Happy St. Patrick’s Day everyone. I can’t believe it’s been almost a year since I’ve updated this website – I’m terribly sorry for the slacker on my part! But please know that it’s not for lack of wanting to keep you informed, but rather being super busy taking care of 3 children – and being pregnant again. Yep – if you hadn’t heard yet, I’m pregnant again. I found out when Bianca was 3 months old – I’m now 6 months along (and Bianca is 9 months old). I’m due June 26th, but we’re going to induce me early – the first week of June (which will put me at 37 weeks). It is going to be another girl – Addison Jennifer Nielsen. 1 boy and 3 girls, do you feel sorry for Rob and Damian?

For those that haven’t heard, Rob left for Iraq at the beginning of February, and is supposed to be there probably until September. We miss him terribly, but we are so very proud of him for serving his country and the sacrifices he makes to ensure our freedom!

Damian will turn 5 next month, Kadence 3. Where does the time go? It truly flies when you’re having fun. They are both doing excellent in school, learning lots and really blossoming into very smart little people. They love having Bianca around, and they are excited about Addison joining the “zoo” in a few months.

My mom has moved out here with us to help me while Rob is away, and the kids are getting to know her and having a great time with her. We are certainly adjusting to alot of changes over here, Rachel and Casey also moved out – as they are awaiting orders to Japan, so the kids have seen alot going on in the last month.

Unfortunately I have no new pictures for today – as I have misplaced my card from my camera, but as soon as I find it I promise to get the website updated with new pics. You won’t believe how much the kids have grown!

Until next time…
