Oops!

I realized that I never put a picture up of Laura's chair. So here it is!

Visiting with Family and Future Home of the Bakers'

What's up amigos? Not much here with the Baker's! We are still enjoying a visit with my middle sister who drove up here from Louisiana with two girls - Alaina (4 1/2 yrs. old) and Kendall (4 months). It's been almost a year since we have seen them so it's nice to be able to finally spend some time with them.

Big Ron is still studying for his test. Doomsday is June 18th (I think) so he's been spending every waking moment for studying. Little Ron and I try to squeeze some time out of him but it's been tough :)

Lil' Ron is getting bigger as we speak! He's gained a whole pound and a half (now we're up to 17 pounds) since his 12 month check-up which is great! We switched him over to whole milk instead of formula and he is loving it! He is constantly handing us his sippy cup to get him more milk. By the way, he now has a new move that Big Ron likes to call the "reverse grip." He can flip that sippy cup like no other baby in order to get that milk. I'll have to take a picture sometime and post it, it's hilarious!

We are in the process of building our house. I am posting pics of the vacant site. They are supposed to start digging sometime this week. It is in Savoy, IL and looks to be done by September 29th. We are building with Signature Homes in Champaign (http://www.signaturehomes.ws/). You can go to their website and then "Schedule Updates" to see the progress of our house. Our address is 315 Preston St. Ron and I are super excited to start the whole process. We met with Amy, a really nice young woman on Saturday and picked out fireplaces, trim, knobs, hinges, etc. We have another meeting this Saturday to pick out cabinets. I am sure this will be trying on our relationship but I think we are ready to try it. If we can get through this whole nurse anesthesia school, we can just about get through anything!
