July Fun

Well, we did go to family camp and did have a great time. I love being a mom and enjoyed spending hours each day with my family. We also got to see some amazing fireworks. They had a private showing for Grace--talk about so nice. Walk out of your living quarters, across the field and sit down to enjoy the show. No traffic, No crowds...I wish I could say No mosquitos but alas there were. We lathered up in bug spray and were fine though!

We went to the beach today and I am attaching the video I took of Brody--okay so it is sideways, my bad. But it is still really cute.

Fun in the Snow

With only 4 days before we have Baby #3 the Pluth's decided to enjoy some of the March snow! It was perfect weather for building a snowman--Raegan chose to make buttons of lifesavers and thought that jelly beans would be good for the eyes. She let us know that if there were extras she would just eat them. Brody enjoyed the snow until his shoes fell off and he got drenched--oh well. Raegan also made her snow angel and thought that running around, chasing a daddy with snowballs was pretty great, even when they hit her.

A few things as of late:

Raegan - corrects me when I said we did something "yesterday" she says "no mommy we did that lasterday!", can identify 2/3 of the letters in the alphabet, LOVES anything with a princess on it and wearing her cowgirl boots, is praying out loud for meals and enjoying pre-school at Westwood. Raegan loves playing with her Easter bunny stickers too.

Brody - dances in circles, does the run waddle, got his first real shoes from Papa and Grandma Pluth this week, has 14 teeth and weighs a whopping 27 lbs!

Brad- Has hired an intern from North Carolina, named Jason, for 6 months, starting May 10th. He will be helping with the growing afterschool programs and hopefully busy group lessons this summer.

Well-enjoy the winter wonderland photos. Likely the last Pluth photos I will take before our next arrives. Check back for pictures of the new Pluth on Good Friday the 21st~ We are so blessed to have this baby on such a significant weekend for our Savior. May each of you have a wonderful and blessed Easter.

Big Sister Raegan's Comments

Well, Raegan and 3 1/2 has already figured everything out. Here has been her advise as of late:

Out of the mouths of babes-

1. When I was in bed and not feeling well she said "Mommy, just go to the doctor and get the baby taken out and you will be all better."

2. After asking about the baby in my tummy and telling her it is only 7 weeks away she says, "When the doctor takes out the baby we can put Brody back in."

3. In response to sharing with Brody, "He doesn't need this, it will give him a tummy ache. I will just eat it for him."

4. In naming Baby #3. If it's a girl she likes the name Megan (which is the name my sister gave her 4th daughter 2 weeks ago) and if it's a boy the name Brody. When I tell her we already have one Brody she says, "It's okay."

Those are just a few of the adorable things she has been saying lately...

As for baby news, looks like the delivery date will be either March 15 or the 21. We find out on Thursday at our appointment witht he surgeon.
