Robbins Come to Visit
Ist week of April we had a suprise visit from my oldest sister Juliene and her sweet family - They came out to see the church history sites for their kids spring break vacation and we were lucky enough to be smack dab in the middle of all the places they would visit. So needless to say we were the Dittmer Bed and Breakfast and had such a blast having them here... just never enough hours in a day but we so loved having them here and will treasure those laughs and activities that we shared... loved having the many hands around... Juliene and Shayla held babies while the boys worked on projects in the yard!!! Talk about awesome!!! Wish we could have them around all the times ;) Also made time for a little Easter egg hunt...
March 1, 2010 - Ely Vaughn Dittmer
March 1st was a big day for us... we were blessed with another beautiful baby boy! We named him Ely Vaughn Dittmer. 8lbs. 21.5 inches long with a ton of black hair. That makes 3 babies in 3 1/2 years... Yikes! Wow! Lovely! Its sure been a learning curve for us and we are still adjusting but the lord knows what he is doing and we both have very large and supportive families. He had some trouble when he was first born with his lungs and had to be up in the NIC unit for the first 48 hrs but the lord answered our prayers and we were able to hold him, love him, and bring him home with us. We sure do love our little angel and are truely treasuring his presence in our family. Seeing how fast my other two have changed in such a short amount of time has made me stop and smell the roses (diapers :) and linger in the moments much more... babies are so precious....
We are now going to be back in the loop of internet communication - so embarrassed that our last blog was a week shy of a year ago... wow time flies and we have so much to update you all on - So MUCH has changed so I will do my best to play catch up with quick summaries - Sure have enjoyed watching all your blogs and look forward to chatting again - LOVE YOU ALL! Lets get started ;)

Evelynne Brielle Dittmer
Wow! Surprise! We decided to have Irish twins (two babies born in the same year with different birth-dates!) Evelynne Brielle Dittmer was born on July 16th 2008. She weighed 7lbs 15oz. and was 20 inches long. She has my blue eyes, (alot) of Brians dark hair, and Brigstons appetite ;) She is such a sweetie and so good natured! She is learning to ignore Brigston and his "love of his own voice" stage... (lots of random hollering and squealing). Grandma Barbara Schulthies was here for the delivery and Grampa Vaughn flew in a few days later. It was so neat to have them come and visit! We sure do love and miss them and really appreciate Grandma Joleen for her continuous love and support! Evie and Brigston are eleven months apart. Brigston really enjoys having another buddy to play with and so far doesn't seem to have a problem with sharing momma... He has figured out how to copy our behaviours around her and coos and smiles at her... he now says "hi" in a girlie voice that is hilarious! We will video it and put it on here. He also started walking on the evening of 9/11. Momma is soooo relieved! Now I am not stuck holding both of them at the same time as much ;) Yeah for independence!!! As of now, he has 4 teeth.
Home Sweet Home! 4-15-08
First off, big apology for not being able to update our blog till now (seven months later!) Gees where does the time go... a lot has happened in the last seven months so I will do a summary of the big items now and come back and fill in the blanks with more pictures later this week.
On tax day, April 15th, 2008, we moved to our dream farm with this really fun old farm house. It is the family heritage of the Dittmers where Grandma & Grampa Dittmer raised 11 children & farmed. One of these children was Mike, Brian(my husbands) dad. So its really neat that we are able to carry on the special family legacy of farming with such a strong history. The house has old school character but we love it and have enjoyed fixing it up little by little. Here you can also see one of our other changes... our family vehicle (2001 Dodge Durango). Had to upgrade from the ford and my toyota so we can fit all six of us (with two car seats ;) We got a steal of a deal and we really love it! I will explain more later this week.

The Boys Playing Housewife for the Evening!!!
Momma wasn't feeling the best so we sent her to bed and decided to make her some chicken soup and a grilled cheese sandwich! After we got her fed we thought we would clean up our mess! Who knew that a can of soup and some cheese could make such a mess! We got the dish towel out and made a dude rag for Brigs so he could get down and dirty! He thought the rinsing process was fun!!! We appreciate everything momma does for us so it was really nice to make her night special!!! We love you mommy!
