Melissa's visit and our trip to Washington

April was quite the busy month.

We flew Melissa out to Kentucky to watch our kiddos while Trevor and I went house hunting in Washington. We planned on taking Davis with us but Melis was so generous (or just plain crazy) enough to insist we leave Davis too (bless you Melissa).

She kept all 5 (that includes her little Avery) alive and happy while Trev and I searched through 40 HOMES in Richland and Kennewick.

We thought a week without kids would be a great vacation but we were so busy we didn't even make it to the hot tub in the hotel.

I'll share more of our experience in WA in another post.

We missed our kiddos and were happy to come home.

Melissa stayed another week and we got to do some crafting but mostly we chased these two around the house (and neighborhood) and counted the minutes until their nap times so we could pull the crafts out again or take a much needed nap ourselves.

Look at these cuties (oh, and look at my tulips... I love tulips).
Avery was so cute with Davis. She was his little mommy. She would call him "Baby" and pat his head or give him loves... Davis would push her away and look at her like she was crazy.

As always it was so nice to have Melissa and Avery here.

Melissa is due with baby #2 (another little girl) in August. I'm so excited for her and Jeff but 2 babies means a very busy momma so I fear our visits from Melissa every 6 months may be a thing of the past :( but we sure enjoyed it while it lasted.

Thanks for all your help...we love you Melis!
