Fun in the Sun!

It has been such good weather lately! I am not looking forward to the heat, so I am enjoying the warm weather now! I watched Hannas kids for her while she went to a wedding, so I decided to spend the day outside in the water. The kids all had a blast and the it was such a nice day!!
They would swim for a long time and then they would lay on the warm side walk to get warm.
It also saved me from using a bunch of towels :)


It was a fun day and even though I am not looking forward to the heat, I am looking forward to all the fun summer activities!!

My Babies

I have all ready said that I can't wait to see our new baby in a few months and I have had this fear that we have had 4 cute babies, can we do it again? I got out pictures of all of them when they were born and it brings back so many memories. I have loved each one instantly and my mother bear instincts kick in right away....which I think is pretty normal :) None of our babies have looked alike. They all have had their own look. I have no idea what this next one will look like, but I am sure we will think she is beautiful! I have thought that about all the rest of them, so I am sure it will be the same this time around. These pictures are not the greatest, but they are all I have. They were all such perfect, beautiful babies(can you tell I'm the mom :) I just wish I had better pictures. I love them all so much and am so grateful to be their mom!

Blessings

Over the last few weeks I have experienced a few things, that I have never experienced before. I stared having contractions in the middle of the night and didn't really know what to think of it, but it made me nervous because I have 3 months left. I was not sure if I should go ot the doctor or not, but after a few people told me I should, I did. They told me to come in and get checked out. I was feeling kinda dumb going in there, because I am not a person who panics over things, but I felt like I needed to get checked out. Well come to find out, I had a really bad bladder infection. It can cause you to have contractions, which I did not know. I also tested positive for the hormone your body makes when you only have 2 weeks left and your getting ready to have a baby. So they had to monitor me and make sure everything was OK. Everything did end up OK and I am so grateful! The baby is healthy and moves constantly! When they had me hooked up to the monitors, she kept kicking and we kept having to move the monitor to keep track of her. I can't wait to meet her! Just not yet :) I am thankful for being able to be a mother! We have waited a long time for this little one and we are so excited to have her join our family!

Baby Blessing

We went to Rebekahs blessing today. She looked so pretty in her little dress! There were alot of people there. It was fun to visit with everyone. It was a good day! We got the crazy idea to take pictures of all of us...........I am huge!! I didn't think I was that big until I looked at these pictures! I still have 3 months left......I am 2 times the size of Hanna! Next time I think I will make everyone stand in front of me :) or I think I will stick to DARK colors!!



I love my Grandma so much! It was so good to see her! I love this picture of my dad and her! Love you guys!~



Daniel lost his first tooth the other day. I can't believe he is old enough to loose teeth! I am not sure what Natalie and him are doing, but they are having fun!






Napping

The other day the kids were outside playing with the dogs and I saw Daniel in the chair with Maggy and just thought he was playing. I kept looking out there and he was in the same position, then all of the sudden I realized he was asleep! Both him and the dog were having a nap :) I thought it was so cute!
