Issac loves his tractor!

Out with Bryan checking calves


Issac in his favorite outfit. He's discovering his toes, and loves to have them in his mouth.


Thought I'd better add some pictures before Issac changes too much. We have had a good spring, and he continues to grow and make new discoveries every day. He likes to roll all around the living room, I'm sure he'll be crawling in no time. He babbles more too, and laughs a lot. He's eating cereals, fruits, and veggies (only if they are finely pureed, he's still pretty picky!) We are so blessed to have such a happy baby!

Bryan is glad to have only 15 cows left in the calving lot! We'll be able to sleep through the night again soon without him getting up to check for new calves at 2 am. He's looking forward to spring, and getting ready to get out in the fields and start farming. We still have a little snow, and lots of mud, though. He's also getting antsy to get the Trans Am out of storage and running for the summer. This coming weekend will be busy for us all with Bryan's birthday, branding, Easter, and Issac's baptism.

Sarah is in the process of transitioning to a new job. I applied for a position in Lewistown in OB-delivering babies! I will start working there part-time nights in May. OB is an area that I really enjoyed in nursing school, and this is the first opportunity I have had to work in that area. I am very excited, and don't mind working nights since I'll get to see Issac more during the day. I plan to work a few shifts a month in Harlowton too, to keep that good relationship open. I will really miss the other nurses, doctors, and patients there.
The ribs are finally healed from my run-in with the cow, so hopefully we won't have any more rodeos in the near future!
We continue to pray for our neighbors, the Olson family, who lost Ken in a ranching accident a few weeks ago. And the Heils, where Eli is on the road to recovery from an infection that caused his kidneys to shut down. You all are in our thoughts and prayers!

Happy Easter, and happy spring to all!

I wish we were closer I would come branding, Bday Party and Issacs Baptisim, sounds like fun and busy. We have a cold front going through so it finally cooled down down here. No moisture so Im irrigating again. Will cut my oats first or middle of May. Megan going to Pheonix to a pottery convention then to Columbia Falls to see the kids. Take care of each other and love each other like theres no tomorrow. Megan & Gary
