Our baby Boy!

Well I am super excited to announce that we will be having baby boy #3 in November.. I am so greatly anticipating meeting this little guy.. and I am very excited that I will be a Mama to three boys!!!!

There was no question today when we looked at the ultrasound.. I said it before the doctor could even get it out.. it was there for everyone to see.. then the doctor looked at me and said his famous line... "If I am wrong I will personally come to your house and paint your room from blue to pink".. and there it was final.. its a boy!!!!!!

What I am most excited about is Mark & I have finally agreed on a name.. meet Trevor William Lensing.. He is going to be amazing.. I just know!!!

Tuesday is the day...

That we find out for sure what we are having.. as of right now our doctor is 70% sure its a boy.. but at 12wks.. you never know if he had it right.. but at 16wks {can't believe I am already that far along!!!} he should see if there really is a little stem on this apple or not!

So we have gone over and over and over names.. it was easy to name Garrett.. pretty easy to name Drew, but for some reason this one is hard.. and we are still not sure if we are 100% certain of the name.. but Tuesday may be our deciding factor.. once Mark and I know for sure its a boy.. it will be easier to figure that out.. there is a front runner name.. but I am not giving it up just yet.

The names that we have gone over and over that aren't winners is David.. Mark loves that name.. I think its just to everyday.. I really like Seth, but Mark doesn't think its strong enough.. the other day Drew said "Mommy I know what we should name the baby" and I asked him what he thought.. and he said "Kasey Kahne like the race car driver.. cause I got his car for my birthday"

So the name might not be totally decided yet, but I am getting my energy back finally!!! So that is great news.. I have already started on getting the office cleaned out and baby ready.. we want to paint the room by August.. so we can start decorating... there is still a lot to do to prepare.. so I am sure I will be working on this slowly throughout the summer!

I am just still beside my self excited to see who this little one is.. its seriously such a blessing to have kiddos!!! The boys are finally at the stage where they talk and play together.. Drew gets Garrett's instructions and follows along with his plan {bossy older brother!!!} & Drew is just happy to be playing with him.. I am looking forward to seeing all three of my kiddos interact together.. there is nothing like sibling friendship!!!

Tanaka Farms {Drew}

Drew's class took their field trip to Tanaka Farms.. this trip is always my favorite.. I love to taste all the fresh veggies and strawberries.. I knew Drew would have a blast on this field trip since he likes to try new things.. he tried every veggie even the maui onion... I was so surprised.. but he did and he like it all! When it came time to pick strawberries he was definitely more about eating them then taking some home!!!! It was great to have this special date with my little man! I love having fun adventures with him!!!!

Centennial Farm

Garrett's Kindergarten class took a field trip to Centennial Farms in April... I was lucky enough to be one of the parents that was able to make it.. I am so glad I was able to.. his little face when we loaded up the bus was priceless.. it was his first trip on a bus.. and I was happy to be there with him!!! Not to mention being able to spend the day at Centennial Farms too.. that was really neat! The classes were split up so we had our own tour guide to take us around the farm and explain different things... we saw veggies.. plants.. bees.. goats.. cows.. we planted a vegetable... and the best part was holding baby chicks!!!

Luke

Oh my goodness.. where to begin.. we have been up to so much since the last time I posted.. but the biggest most important thing to report.. is we went to see baby Luke in Missouri.. what a true blessing he is!!! Such a sweet little guy and my boys LOVED him.. Drew was all about the baby.. wanting to hold him and kiss him all the time.. Garrett was great.. he was an older more mature cousin that could hold Luke with no problems.. really made me so happy to see how they were with him.. it was an inside glimpse of what is to come for us here in the fall!

Our trip was pretty interesting.. as we were flying in the St. Louis weather map was completely red with forecasted tornadoes on the way.. we landed with no issues.. headed out to Troy just fine.. and a tornado hit St. Louis airport and took out our Frontier terminal that evening.. it was a seriously good timing on our part.. to fly in and out when we did.. cause although there was a lot of destruction.. our flight plans were not affected at all since our departing flight wasn't until Monday.

We had a great time there.. we enjoyed all our Easter festivities there.. church.. coloring eggs.. we went to see the movie Hop.. the boys loved it! The best part of the trip was celebrating Luke's 1st Easter with him. Its so special to share a day like that with family when they live so far away!

I got this shot of the boys on our way out on Monday morning.. I am so glad I did.. I can't wait to blow this one up and proudly display our newest Lensing family addition.. we love you Luke!
