Some fun pictures!















Our day started around 5:30am with Emma coming in
and trying to wake us up and asked if
"they"
could open up Alison's presents!
(Emma was alone!)
We told her to go back to bed and then Alison came in around 6am.
Told her to go back to bed!
We finally woke up when Leah came in and wanted to
open presents, and wanted chocolate milk!
(Leah will NOT stop asking in the morning until you get her
chocolate milk!)
So after Natalie's diaper was changed and Leah had her chocolate milk,
Alison, with some helpers, opened up her presents.
I didn't get her any toys this year. She never really told me what
she wanted for her birthday so I was not going to get her more toys!
(I'm so tired of toys!)
She got some clothes, a movie and crafts!
After presents were opened we ate breakfast and took our time getting ready for the day.
We had lunch and then went to the movies.
The birthday girl wanted to see
Mr. Popper's Penguins.
So off to the movies...all 6 of us!
THAT IS THE LAST TIME I TAKE ANY KID AGE 4 AND UNDER TO THE MOVIES!
I really thought Leah would like the movies and stay in the whole time.
I knew Natalie wouldn't last the whole movie but I was okay with taking her out....
well 5-10 minutes into the movie I was out with Natalie....
10 minutes later Leah came out!!!!
So I really don't know if it was a good movie or not!
The older girls talked a little bit about it and Ryan said it was ok!
After all that fun we went and had some ice cream.
Then...we went to the mall to kill time and Alison had some birthday money
she wanted to spend. About an hour of walking the mall with
two crying babies...it was time to go home!

Alison had a fun day! I can't believe she's 7 years old!
Time flies by so fast!

We love you Alison and look forward to Many Years to Come!

19 weeks


I've been in the "cute" pregnancy stage from where I'm
looking...but when I look in the mirror...
I'm getting BIG!!!
I'm carrying her a lot lower then my others.
(It's kinda hard to see in this picture.)
I've been feeling a lot of little kicks and that's the BEST feeling in the world!
My next appointment is next Tuesday and I can't wait to see her again!

While Ryan was doing some overtime at the hospital,
the ambulance brought in someone that was drunk and had passed out.
This person was dirty and while he was passed out he
had an "accident" so Ryan was
going on and on how bad it stunk!
He said everyone was wearing mask cause their were flies all around this guy!
If you know Ryan he's not the best in hospitals!
He said he was close to passing out!

We parked right by the Peacocks and they were loud!


Leah making funny faces!
Alison was scared of the Peacocks and while we were putting the girls
into the stroller Alison hopped into the van and shut the door!
Ryan had to drag her out! It was pretty funny!


I couldn't believe how fast the river was going!


My Hottie!


"Can I take this home mom?"

Emma checking stuff off her list!



(Ok these pictures are not coming up as I am wanting them too.)
Last week for some fun,
we went on a
Scavenger Hunt at Hart Park!
Ryan wrote up a list of things for them to put in a baggie
and stuff for them to look for!
I forgot my camera so the pictures are from my phone,
which all that I took, didn't come out!
We had fun!

Leah is Potty Trained!





Leah has done a GREAT job with potty training!
She hates wearing panties and always ask for her
"efalent" diaper. But I'll say no you're a big girl and she'll smile!
The first couple days was fun! She was practically sitting on the
toilet or her potty seat all day! And she would go but Very little
and a minute later she would have to go again!
She has learned to hold it!
My next step is putting her On the toilet!
Cleaning this potty training seat is a pain and gross!

Good Job Leah!

Here we go!! Now's the time I start getting BIG!!!!
16 Weeks

Do you ever have those days where nothing makes
since and you wonder why? I'm having one of those today.
Today is 13 years from my accident.
While I was in the shower this morning I had my crying moment!
Why?
Why not me instead of a friend and someones Husband and Father?
I still to this day have no idea what happened and I know that is a blessing.
At the end of
these types of days I remember ALL my blessings.

I have a Wonderful Husband that loves me and supports me in
everything I do.
We have 4 Beautiful Healthy girls and 1 on the way.
I have an AWESOME and LOVING family!
I have Excellent Friends that I can turn to whenever I need them.
And Most of all I'm thankful for the Gospel in my life!

I have many more Blessings and my list can go on and on.
I know I was put in that situation 13 years ago for a reason.
I really shouldn't ask myself why and
just think of all my
wonderful blessings.

Sorry for the rambling...it feels good to get it out :)



Emma told me she played a lot by this tree and wanted a picture.
So Cute!





Emma and Mrs. Gares


Today was Emma's Kindergarten Graduation.
Emma's class along with the other morning Kinder classes had
a performance for us and then the teachers passed out
their certificates. The songs we're pretty cute and Emma
did a Great job.
