Mommy and her girls!

I am sorry Lori and Sherry, BUT I love this pic and HAD to use it here!! It'll only be here a couple of weeks and Then I'll replace for Ky's birthday, I promise! :)

Happy Easter!!

Yes I am a day late and a dollar short but here are my easter pics from this year! This year was so much better that last year! Last year I had to go in for my d&c the day after Easter so that made for a very grim Easter. But enough of the sad stuff! Easter was very fun this year and we ate dinner at our house with my side of the family and I just realized I took no pictures! DANG IT!! We had fun though! Oh, Please excuse my sons with no shirts on. They refused to go put old shirts on! :( Stubborn boys!

We also got an Easter surprise and my neice Dana had her baby girl that day! I can't wait to meet her!!

Now doesn't Easter mean that Spring should be here? I am so sick of the wind and snow. I know the ranchers are grateful for the snow but I am really sick of it and am thinking about moving somewhere tropical!! PLEASE, RYAN?!!!!

4D ultrasound

Yesterday we had our big ultrasound appointment. It was very cool and we got to see the heart really, really good and the kidneys and bladder and all that fun stuff! :) We also got some really good pictures of the lil guy. We got to listen to the heart beat through the blood flow of the umbilical cord and it sounded AWESOME!! He weighs 1lb 11 oz and looks great! Now if he only had a name! LOL! He was sucking his thumb and had the hiccups so we got to watch him on screen hiccupping. He also kep opening and closing his mouth, drinking the amniotic fluid. It was very neat!

IT'S A BOY!!

So we know for sure we are getting a boy in June! We are excited but I have to say I was surprised by how upset Keaton was. He REALLY wanted a baby sister but he has adjusted to the idea now and is excited. I am still scared to buy stuff for the baby and I feel like I'll jinx myself! I am just praying all stays well with this little guy (who has yet to be named!) The 6th is our 4D ultrasound and I can't wait to post those pics! So hopefully I'll get it updated soon after the 6th!

MY NEW RIDE!!

YES!! I FINALLY got an expedition! I have been wanting one for....well for as long as I can remamber! :) We got it on Saturday the 12th and I am having a ball with it! It is a 2004 eddie bauer edition with leather, 6 disc changer, back seats that fold down flat automatically, moon roof, heated AND air conditioned seats.... hmmm let's see.... did I miss anything?! Can't think of anything else right now! So without further ado............here's my car!

Junior Jazz

Keaton had his 1st experience with jr. jazz this year and he had a lot of fun (after he got over the Lyman kids teasing him about being from Mtn View! When are going to grow up people?!!) Sorry I got a little upset after my son came home crying! I mean really, can't we all just get along! :) So here are some pics I got of him at his game. I missed the one of his shot! :(Of course!

He is #10 on the red team. He also has the ball in every pic just to help you find him.

Christmas

So Christmas was a lot of fun this year and the kids had a ball! It was a ton of fun to watch them open their gifts and we got to spend time with the fam and that's always good!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MASHAYLA!

I can't believe that my baby girl is 9 years old. Where has the time gone?! Her life in our house is half way over and in 9 years she will be in college! Time goes by so fast! HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY SWEET GIRL! I LOVE YOU!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

Yes I am a little slow! Please forgive me! :) Here are some Halloween pics of the kiddos! They had a lot of fun this year!

October is pregnancy and infant loss awareness month....

I just wanted to make you aware that October is pregnancy and infant loss awareness month. Please keep those who are dealing with this great loss in your thoughts and prayers. I just saw a saying that says it all: A tiny life doesn't equal a tiny loss. I am dealing with our loss of Lilly and somedays it's easier than others. I don't cry as much anymore but it is still hard to see a newborn or a pregnant woman. And woman that I know were due the same time as me, it's really hard to see their babies. My angel would be 6 weeks old now and I just can't believe it's been 6 months since she went home to her Father in Heaven. I know she is safe there and she does not have to be here suffering through all the trials we have here on earth. She was too perfect for that. But as I hear the children laughing upstairs my heart aches for them that they don't have her here to play with. But someday we will be together again. And we have to hold on to that thought and be strong and endure to the end.
My sister in law just had to suffer this great loss too on Thrusday, October 11th. I hope that I can be of some comfort to her. Please all who read this, think of her and pray for her. I love you Kimmy and I am here for you! Now our lil angels are in heaven waiting for us together and they now have a friend so it brings me comfort to know Lilly is not alone. Take care my sweet lil one and we'll be together soon! Mommy loves you! XOXO
