Time Flies!!!

Wow, I just realized it had been over two weeks since I had updated our blog. God forbid that I not keep you up to date on our lives. Last week was a bit crazy since we had been gone the entire week before down in Washington and Indianapolis visiting family and friends. It turned out to be a very eventful trip. As many of you know, Stuart and I are sports junkies. So, imagine our delight when our hometown Hatchets basketball team advanced to the State Finals while we were in Indiana and we were able to attend the game. It was a nail biter but in the end, class prevailed and our boys brought another state title back to Washington. This is the 3rd they've won since Stuart and I have known each other. Hatchet basketball was always great but has been amazing since we've had some kids named Zeller pass through the school. The same night that Washington won the state championship, Butler advanced to the Final Four in Indianapolis. We will always remember that Saturday night. Butler is playing tonight for the National Championship. Even Cameron has gotten into the spirit and asked if he could stay up tonight to watch the Bulldogs. He has a special love for them because when he was 4, I took him to his first college basketball game at Hinkle Fieldhouse and we were able to sit right on the floor. He LOVED the bulldog. I don't think he'll be able to stay up for the game tonight since it doesn't tip off until 10 but he will want an update as soon as he's awake in the morning.
Spring weather has arrived and we are all enjoying the sunshine. Noah has been battling this chronic cold and cough. We are starting to think that maybe he just has allergies. We're hoping that all of this clears up soon so we can all enjoy being outside. Cameron has started soccer practice and seems very excited for his games to start. His first one, barring any bad weather, will be this Saturday. This year he's on the yellow jackets and Stuart and I couldn't be happier that we're not the coaches. It's nice to see someone else try to keep the attention of a dozen 7 year old boys.
This past weekend we had some visitors from Indiana. One of my best friends and her husband and new baby boy came to visit. Clark, Carrie and AJ arrived on Friday and stayed until Saturday afternoon. It was so nice to have them here and show them our new house and neighborhood. Noah found AJ to be particularly interesting. It was funny to see Noah reacting to a tiny baby. It's hard to believe that Noah was that small just a few months ago.
Speaking of Noah, he's on the verge of crawling. He lunges forward from a seated position and gets on all 4's. He hasn't figured out how to get his legs under him yet but manages to pivot around on his belly. He's also pretty proficient at scooting on his bottom.
Yesterday we celebrated Easter with our new friends, the Metz's. Adam happens to be the pastor of our church. He and his wife Mary Beth have 3 beautiful children who Cameron loves to play with. We spent the afternoon out on their patio while the kids played. It was such a beautiful afternoon. A perfect Easter Sunday.
I will post pictures of all the latest festivities when I get a chance. Right now I have to go rescue a certain baby from his crib.
