Lambing 2009

The Schreurs girls with a baby lamb!
Grandpa and all of his helpers!
Brave Lexi!
Grandpa again.. they are waiting to follow in his footsteps!
Each year the grandkids come out to our place to have photos with grandpa and the baby lambs.. each year it seems we continue to add a new grandchild so the photos continue to get a little more difficult to get everyone looking at the same time! Grandpa truly enjoys having the grandkids out to help him.. and the kids love it too!

Update

Wow.. it has been over a month since I last blogged.. I am sorry about that. We have so many things going on right now..

House update:
We are getting so close. I had tons of friends and family help the week and weekend of the 14th and we got all the painting done.. thanks everyone.. My mom came for a few days and did some major cleaning in the new house as well as some fun decorating on the girls' walls, and this weekend we started tiling and my brother in law got most of the lights in and hung.. Wow..

Tiling should be done tomorrow night and then the grout.. So next will be baseboard, hanging doors, installing cabinets.. all before April 6th as that is when our carpet will be here...

I know the famous question is.. when do we get to move in.. I don't have an exact date, but truly hoping for the end of April first part of May.. but if we have to hold off just a little. that is ok as I know the end is in sight!

Work has been busy too.. The girls still loving school.. McKinley is almost finished with her kindergarten year and has done an excellent job.. Lexi is almost done with pre-school.. we had pre-school screening last week and she did very well; however we are thinking we'll still have her attend one more year of pre-school.. she is probably ready, but we want to make sure so she isn't struggling later in life.. And Avery.. she is in the terrible 2's.. one minute she melt's my heart and the next she is in timeout.. but I wouldn't change a thing.. And as most of you know.. we are now truly adjusting to the fact that we will be adding another little one to the family in September.. We are 13 weeks along so have a long road ahead, but the girls are very excited.. It will be an adjustment for all of us.. but God grants us what we can handle and we are very excited now for this little one to join our family!

Other then that.. Life is good at the Schreurs house.. I certainly hope all is well with everyone else.. hopefully soon I can get a few pictures posted of the accomplishments of the house.. soon I would love to have everyone stop by to see what I have waited for almost a year!
Take care everyone.. Spring is here.. let's hope we see it start to warm up and stay!
