Interview with Em - Take Two

Remember a few posts back, where I tried asking Emmalyn the same questions I asked Colton, only, she answered basically with the word "apples" for every question? If you keep up with us on Facebook, you also saw this post, referring to Em's current state of "diva-ness".
Case in point.
 Well, enjoy this video, where we get to hear Em's sweet voice, see her working her "diva-ness" in full force and hear her incredibly sweet answers (even though Big Brother tries to interrupt a time or two).

 As well, Diva herself has been chatting up a storm. Here's a few things we've heard her say lately...

 -- Me. Monkey. Mommy. Pig. (Followed by a fit of giggles, because she knows she's being ornery!)

-- Dat boy. Daddy's Deer. (She found Kid the Elf perched on Dad's buck mount the other morning and was awfully concerned about why that boy was on Daddy's deer!)

-- Be NICE Col-tawn - we hear this alot, when she's not getting her way!

-- We still have to wait until the end of the sentence to know if she's wanting something or not wanting something. We ate Broccoli and Cheese soup the other night and Em said, "Me like ham. Me like bawcoli, NO!"

-- Me no get in tub-le. Bubby tub-le. -- every day. Without fail. As I load the kids into the van and ask how their day was at Pam's.

-- Gindma Dacki. Papaw Bad. Papaw Keeent. Memaw Haw. (Took my mom by complete surprise that she was dubbed Grandma Hall! :)

Sweet Em -- you're growing up much too fast! Seems like just yesterday we were piddling around on Memorial Day weekend, waiting for you to make your grand entrance into this world. Love you!

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...
