Sweet Daddy Time

The kids got to hang with Jason last night while I went on a guys night out to the Purdue/Michigan game with Trent, Matt, Dad, Jeff Demerly and a buddy of Trent's from Monsanto. Such a great time -- if only Purdue could have hung on in those final minutes! Great game! Great company!

However, when I got home, I noticed that Em's nighlight was on pretty bright, so I went in there first...but no one was in her bed. Hmmm...I thought. Next to Colton's room to kiss him good night and again, no Colton. Hmmm....

When I went into my room, upon inspection I found this.
Sweet dreams
What a good daddy! Upon trying to cover Em up and sneak off to Colton's bed by myself, I noticed the kids rustling, and Colton about fell out of bed. So I picked him up and put him in his bed with me. He mumbled in his sleep..."Mom, who won?"  He really is a boy after my heart! :) He drifted right back to sleep and Em woke up so proud that she "sleeped in you bed all night long, with my Daddy"....adorable!

Can't get these kinds of nights back -- so occasionally we enjoy a slumber party with one, and sometimes two, of the kiddos! :)

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...
