Being busy!

It has been along time since I have posted!  I have been very busy with kids starting school.  We are also remodeling the main floor in our home.  It is almost finished....can't wait until it's done.
I also haven't been feeling the greatest I am going to have another baby!  This little one will be here around March 2nd!   I am almost 20 weeks!  The baby is draining all my energy, and most days I need a little nap!

It's time!

So the baby kittens are ready to go to a good home.   I have four left!  They are just adorable!  My kids have loved these kittens and are sad for them to go..... but that was the deal at the beginning.  They are all female and are about 7 weeks old.  They are very playful and cuddly.  They like to be held like a baby. They all have pretty blue eyes, just like their mother.

I love her nose!  Half black and white, and it looks like she is wearing white socks.

This little one has the funniest markings.  Her feet are brown and her ears and nose are black.

My little princess!

Morgan is now 20 months but she acts like she is 10 years old.   She loves the trampoline and can get on and off by her self.  Every time she gets on she looks like this.... crazy hair girl.

Right now she really loves Tinker Bell,  Princess, and Caillou.  The other night she wore fairy wings all night she would not take them off.  By the end of the night she broke them.

Poor Gavin

Last week Gavin had a little cold.  In the day time it didn't bother him, but at night when he went to bed he would complain.   In his cute little brain he thinks that Band-Aids make everything feel better.  So he wanted a Band-Aid to make his nose feel better.  This little boy makes me laugh.

He also wanted one on his tummy.... he LOVES Band-aids!!!

When he feel asleep I went and took it off his nose.  The next morning he said that he felt better. It was a miracle!!! hahaha

Summer!

This summer has pretty much been friends, water, and fun!   All my kids want to do is play in the water and play with friends.  We are lucky because we have lots of friends on our street.

Zane tied all the bikes that we could find together and pulled the kids around. They said that they felt like they were in a parade.

We have some great neighbors!!!!

Summer also means Sunflowers.... I love Sunflowers and I try to plant them every year.

My garden is doing very good this year.  ( Last year not so good)

Our apples are coming on good!   We also have a peach tree that is doing great!!

Summer also means water!!  My kids can't get enough of it.  

It's sad but this is our biggest swimming pool we have.  It's for Morgan but the boys like to sit in it.

Give them the hose and they have a blast.  haha   

  They all have smiles on their faces.  Can't beat that!!!
Last picture I promise... here is Morgan sitting on the grass.  She knew I was taking her picture, so she was acting kind-of silly.  Little Girls!!

T-Ball

Brody just finished up the season playing T- Ball.  He loved it.  It was fun to bring a blanket, some treats and sit down and watch him play. 

He took the game serious and tried his best at each game.  His awesome grandpa got him some T-Ball gloves and his own bat.  Which he had at every game. 

The last game he got a little medal  

Best day ever!

We went up to the mountains today...... we all had so much fun.   We stopped at one of the picnic areas and had lunch.  Right next to the table was this log.  Brody came up to me and said " Wow!  Mom I have never seen a log before, it's really cool"  So I told him to go sit on it so I can take his picture.  He wouldn't because there was to many bugs on it.   So they just stood next to it.   I just thought it was funny that he would just get so excited over a BIG piece of wood.  

  We made our kids were jeans in case we went on a hike.  Little Morgan picked out her DRESS and wouldn't let us put a shirt underneath it.  I thought the bugs were going to eat her alive, but she was ok.

After lunch we headed up to " Cascade Springs"  It was just beautiful!!  Morgan was just a little  cranky... she didn't get her nap.  She wouldn't let us hold her while we were there..... but she did let her big brother hold her hand.

I just love how kids get so happy over simple things.  

They thought the fish in the water was so much fun to watch.  

Can you see the fish????

My boys were counting to see how many animals they saw.  We saw mostly little chipmunks, but Brody saw a black snake on the path.  He has been telling ever one that he saw a snake.

You can see it on Gavin's face how they loved to be there.  Now Zane and I are talking about maybe investing in a little trailer so that we can go camping.

On the way home Morgan took a nap, so we stopped at my Mom and Dads house and had some cake.   Morgan was her new self again.  ( It's amazing how naps affect children)

Love this girl!   She loves to be my " helper"  She helps me make my bed every day.  She loves it!   She helps me take the clothes out of the dryer....  she is always at my side trying to help!!
