Sisters

I got my mountain fix a couple weeks ago and boy did I need it.  Myles and I got on a plane, his first flight, and headed to Colorado Springs to see my sister. Of course, leaving the girls and Spencer was really hard for me and I had a lot of anxiousness about leaving. Ironically, we drove all the way to the airport on for my evening flight only to pull up to find it had been delayed almost 4 hours. Knowing that traveling with exhausted children is a terrible idea, I was able to get a flight for the next morning. As we were driving back home I couldn't believe the relief I felt about the flight change
and even though I was sad about missing a few things we had planned for my first morning there, I believed that it was all for the better. Myles was a dream child for the flight and security went well, since MCI is such a small airport. We packed a lot in during my short stay and as I knew it would, it went faster than I wanted. April is in full "nesting" mode and I got to see a clear picture of Baby Bear during her ultrasound. My vote is now for a girl and she looks a lot like April and even has at least one dimple! While we were there,
she treated me to a hair make-over by a good friend who does awesome things, I really needed it.
It is so much fun to be "moms" now and share this experience that is drawing us closer together. I wish we were in the same city for play-dates and babysitting swaps, but I can pray that someday we can share the same zip code. 
Baby Bear, at this point, will come sometime on the 27th of this month. We can't wait to come back to meet this little one!
Love ya sis, thanks for such a great time!

love you too! It was so wonderful to have you!! I pray for closer zip codes as well. Would be so wonderful to have play dates. I love this new stage of mommy and getting to have big sister to call with questions for entering into this new stage of life. I am loving that! I can't wait for the next visit! :)
