Hadlee's movie Trailor

Here is the fun movie trailer that my talented brother made for Hadlee yesterday. We are having so much fun with him here with us...he is teaching us all the fun stuff that our new computer can do :)

Happy Birthday!!

Yesterday my Sweet Little "Haddie Becca" turned 9! It seems like yesterday that she was born...She was the BEST baby for us! She never fussed, slept all the time, and ate like a champ. Hadlee is such a good little girl, she such a good sister to both her sisters, and brother, a great student, she loves to go to school, and as most of you know, she is great at any sport she tries (complete opposite from her mom!) Her hearts desire is to play tackle football....butI have resisted so far, saying you can play soccer, basketball and baseball, but for the love of pete, my little girl is not going to play FOOTBALL!!! She still plays almost everyday after school with her friends :) I guess I am ok with that....As for her birthday, I checked her out of school a little early and we went to In N out burger, her fav! My brother even made her a movie trailer with our computer that she was the star of! She really got a kick out of that! Then we just had family over and ate yummy pizza and cake and ice-cream. It was a fun day! We love you Had, and we are so proud of what a great little girl you are!

She Sits!

My sweet baby Lucy got her first tooth and started to sit up all in one day! She has grown up so fast, but we all sure enjoy every second! She is very adored by all her siblings for sure! And she adores all of them too! It's fun to see when they get home from school, she lights up and starts giggling and wants them to play with her! I love this age...before they start to really be mobile.....

Who looks like who?

So this past week I have been working on making photo books (finally) for my kids. I made them all books with their first year last week, and after looking at all their baby pics for days and days, they all kind of started to morph into each other!! What do you think? Who do you think is who??

Its about time!!!

Well I know some of you....namely my brother...will be in utter shock to see this. I know, it's taken a LONG time to get back into the swing of blogging, but I figure it's about time! I will begin with Kevin's Birthday, kind of appropriate since that is where I left off 2 years ago! We had a great day, Well let's start off with the weekend before. Kevin and some neighbors had the opportunity to go to the UTAH/USC game in Cali, he had a great time even though it was a whirlwind trip. They lost :( but it was still a great game! Noah and I spent the day on his birthday getting ready. I decided to have a "favorite things theme". We collected all his favorite items from various stores (not Noah's favorite thing) brought them home and put boxes over them oprah style! The kids thought it was fun revealing them that way. We finished off the night by going out to dinner with the family. It was a good day. Thanks for having a birthday Kevin, so we could do some celebrating! We love you!

Thirty Three

From June 28 to Sept 12 Kevin and I are 2 years apart...IE, I am 2 years older than him....and boy does he love to remind me of that! So with that said, Happy Birthday to my sweet husband of almost 11 years!! We had a lovely day with a whole 8 hrs away from our kids!!! It has been since my birthday that we have been alone without our sweet children, way too long, and we very much enjoyed ourselves today!!! Thanks Rhonda for watching them and feeding them and loving them! H A P P YB I R T H D A YK E V I N!
