. A combination of things kept me away from the blog. I'll try to keep up from now on, but I can't promise anything. Our little William ( Wil ) should be arriving around Mothers Day this year. It's gone by so fast and we're feeling a little unprepared. But, we're very excited. For some reason my nesting urge has been to redecorate my house and my bedroom instead of getting ready for Wil. I know, I'm terrible. Do you just become a little more selfish as you get older or is it because this is the 4th & Final?
I thought I'd back track a little because I haven't posted since before Christmas. But, the thought made me really tired. So, short version... Christmas was fun. Its been a great New Year. Briggs turned 10 yrs old in January. ( I feel so old! ) My niece, Alyssa, got married 3 weeks ago. ( I feel really old, did I mention that? )

Reagan got glasses. ( she looks so cute! )

Eryn finished pre-school!

Briggs has to get braces during Spring Break. ( he's a little nervous! ) and he's playing baseball this year. We got rid of my cute little Mazda 3 and bought a Yukon. ( all my spending $ goes to gas! But the kids love it. )
....and we're in the now! The kids just got home from school and are very excited for their 2 week Spring Break! HELP!!! Jens gets to go to San Jose this next week and I want to go with so badly, but I can't.....big tummy and all! So, I'll need to try to get creative with our time here, at home, with the kids.....what am I doing having another.....did I mention this one is IT!!!
WARNING: I just have to make everyone aware: during these last two months of pregnancy, and I'm sure for much more than a few months after the birth, I am going to seem very extreme! It's okay, I really am fine and happy, just very, very hormonal, emotional and a tad bit crazy!

Im so glad to see you are alive and well. I hope everything is going good with the baby and that you are feeling good. How is it that you get a 2 week spring break?? I hope these last months are good ones. 4 really isnt too much different than 3. Your big kids will be such good helpers. Good luck

I got the fabric from jcarolinecreative.com . The floral is by Alexander Henry and the dot is by Amy Butler. Happy fabric hunting. Do you know if the baby is a boy or girl? I hope all is going well.

At least you have the pregNANCY to blame. I find myself like that on a regular basis. Anyways it is good to hear from you and know you are doing well. My b-day lunch is coming-be prepared:)

Hi Kristin,

I miss you! Why can't you come to SJ with Jens? I need a break too, we can go shopping or something. Lets keep up with the blogging thing. I've been bad too. Love you!

You needed a bigger car :) I can't wait to call you.

Hey Kristin! Good to see a new post finally! Thanks for helping me make the hair bows a couple of weeks ago. Sorry I had to take off so quick. I have made a couple more since then but I am waiting for Heidi's hair to grow in some more. Now that I am on my feet again, let me know if you ever need help as the due date approches. What kind of redecorating are you doing? Hope to see you this week. Jens is lucky to get to travel so much. That is what I want to do!

You are back to blogging...yeah!!! I'm so excited for you having another boy...how fun! Glad you had good holidays and new years and all that. We'll be getting together for Nancy's birthday so I'll let you know when! I want to see your re-decorated house!

preschool was fun, I'm glad the girls could do it together! Glad to see your back in the blogging world! I'm finally caught up also - and am trying very hard to stay that way ;) It's much easier than playing catch up :D
