Patience

I have found my patience wearing thin lately. This pregnancy has seemed twice as long as the others. Now I know why so many stop at four children. Some days I feel like I should be at the nut house. Besides still being pregnant life is going well. I have been busy trying to get the house ready (with tons of help from my awesome sister). I am officially on maternity leave, which is weird since I usually work until I have the baby. Physically I couldn't handle it anymore, but mentally I really do enjoy getting out of the house and doing something to contribute to the world and bringing in a paycheck. I also miss all my friends at work who keep me smiling. So now I am just waiting, and waiting, and waiting. Hopefully I can change my attitude quickly before this little one arrives.

Help me win a dream Nursery!!!!!!!!

I found a new favorite spot for pictures, and decided it would be perfect for maternity pictures. My friend Wendy was sweet enough to drive to Coalville to take these for me. She is so talented and I am so lucky to have her as a friend. Thanks Wendy. The kids were excited to get their picture taken, and Kira had been practicing her "pose" all week. Well, when it came time for the pictures she was shy and didn't want to cooperate--funny girl. Anyway, we captures some really amazing shots and I am so excited to hang these up on the wall of my new nursery that I am going to win!!! It was so weird the day that we took these I was listening to the radio and I heard about the "baby bump" contest on zht. I have been thinking back and forth if I should enter and decided to do it. Now I am soliciting votes from everyone I know. It only takes a minute to vote. I am #33. Here is the link to the page. Please, please help me win a dream nursery!!! http://www.971zht.com/pages/babywatch10/


Love this one of Trever. He is such a great Dad!!!



All the kiddos. Can't believe there are four!



This is the picture I entered for the contest.


Me and Kam. She was so adorable when we were taking pictures. Those cute blue eyes--I just love her.

First Day of School 2010

I can't believe it is school time again. Where has the summer gone. The kids have been so excited to start school, though I don't think anyone is excited for the busy and early mornings. Bryce is now in 2nd grade. He is in Mrs. London's class, which is strange because she was my forth grade teacher. It is sure nice to know the teachers and know that I am not just sending him off to be taught by some stranger.


Bryce on his first day. He spent a day out with Trever before school. I told them that he needed two things: a haircut, and some school shoes. This is what he came home with. I about died!!!! I tried not to be furious with Trever because I love Bryce's wild hair. So needless to say, he went to school with a shaved head and light up sketchers. I guess as long as Bryce is happy that is all that matters.


Catching the bus. I heard him yell "love ya mom" but he didn't even look back--sad. He is just growing up too fast.

Kira is in preschool again this year with Miss Shelley. She is so excited because this year her cousin Steele is in her class. Kira is not a morning person and we usually struggle the first few weeks with the early mornings, but I am hoping she will adjust.


The classroom and Miss Shelley's is full of toys and fun activities, and Kira usually talks the entire drive home about her day at preschool.
So this just leaves Kambree home with me. I am looking forward to having a little more company next month to keep Kambree and I busy. It will be fun having her home to help me with the baby.
