How BIG is it gonna get?




Can you see the size of this belly holy cow huh? Makes you wonder how mother's with multiples do it. I feel ginormous...lol...I can hardly breath at times, I pee constantly and wonder if my back and hips could possibly hurt anymore...but whats crazy is Id do it all again, just to have the rewards at the end. I know call me crazy.

Dedication to Jocelyn!













I'm sending this blog of pictures for a very interesting reason...first off its Jocelyn and everything she does cracks me up. Its just her and I home, Avery is at Grandma Jodi's spending the night and Carys is at Grandma Nanas, so its Jocie time...she was in the best mood and posing for the camera, and then doing her "scary face" note the picture of her fingers in her mouth, that's scary right? However, my interesting question is the picture of myself and then her, do you see a resemblance? I sure don't. LOL....she sure is her fathers daughter. Her with that olive skin, dark brown eyes and dark hair that is getting a hint of blond the more shes in the sun. Funny the way your children turn out so different, it will be interesting to see who baby boy looks like.


Fun in the Sun...





We spent the afternoon at the swimming which was very fun for all the kids, Craig came with his kids, notice the little red head he's holding, she's his...lol...blond roots and red hair its so crazy and so adorable. It was so gorgeous and so fun.

Baby is still BIG!!!

So here I write with an update...yes, I had the ultrasound and Libby the ultrasound technician said that butter ball turkey in my belly is roughly give or take up or down 7 pounds 2 ounces. Holy cow, I know. We were pretty surprised ourselves. As my sweet sister in law informed me however...I can do it!! LOL I guess I have to huh? He wont take him the weekend of the 18th he said that is too soon and he wont take any chances with lungs etc...so he'll take him a few days after but because of Aaron's school schedule we cant do that either so the plan is the 24th or so. He said it just depends on my cervix and how things and he is doing. So good news for Lis looks like she'll make it. LOL I don't know if that's good or bad. Unless of course he decides to make an early appearance all on his own which is entirely possible. So this is what I know. Other than than that we are doing well and obviously baby is healthy.
I did find out that my baby shower is going to be on the 1st of July. Scream yeah I hope lots come and we have a great time.

UPDATE:

So things are moving full speed ahead, we had a week of Aaron not doing school and now he starts back tomorrow at 8:00 sharp for 6 hours of lecture. FUN...tomorrow morning I have my ultrasound to see how big our little man is after 4 weeks. Dont forget that 4 weeks ago he was 5 pounds so we'll see where he stands or weighs now. I will keep you informed as soon as I know.
The girls and I have been going to the park and swimming lots which we love. It keeps us busy and helps the girls sleep well at night which is always a plus.
Hope everyone is doing well I will continue to update as things occur and updates happen. Have a great week.

Graduation Day!




Aaron's 17 year old brother Ethan Graduated from High School and also Graduated from YVCC (college) with an Associates Degree all in the same month. We went to his College Graduation and let me say...I was so proud, he is fabulous. He is such a sweet guy, he's handsome, and talented and just wonderful, but that poor kid had the worst college Graduation EVER...it was so terrible, they talked about people who weren't even present or who were dead. You couldn't hear anything because the microphone was from 1972 or something and it was BAD. However, Stacey, Tyson and I (Aaron had to work) had a ton of fun...we laughed until our sides hurt. Stacey and I watched American Gladiators on Tyson's cell phone, and Tyson and Ira listened to music on Ira's i-pod. It was very amusing to say the least. However I needed a good laugh and that I got. Congrats to Ethan though. He is awesome.


Swimming is so fun....







We love to swim...today we went with some friends to the Howard Amon pool we had a lot of fun...the weather was perfect and so was the water....

Yeah that's not good...




Yeah when your tree falls over, yeah that's not good. LOL....so we had really bad wind one day and our neighbors tree fell down roots and all. Uh, party foul!!

