Let the Maddnes Begin...

The Chapman household is a flutter! I am inching closer to graduation and so I've been busy with end of the semester projects and tests and stuff in general. Shane is busy with work as this is the start of his "busy time". Even Macabean is getting in on the action checking out the birdies that come with springtime!

Bean chirping at the birdies... er, chirping at me telling me to stop taking my picture and help him get at the birdies!

Yesterday, I took my Certified Health Education Specialist (CHES) exam. It's an optional certification that I opted to sit for. I should get the results in about 8 weeks. It was a tougher exam than I expected so I really hope I passed! Shane was a great cheerleader and support and I am so thankful he is so tolerant of all my school related craziness!

Today, we decided to take a little break from everything and take a little road trip up to visit our friends Jenn and Jon and their new baby, Connor. He's only 6 days old and soo tiny and newborn and of course very snuggly! It was nice to hang out, relax, and enjoy friends.
On our way out the door to see the new family!

Baby Connor awake and getting snuggles from Aunt Erika!

The hat I whipped up for Connor. It's the same yarn from Baby Anderson's blanket.

In the next few weeks I have a work trip to Virgina/DC area, graduation, Woods Reunion, our 5th wedding anniversary, and the nine inch nails concert with some work peppered in there! Oh, and David, Denise, and the kiddo's are moving back to the states!!!! We are so blessed and excited and ready to welcome spring!

... and your weekly dose of Macabean... enjoying the sun!
