Fun on a Friday

Lent has arrived, and that means that most Friday nights, the Stockment's will find a way to eat out in search of the best fish around. We first stopped at  TC's last night, but it was packed and we hadn't thought ahead to make reservations, so Jason guided us to the great town of Americus to Robert's. TASTY! We had a great meal and the kids were well behaved.

Perhaps they were good because we lured them with a trip to Jump it (formerly Monkey Joe's). The kids still love it...and well, so do Jason and I. We may stop going there once we have an "over-4 year old" -- because we are then no longer allowed on the slides! :) But as long as we're "assisting" an under 4 year old -- we'll continue to enjoy good times there. We'll just call it -- Feelin' like a kid again, Friday. Here's the proof that we were all having a good time.

 I love how Jason's all ready to barrell down this slide, and then he realizes kids other than our own are sneaking up on him. Fun. Ruined. :)
Em and Dad tackled the obstacle courses together, while Colton lead the way.

See the sign to the right of Jason's head: "No Adults on slide. NO EXCEPTIONS"....unless Emmalyn is your daughter and you are a protective Daddy trying to help her have a good time! :)

Get Well Soon, Grandpa Kent

 Here's the best way to share Dad's video. Thank you all so much for submitting the clips. This really made him smile (and say some funny things the first time we watched soon after anesthesia). I think it will be treasured company this evening in the hospital. Thank you for your prayers, your thoughts, for answering the phone calls and lifting Dad up. We appreciate all your love and support.  58E2238E-D2E3-4B38-9FF6-AE1E502ABD14.mp4

Two + Two + One more = FIVE

Yup, you read that right, by the end of July, the Stockment's will officially be a family of five. Jason and I learned in mid-November that we were expecting our third child and we were both overjoyed with the news. (More so than I thought Jason would be -- he wasn't convinced on having another (or should I say, not as convinced as I was), but once he saw that baby's heartbeating on the monitor at the docs office, he couldn't keep it a secret anymore!!) I convinced Jason to keep our news to immediate family, however, failed to remember that we have a VERY chatty 4 year old, and a 2 year old who repeats everything her big bro says! :) So, we told our families on a Tuesday evening (after our doc appointment that afternoon) and by Thursday, I think half of White County knew. If you attend or drop children off to attend Pam's daycare or Bright Beginnings Preschool, you were amongst the first to know! I had hoped for some elaborate scheme to tell both of our parents ...

Life's Beachy

What a whirlwind month March has been! From the baby reveal to birthday parties (Madi turning 3, Sawyer turning 2 and soon Brad & Debbie!), to Jason working weekend after weekend at his side job, to moving Matt & Sarah into their new home, to Jason getting a new job, to kindergarten round up, to preparing for Florida....whew! Yup, you read that right -- after 14 years with Bouma Betten, Jason is making a jump. He applied for a job with Monsanto in Remington, and was lucky enough to be offered the job just last week. I am so beyond proud of him -- he's not a resume/interview kind of guy, but he put his best foot forward and proved what a hard worker he is. He'll start there as a Seed Tech in mid-April and although it will mean big changes for him (and US!), it will be worth it. The benefits cannot be topped...vacation time, paid time off for sick leave, 401K, health -- all things he didn't have (or did have, but not great) in his current job. It will certainly be a...
