Ready Or Not . . .

Here another one comes.
Yes, the stork is a frequent flyer around here. Much to Steve and my surprise we discovered a month or so ago that we are pregnant AGAIN! We're not sure about a due date, but I'm guessing around the end of March, or first of April. To save you all the calculating trouble, that will make Sienna and this baby approximately 13 1/2 months apart and 4 kids under the age of six. (Bronsen turns 6 the first part of April.) Wow, our life is never dull.
We weren't going to spread the news yet, but I figured I was safe telling Nate because he's on a mission. No, he told Sagan with no word about it being a secret, so she of course told her family, and from there. . . let's just say it's a small town. So anyway, I decided I'd better officially get the word out and we all know that is via blogging.
Steve and I are currently very overwhelmed with having one more thing on our plate, but are starting to get very excited about having another one. We'll take our blessings as they come. It will be a lot of fun for Sienna to have a sibling so close in age. Steve keeps telling me this one must have just been meant to come to us right now.

I caught Parker singing a song to Sienna today. The first of the song was about how I wouldn't let him have the gun I bought at the dollar store until he earns it. Then this verse followed. Oh, this child of mine! What do I do with him?

Sorry that I couldn't flip the movie. I just grabbed my regular camera to capture the moment and didn't realize that I wouldn't be able to rotate the video.

Random Things!  

Sunday, July 26, 2009

As everybody knows I haven't kept up to well on the blog lately. Here are a few random pictures. I've got to keep up a little. The first is of the kids trying to keep cool. I saw Parker laying down in the gutter because there was just a little bit of water there. By the time I got the camera they were all the way down the street "fishing" in the drain system. The second is one that I took just before we got family pictures. I thought it was kind of cute!

4th Of July  

We had a really great 4th of July this year. We ended up going to the parade, then Steve went to play volleyball. My dad talked Bailey, Trent and me into playing on a team with some of our cousin's fiance. We had a great time even if we were in the B bracket.
I really loved the fireworks this year. I love the chance to cuddle up with all the kids.
I was so ready for this BBQ after a very long day of volleyball.

There was a rain and wind storm that hit just as we were packing up all of the stuff from volleyball. We were in the middle of taking down the shade tent. Everybody got inside until the rain passed. It was chaos! She wasn't very happy!
At the parade!

Camping In June  

Sunday, July 5, 2009

We went camping a couple of weekends in a row back in June. The first weekend (these pictures are in reverse order) was just us. It was a lot of fun though. We went up by drywash where we could fish and ride the 4 wheelers and play baseball. I just love camping so much. I go through baby wipes by the ton, but it's well worth it.
The next weekend we went with all of my family up by Foy Lake. It was sssoooo wet and rainy, but I think it still turned out to be a really fun campout. My mom was really wanting everyone to do something "one last time" before Nate left, so this was it.


This picture is amazing because Parker and Bryn are usually fighting.

The kids were all about the 4-Wheelers.


That huge mud bog behind Bronsen was a lot of fun.



You had might as well enjoy it!

Parker was so proud of his fish. He just had to show his dog Moki!
I'm so glad they've started stocking fish in Dry Wash. We love to go there because you feel like you're in the mountains, but only 15-20 minutes from home.

Mom caught the biggest. Daddy caught none, so he went back the next day just so that I would stop teasing him.

This was one of the few times Sienna wasn't wollering around in the dirt.

Summer Days  

Wednesday, June 24, 2009


Last week the boys caught their first toad of the season. They were so excited. We built a little home for it for the morning and then reluctantly let it go in the afternoon. Since then we have found other toads, but luckily they were a little less boy-handled than this one. Isn't that what toads were created for anyway?