Family Time!














































Aaron's sister Laurie Lyn came to town and stayed at Tyson and Stacey's house for a few days, so we got together and had a family barbecue. It was so nice we don't get to see her as often as we would like, so it was great to spend time with her and for the girls to see her. This is Aaron's Dad's daughter with his wife Pat, she lives in Utah.








We (well Stacey and the girls made cookies). They played outside, got books read to them by Uncle Tyson and Aunt Stacey, and then they pretended to be ET...lol...great picture of Jocie doing it.

Summer Days and fun Surprises!
















We had fun playing and swimming at the pool and enjoying the gorgeous weather!




We also enjoyed giving Grandma (Mom) a surprise Birthday luncheon. It was a huge hit. Craig and his family came. Brandon and his wife Katie. My Dad snuck away from work, I was there with two of my kids, my Grandma, and my Moms good friend Joyce. It was so nice. Thanks to everyone who was able to come, and those who couldnt were missed.




Happy Memorial Day!











We had a great day playing outside, catching bugs in our bug catcher, and barbecuing with our neighbors and their three daughters. We had a lot of fun.

Stay Tuned!

I got an email from my sister Heather in Colorado informing me that its been forever since I blogged....let me say first off, not my fault our modem has been wigging out saying no signal you know the drill so I have been waiting patiently to figure out the problem. So Aaron was off yesterday and decided to call Clearwire to see what the heck the problem is/was well its broken...duh....lol...so they said it would take 2-3 days before we would have a new one, and no phone because our phone is hooked up to our computer. Not fun! Anyway, I am happy to report though after getting home today from an appointment on my porch was our new modem..how quick huh? So I am back to the blogging days...scream yeah!
So I have lots to report and tons of pictures. I will post as fast as I can.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOMMY!!

So today is my Moms Birthday I wont publicly announce her age, but I just wanted to give her the shout out on her BIG day and let her know we are thinking of her and how much we love her. What she thinks is happening today is that no one is doing anything for her Birthday, what she doesn't know is that we have a surprise luncheon planned for her and her family is coming...my Dad, Craig and his family, Brandon and Katie, myself and two of the girls, her friend Joyce and whoever else might show up, we'll see. I hope its memorable and something that she enjoys. I will let you know how it goes and hopefully have some pictures to post of the event.
Happy Birthday Mom!!!
We love you.

A mothers job is never done....is it??

So I have nothing exciting to report, I have just been doing typical things...you know cleaning, laundry, running kids back and forth to school, and of course taking Jocelyn potty....lol...yes shes potty trained. Scream yay and all before baby came. Yesterday I got to spend time with my Mom who has currently been in loopy land since her surgery, so it was nice to see her as her, and actually talk to her...lol...I cleaned her house and we headed to the Dollar Store, and off to get a bite to eat, she was very tired by the end of our adventure, but the girls and I were so glad to spend time with her, we've missed her! And, its her birthday on Saturday...party at Diana's!
The girls are doing great, all but Avery she had to go to the doctor after school today, she has yet another bladder infection...poor kid, but other than that shes good. She is so excited to almost be done with Kindergarten and then soon she will officially be in the 1st grade. I cant believe how fast time flies. Carys is enjoying the warm weather and spending lots of time outside, the same goes with Jocelyn she is her sisters' shadow. She loves to be where ever they are at, she is fun and comes up with the funniest things.
Aaron is busy at school and is almost done, for at least a week then its summer time which you all think fun times, not for Aaron the LPN Program is grueling. It is two full days of lecture and two twelve hour shifts of clinical at the hospital, it is 40 hours in 4 days a week, and then 40 hours of work a week plus us, his beloved family...lol...poor guy!
I am of course just getting bigger by the moment, or at least I feel like it...lol...I am excited for this pregnancy to be over, but at the same time, I LOVE BEING PREGNANT!! I cant wait to meet this little man that goes crazy in my belly but at the same time I don't want it to end quite yet. I will keep you posted on how we all are doing, especially baby and I. Hope all is well with everyone.
