Speeidng through Spring!


Date nights are AMAZING!



Some of my favorite smiles are when Zane is in his car seat!



He LOVES cups! Any type, any place, any time!


It's been a busy month around the Nichols house! Mom got the pantry cleaned out, Dad brewed a batch of beer and built garden beds in the back yard and little started crawling and pulling up on EVERYTHING! We've had fun!

Zane is full speed ahead. He's been "toying" with crawling for a few weeks now, but this Monday he just put the pedal to the metal and hasn't slowed down. I found him standing up in his crib after his morning nap on Monday as well and he's been pulling up on EVERYTHING. We're trying to "child proof" our house, what a JOKE! Are you kidding me? Seriously, people really think this is possible? This little guy can find things I can't find! Speaking of. I've been on a "loosing streak" this month. I've lost my wallet, my wedding ring, earrings, and my mind all in a matter of 48 hours! Luckily, I'm married to a hero who's been able to locate everything but my brain so far! I'm just worried... How do you loose two major items in 48 hours? When I find my brain, I'll see if I can figure it out!

We hosted a play group this month with a group of mom's from our neighborhood. About 9 Mamma's with babies came over and played for a morning. It's really fun to watch all the kids (did I seriously just call my baby a kid? ;( (That's uncool) play with each other. They are already becoming such little people. Taking things, deciding what they want, when they want it, who they want it from.. It's so amazing!

Ok. So you might notice a business card with my name on it... I've started an Interior Decorating business with one of my dearest friends and my old co-worker, Montana Lee. We had a client approach us in December and we've been chasing a snow ball down hill ever sense. We're learning a LOT and we're really enjoying working together. God's been really faithful to help us and has given us lots of direction and vision along the way. Montana is a wonderful partner and she's lovingly pushing me outside my "comfort zone" and into my potential. She's encouraging and has been so supportive as I'm fumbling through the journey to find a healthy balance between work and mom.. what a hard balance to find! Overall, I'm really enjoying being able to be back in "design" again! I love making houses become home and it's a dream come true to be able to do work I love, with someone I love and respect all while being a Mom! God's so very good to me!

Zane is going to spend his first "overnight" with Gram and Papa this weekend and Dave and I are going to slip out for an evening and enjoy a little of the SXSW music scene! Thank you Gram and Papa! What a blessing Zane has two sets of AMAZING grandparents to love and help us raise him up to be a Godly young man.

Love to you all! We hope your family is enjoying the Spring Break holiday!

Love,
The Nichols Family
