April is here!

April is here and we could not be more excited! 1)Easter Sunday! Paislyn is old enough this year to decorate eggs and go on egg hunts. It is going to be a lot of fun! 2) Deslie is coming to visit us for a few days the week after Easter. She has a conference in Salt Lake so she gets to spend some time with us! 3) the week after Deslie visits the whole Thomas family will be here for Tereza and Clayton's wedding. So we get two weeks full of family! I am just so happy to have them all here. 4) right now I am about 2 1/2 months away from having our baby girl!

We are getting anxious to welcome our little bundle of joy into our home. We have decided on the name Railee. But we have not decided how to spell it yet. There is so many ways that we could spell it. Railee, Raeley, Railey, Rayleigh Rayley. We just have to decided which we like better. Her full name will be Railee Anne Billman. Devin came up with this name, and I fell in love with it. I have always loved the name Riley, but it is getting to popular and gender neutral. Before we got married Devin always like the name Bailey, but I wasn't a big fan. So when Devin came up with this name I was so excited. Middle name is from both sides of our families. My mom and Deslie's middle name is Anne. My Grandma Holden's name starts with ANNEtte, Grandma Thomas's name was DeANNa and Devin's Grandma is named Ann. So we decided to go with Anne! The doctor mentioned he would be willing to induce me on the 16th of June, which would be on a Saturday. So I'm going to try my hardest to get him to induce me on the 14th. That way Devin can be home Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. My mom is going to be coming for a week once the baby comes as well, so that will be great.

Well for an update on our ever growing toddler. She has so much personality and so much attitude its hard keeping a straight face when your around her. She is so smart and picks up on things so easy. Devin ordered her a kitchen play set online, thinking we would wait for her birthday. But we got a little to excited, so we caved and set it up early. (haha her b-day is in August) She absolutely loves it and it keeps her so entertained. It will be nice to have once the baby comes, that is if she is still entertained by the whole thing. It was quite the project that we started on. Devin started working on it at 9, and then once I put Paislyn down at 9:30, I helped. We finished the project about 11:30. In the morning Paislyn saw it and her face lit up with excitement. It was like Christmas morning!
It is very hard to get any good pictures of this little one. She is always moving, jumping and dancing, that a good picture is hard to capture. I have to keep my camera on the sport setting just to get a few good pics in.
This little one loves to get dressed up and get her hair done. Of course with this obnoxious little one the style only last about an hour. She loves sitting in the chair by the mirror and watching me do her hair.

She started this new thing, where she loves to sit on the spare bed in her room and read. Which I love by the way, because she will sit for an hour or so reading books all by herself. Its like an extra nap time almost. YAY! She will sit with her blanket, the sheep GG gave her, and all her books and just read and read. She will crawl to the light and turn it on. Then go back and read, and then crawl to the light and turn if off. Then back to her spot to read. It keeps her so entertained! I LOVE IT!



Devin has a game on his I pod, where you try to throw paper into a garbage can. Paislyn loves this game! It is so much fun to watch her play!

Devin and I feel so blessed to be where we are! Devin loves his job, and of course I love being able to stay home with my crazy little princess. We have a really great ward, that we are enjoying. We have a wonderful little girl with another on the way, and we are so excited to see our family growing. I feel so blessed to have the husband and daughter that I do. I feel blessed and humbled to think that I get to be the mom to two wonderful girls. It is pretty overwhelming but I can't wait to see what life has to offer!
