The blossoms have come and are basically gone, and we are loving the beautiful spring weather! This month has been full of fun stuff. Flying kites, Big Hero 6, listening to Serial. We are excited about the news of our little girl coming in August, and Kas has begun setting some plans for making a blessing dress and some other baby girl items. We went and toured the Orem hospital to see if that is where we want the birth to happen. I think that was my first time in those doors since I arrived over 26 years ago.

Hinckley had his first Easter Egg hunting experience and really enjoyed it. He has also started started requesting "Sunbeam" and "Mission" - songs he is hearing in nursery. It is pretty cute when he says "Beam!" and sort of jumps.
Hinckley is putting words together like "open it!" (one of his favorites this week) and has started to imitate everything that he can. He loves to try and lead music at church, and continues to "hug" everything. He has also gained an interest in wrestling. He has become pretty good at pinning a charlie brown doll to the ground and has even engaged his two beloved blankets in some wrestling matches. He and I go for a hike on the Y trail or a run every evening and we both really enjoy that time together.
Another highlight this month was the LDS General Conference. School is done for me and I am getting ready for a new schedule doing lots of research. I made this video as a part of my final for Dad's Qualitative class. It is a little dramatic and mystical but I had a great experience making it.
Kassie performed in church on the flute with some singers, it was great! She and H have been enjoying trips to the park and library in the beautiful weather. The baby is starting to kick around and make herself known and things seem to be going well there. We are prepping for our move across town and are feeling really grateful we aren't making another move across the country. Kassie made this really cute reading poof for Hinckley which he loves.
Kas and I also enjoyed a short but fun date to DI this week, and guess what?! I saw my beloved eagle from Mexico. It must have been at DI for at least 5 years now. I know it is mine because I could see the crack where we glued the wing back on :)

Have you ever heard StoryCorps? It is one of my favorite YouTube channels and shows on NPR. Now you can do your very own StoryCorps interviews using their new app! I did an interview with my Mom and Grandpa H which you can find HERE. It was a really special experience for me, and I hope to have more like these!
This has been a great month and we are looking forward to May!
