A Mix of Jan n Feb

There's been a little bit of change in our home these days... we're expecting baby #5 :)
Only about 8 weeks along here, so just the beginning icky first tri-mester where you feel sick n exhausted, BUT... we are excited :)
The next day after finding out I was pregnant again, Jeremy brought home these beautiful flowers, and to tell you the truth, it melted my heart.  I am so grateful for such a wonderful hubby.
I don't know if I've said it before, but I'm saying it now... I LOVE activity days :) It's the best calling ever! Last activity we had a big group making Valentine Glow jars... so love these girls.
The weather was a little crummy for awhile... again... so we brought out the tube tunnels for Craig and Carson.  I love how they enjoy the simplest of pleasures!
But then finally... the LONG awaited snow came! For the kids of course ;).  Cami said that I needed to take her to the mountains to go sledding if no snow came. Phew! It did! And they loved it :)
We had a couple of two hour delays and the kids took advantage of it... even before 8 in the morn!
Craig on the other hand was NOT a fan of the snow.  He hated that it stuck on his boots, he whined about the bulkiness of the snow gear, but... he loved hanging out with the birds inside.  This is one way to get Craig to stay still... put the birds on him and he's as still as can be :)
I was determined to help Craig figure out snow was FUN! So little by little I took him out, and then finally found the trick.  I need to PULL him on the sled! Once we got that going, he was begging to go outside, haha.  Not sure if I liked that either, but he learned to love the snow so it was worth it ;)
LOVE this pic of the kids
That weekend, Cami and Alex, and eventually Carson, begged to eat breakfast outside.  Lol, I gave in... and they loved it.  Silly kids ;)
My sis, got a new dog (which didn't work out cuz it was part Chihuahua and it pittled whenever she got excited, so they took her back.  Nonetheless... such a cute pup!)  and Mya loved giving Craig kisses.  He got a kick out of it.
I can't believe February is mostly over! Wasn't New Years just yesterday??? Oh my, treasure the moments I say.  Will Do!

Congrats! How exciting and happy for you! I can't wait to see everyone in about a month.

I loved that Craig didn't like the snow. Conrad was the same way. Kids are so funny.

Soooo….just wanted to drop in and comment on how I read this awhile ago…didn't comment then…sorry…Love that you blog/journal still!

it has been three weeks, so you need to do it again ;)

AND…..now that you are fancy iPhone user, you should totally add the blogger app to your phone…then you can just blog those instagrams real quick, and not forget.

Let me know if you have questions about it. I sure like it when I'm sitting in a car waiting on kids.
