Josiah had to drive the bus for a field trip yesterday to Busch Gardens, so we decided to meet him up there for a few hours. The girls had a blast! It was the first time we hae visited since the new Sesame Street part opened.

CONGRATULATIONS, ESTHER! 1ST PLACE!
On Saturday, Esther had her final meet of the season in Lakeland. She won three second place medals and tied for third. Best of all, she took first place for her age group overall (all four events combined). We are so proud of our little gymnast! This was her best meet yet.
We are hoping that after her evaluation in a few weeks, she will move up to Level 3!

Esther's Spring Fling Gymnastics Meet
Here are some pics of Esther's gym meet a few weeks ago. I'm a little behind in updating as things have been crazy here. My uncle passed away last week and Lydia made a quick trip up to Indiana for the funeral.
At this meet, our girls won first place for our gym...the trophy was taller than they are. They were so proud!

Wow! Am I good!
Here's an update on what's going on with us lately:
Well, I have moved into the year 2010 finally. I thought I was doing good having a blog, but now I'm really cool! I have a Facebook thingy too! It is so cool seeing pictures of some of my friends from years ago. Technology, I tell ya! What will they think of next.
For our family out there...Esther has her final gymnastics meet of the season on Saturday morning at the Lakeland Center at 9am. If you're interested in coming to see our future Olympian, gimme a call.
Hannah is doing really great at going "tinkle-potty"! We are yet to master the poopies though. I read in one of my training books to try hosing her off outside after pooping in her pants, in hopes that will discourage her from doing it again. Josiah tried it last night but no luck though! We're getting there slow but sure.
Lydia is doing awesome! She is still nursing every three hours during the day, but sleeping about 8 hours at night. She is 11 weeks now and in four days can start going to the "kids club" at the gym! I am so excited!!!! I have to say that I am a little obsessed with exercise these days.
Josiah's ribs are healing wonderfully from his smack down a few weeks ago. He is able do quite a bit now without being in terrible pain.
I am just trying to keep up with my three little ladies. They keep me busy all day long (notice this posting is long after bedtime)! I am trying really hard to get to my pre-Lydia weight before the end of the summer and am working hard at the gym to accomplish this goal. I am taking a Bootcamp class two nights a week and have already lost two pounds in the first week!
I hope you all are doing as well as us! We are blessed!

My Flower Gardens
I have just finished my flower gardens. I paid my brother-in-law to help me spread the 40 bags of mulch, which I highly recommend! It was back-breaking work. I am so glad to have it all done! It looks really pretty!

A Back Walkover
Esther is finally able to do a back walkover. I am so proud of her! She's really been practicing hard!!!
Happy Resurrection Sunday!
We had a wonderful Easter Sunday! After church we went to Buddy Freddy's for a breakfast buffet. The best thing was that we got there about 20 minutes before they switched it to a lunch buffet so we got a "two-fer". Hope you had a great day celebrating the Resurrection of Jesus!!!
Lydia loves to smile
Here are some pics of Lydia that I took the other day while she hung out with daddy in bed. That's about the only place Josiah's been the last two days.
Baseball Adventure
This is a picture of Josiah's baseball team that came over the other night after their game. This was taken right before "The Great Fall of Josiah". As many of you know, in the past, Josiah was pretty much undefeated in his wrestling matches. Well, I have to report that Thursday night he was taken down by a 7th grader! He was wrestling one of the older kids on his team, when a younger one jumped on his back. He tried to "body slam" Colby, the 7th greader, and landed on his ribs.
After passing out once while trying to get up, we decided to take him to the ER and didn't get home until 5am. What a night, and all on the first day of Spring break! Mr. Winter will never live this one down!!
