Apple Orchard

Levi and Emma had such a good time at the Apple Orchard. Not only did they get to pick apples they also got to see lots of animals and go on a tractor/hay ride. Levi loves to get right in there and participate. I love this about my little man.

Emma stood by and supervised for a few minutes then decided it looked fun and dove right in.

I didn't get a picture since I was pushing the double stroller but Emma loved chasing the hens. I might add we weren't supposed to do this so I had to keep chasing her.

We have gotten to go to this particular orchard the past few years and absolutely love it. I can't wait to go next year. Oh and the apples are delicious.

Meet Addison

We were all so excited to welcome Addison. She fit right in as soon as the kids walked in the door.
Wow! A bed full of kids. What more could I ask for.

Emma just wanted to kiss her, and that she did. At least she likes her. Addison did well with all of those kisses.

Such a good big brother. Levi will ask to hold her then after a few minutes "okay I'm done, take her."

Faith is my little mommy. She is so good holding her head and rocking her. I am sure she will be lots of help to me.

Addison

We are so excited to welcome Addison into our family. She is the perfect addition. The night I went into labor was interesting. I had been contracting for a few days so at 2 am when I woke up Joe and said it was time to go he looked at me said "okay" rolled over and went back to sleep. He then heard me calling my mom to have Michael come over and realized I was serious and got up. I have to give him a hard time about this since he wasn't coherant. Baby came and she was perfect. She is bringing more and more excitement to our family. We love you Addison.


More updates to come soon.

Faith's first day of 1st grade

I can't believe my Faith is in the 1st grade. It doesn't seem possible. Faith's teacher this year is Mr. Andreasen. She says he is really cool. They do lots of fun things to help them learn.

I was so proud of her this year. She wasn't too excited for me to leave her on the first day but she handled it very well.

I love you Faith, I know you will do great.

Melissa & Cody's Wedding

It was so much fun to get to go to Arizona (36 weeks pregnant) to see Melissa & Cody get married. Not only that but I got to see alot of other old friends. Congratulations you guys.

Hey Hollywood!

Isn't she just a cutie. Boys stay away!She looks so big! She sure is beautiful though.

So sleepy

Gee we know he's worn out when he falls asleep at the dinner table.
I wish I could fall asleep anywhere like that.

Kindergarten Music Program

I was so proud of Faith tonight during her music program at school. She was a little shy at first but she got into it and I loved it. I love being a mom and being able to watch my children do things like this. The kindergärtners sang about 5 songs that they had practiced so hard for. The entire thing was just adorable.


Getting 30 kids to sit and listen like this. I definitely respect the teachers that accomplish this.

Debuting September 2009

Baby at 11 weeks
3D View of the little one.

Well you can probably tell that Joe and I will be welcoming baby #4 in September. We are very excited and can't wait to meet our new little one. We were surprised at how fast this pregnancy happened but knew we were going to go for one more so are very happy.

Bets are already being placed as to whether it will be a boy or a girl. Joe says its a boy and Faith says its a girl. Levi just kind of agrees with whoever is around at the moment. We shall find out in April though.
