fuN...FuN...fUn....

We love our weekend together.  This weekend we made Valentine Note Holders.  All the kids have already been busy at work putting special notes in eachothers Hearts.


We didn't get as much time this weekend....so we wanted to make sure to fill the time we did get, so we decided to take the kids swimming.  It was so much fun to get out of the house and have space to move and play and be loud.  I really am SO excited to be moving to a house in 2 short months, and have room and a yard, and a play room, and new rooms to paint, and new things to decorate!!!  I'm a LITTLE giddy!!!! :O)


Poor B got stuck with all 5 kids going around and around and around.  Luckily he and Sister got to sneak away and have some special round and round and round time :O)  She didn't want to stop!


AND....that little bump poking out didn't get noticed by the kids...good thing cuz' we are not telling them  for the next month and hopefully tell them when we find out WHAT IT IS!!!!
(boy, boy, boy? crossing fingers...but I guess I could handle ANOTHER princess)
Could it seriously be possible to have 5 princess's?


Then off to Krispy Kreme for a HOT FRESH donut. The kids thought it was So cool to watch the donuts be made. And then of course they all were in heaven when they bit into a fresh glazed donut. :O)


We had so much fun!  Just excited to have them all together more! I sure do love these kids!!!!

MORE TIME TOGETHER!

We are so lucky that we were able to trade Saturdays, (with my kids dad) so the kids could have some time each week together. During the school year it's hit and miss with some of the kids...so they only get to really see eachother when we have a special occasion. So we are SO grateful that now we will have MORE time all together.
I am grateful for the love I feel when we have both sets individually and all together. This past Saturday we talked about goals, and taught the kids what a goal was and how you make one. They all set goals...which included "learning about snakes, learning my letters, reading better, saying prayers by myself at night, earning a webkinz." They all impressed me with what they wanted to do better at, and what they wanted to learn. Then we went and played at McDonalds... they played for hours, and had so much fun together. :O)

New Years Week

We had SUCH a fun week with all of B's family. It was PACKED, busy, and a little stressful, but honestly SO much fun! The kids had a blast together and with all of their cousins, and it was fun for me to really get to know B's Family. Here are some pictures to give you a FAST catch up, and then I will update each of the kids individual blogs with what their favorite things were!

Aunt Amy was Jealous of Babes..."Self-inflicted-black-eye" The girl is lucky she didn't loose her eye!

Bobster was the ONLY one in our family to make it till Midnight, and little Char Char!


Grandpa Lundell took us all sledding up to Snow Basin and the kids built a snowman. We had so much fun all week, and I seriously am surprised i personally made it! 5 kids is a CRAZY LIFE, but it's ours and I wouldn't change it! I am so excited we will start to have every other Saturday together! Love you all!!!!
