The Burns Family Update!

Well....let's me give everyone an overview of the BIG events in our life.

Michael finished his Masters at OU in December. Making Olivia and I very proud. He worked so hard and we are glad to have him back. He hopes to work on a PhD in the future but for now he's enjoying a break.

Olivia is 17 months old and a ball of fun! She can say a ton of words and count to 5. She is proving to be quite a strong willed child, but I'm learning quickly how to help her "follow" the rules. It's been a trial and error process but we're both getting the hang of it. I never thought that I could love one little girl so much! Oh and we're working on several more teeth right now which is adding to our frustrations with discipline. I open to any suggestions out there!!!

Me, well I've just finished the first tri-mester of our second pregnancy! We are super excited and hope to introduce this one to the world around September 11th, 18 days before Olivia's second birthday. Crazy!!! I'm also open to any tips on preparing to stay home with two children. Oh, and tips on how to have them share a room, that part just sounds so tricky to me, but hey I'm sure it's been done by many a parents...right?!?!?

Lots of love to our friends and family out there! I hope to try and keep this updated as much as possible...at least more frequently than I have in the past. ;)

Let's catch up!

Here are a few more recent photos of Olivia. She's grown quite a bit since my last posting and so have I!!!
