We went to this great park (thanks to Trisha) near our house and it was amazing! They have ducks, a path around the lake, amazing play equipment. We have already been there 3 times. It is a lot of fun for our family! Colorado keeps giving us glimpses of spring and then it snows. The snow never stays long around here though.
Jeb swinging Blake in the air!
I don't know what is up with Blake's goofy face. Landen looks really thrilled. It was getting a little cold because the sun was going down for the evening.

Savannah was begging for more bread to feed the ducks. Of course, I am wearing a hat. It seems those are the only pictures I have of me (it was Saturday and we love to stay relaxed on Saturdays!). Blake's lower face is bright red from skiing earlier that day.
Savannah and the geese. She loves to say the word "cheese" with her smile so we get a cute "cheesy" smile
Blake kept running back and forth along these rocks trying to make sure every duck (and goose) got a piece. He was so concerned one would get left out.
Okay, I can still post about Valentine's Day because it is still February. These are my beautiful orchids and "purple flowers" my husband got for me. He is a very good at flower-giving throughout the year so I like it when he gets a little creative and colorful. These kept blooming throughout the week. Very pretty!
Blake, Savannah and I got to attend Landen's Valentine party at school.
Landen decorating a cookie for each of us. (He put on a lot of frosting!)
The kids showing love!
Landen and his friend. He decided since it was Valentine's day he would be a gentleman. He helped a couple of girls carry their heavy backpacks and he gave his teacher a special hug and "Happy Valentine's Day" wish. This is huge for him because he has always been very shy. He is really coming out of his shell this year (getting a little too confident!)
Savannah thinks her bros. are so funny!
Landen and his crazy friends (and Blake)! They were out playing in the cold and came in for some hot chocolate. They are really fun to listen to as they interpret and talk about life!
Landen has been learning about the moon in school. If you can't tell, I love it when my kids read to each other! Such a precious moment. Landen was reading a book about the moon and solar system to Blake, teaching him all the stuff he knows. We got the kids out of bed and watched the Lunar eclipse last week Landen was so excited!

Well, my dear friend, Maren lovingly informed me I needed to update my blog (thanks Mare!:)) . I guess it is definitely time. I will probably spend most of my time adding some recent pictures, but I did want to share some news with you. We are expecting Baby Number Four in September! We are very excited and a little scared. 4 seems like a lot but we are so grateful to be able to add another child to our family. I have been a little more sick this time and my clothes are getting tighter faster! Jeb thinks it is twins...Ha! I haven't been to the doctor yet. I figure I've done this a few times before and I can wait a little (I'm only 10 weeks along). Anyway, just wanted to share our exciting news with our friends. Take care!

Congratulations Bec! That's exciting news -- good luck with #4. I can't even imagine adding another because I barely manage the 3 I have! You and Jeb are great parents and I'm sure you'll be fine!
Congratulations! A new baby on the way is ALWAYS exciting news!
I hope you get feeling better soon.
Your kids are darling! I love all the pictures!
Congrats! I remember you having just one and you did it with such ease. I am sure adding one more to your bunch will just be more for you to love. You are a great mom. I wish Colorado was one of our choices for residency, it would have been nice to see you guys. Plus it sounds like you have a great time there.
Congratulations Becca! You are awesome! We still miss you guys and I think of you a lot when I go running remembering the good times we had!
I can't believe you make us wait to the absolute end of your blog to hear that you are PREGNANT!!! I'm completely flabbergasted that it is numero 4. Yes, I realize that's what comes after 3. But 3 is still a quaint little family (says the person with only 2), 4 is gigantic. Congratulations:):):) And thanks for updating your blog, beautiful kids deserve to be shone off a ton.
Congrats on the pregnancy!! How exciting, and a little scary at the same time. Hopefully you start feeling better, it's hard enough being sick and then add on taking care of 3 kids. Colorado looks like a fun place to live and your kids are so cute! I wish we didn't have to buddle up with hats, mittens, coats, and boots anymore this year:)
I am so excited for you guys. Congrats on number 4. I am still trying to convince Mike that there is one more baby for us. I have time though. Your other kids are getting so big. That park looks really fun.
Wow! How exciting! Maren called me and told me to check your blog, and so I was wondering when I got on here if that was the news...Congratulations! I am jealous you can just decide to have a kid and it comes. You are such a great mom. I can't imagine four but for you, it will be a breeze. I want to come visit...your kids are growing up too fast. Looks like a lot of fun at your house!
Wow!!! Congratualtions, that is very exciting, but I can see why you are nervous, 4 sounds like huge number when you are talking children, what I am talking about 3 sounds gigantic to me, I can barely handle my 2. But you are so great with your kids, I am sure it will seem like nothing once that little one is here. Keep us posted, we love seeing pics of your darling family.
congratulations! I'm so excited for you! Savannah seems so old! Hope you're feeling better. call if you need a break!

Hey Bec! I tagged you...check out my blog for details.
How wonderful! You are brave to embark on the big #4, but if anyone can handle it you can. You are an amazing mother & friend!
Okay, it's me, Jylaire (Cooper). I can't believe I found your blog! It's been such a long time! You have such a beautiful family! You're having #4? I thought that 2 was a lot. Please keep in touch! I'd love to hear from you!

Okay, so since the last time you blogged, you have probably found out at the very least if you are having twins or not. Maybe you even have found out if you're having a boy or girl:) What is going on?
