The joy of puking!

Yes I did say "the joy!" And I am not being sarcastic. No I do not like puking all that much and I hate feeling nauseous BUT I am pregnant and puking, feeling nauseous and exhausted are all good signs. Yup, baby number 5 is on the way! We are SO very excited! A few months ago we had a miscarriage and felt so ready to have another baby join our family but since Scotland is still nursing (much to my dismay) it was hard to plan when we needed to try to get pregnant but now here we are expecting another little monkey!!!

My crazy boys!!!

So here is the latest picture of all my crazy boys! They are so crazy but SOOOO fun! They are such good friends and I am so happy for that! How can you NOT love these 3?

Moses Lake 2008

So, once again, I am just going to post the scrapbook pages that I did for the Moses Lake trip this year. We had so much fun seeing family, and spending LOTS of time on the lake!

I am sure more pages will come, I don't have many pictures of Gabe done yet but he was out tubing on the boat the majority of the time and I need to download those pictures soon, so hopefully I can get around to doing that in the near future!

FINALLY The 4th of July!

I am Finally posting pics from our 4th of July! We had a lot of fun and kept very busy. In the morning we went to our ward breakfast followed by the Gig Harbor Ward activity (lunch) at the Paulson's barn (for those who have not been there, you can never know how cool it is), and finally went to the Himmers' house for dinner and fireworks. Gabe LOVED the fireworks but Landon and Scotland did NOT, Ezra was indecisive. Instead of posting pictures; however, I'll just post my scrapbook pages I made for the event. Hope you all enjoy!

On Father's Day we had a fabulous dinner at my mom and dad's house. We enjoyed it with my Grandma and Grandpa Holmes as well as all of Ben and Suzanne's family. My mom took this picture of my Dad with all his local grandkids. Landon obviously was not too fond of the idea and Scotland is mostly hidden but it still is pretty cute!

1st Birthday!

Scotland had such a wonderful first Birthday! We celebrated with Quincy who was having her 4th Birthday. Lots of family came to enjoy this princess party and we all had a great time!

She is such a beautiful princess!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY SCOTLAND!!!
I have to show off the cakes I made. It took a long time to make these so I want EVERYONE to see them!! The castle was for Princess Quincy and the crown was for Princess Scotland.

She was a little confused by the candle. She had no idea what it was doing there in her cake.

Her two favorite presents! A glow worm from Grandma and Grandpa Holmes and a purple bear that can also be used as a pillow from Grandma Bobbi and Grandpa Jerry.

MMMMMM!! Cake!

At the park

We had a little bit of good weather recently so we spent a bit of time at the park. Scotland LOVED being out side and even tried a wood chip or two. I love taking the kids to the park and hope that the weather will clear up again soon!

I have such a pretty girl I had to take pictures of her while the boys ran around as boys do.

She is not eating wood chips here, just a pizza crust (mmmm).
