Update

Life has been busy and so much fun lately. Besides what is posted we have been busy with birthdays,church callings, swim lessons, a Vegas trip while dad was in the hospital, my mom coming out, practices and getting Anna ready for dance, which starts next week!! I just wanted to take time to document some of the things that we've been doing.

We recently took a trip to Vegas to visit my dad, it was a lot of fun. We did a lot of things: zoo, chocolate factory, dinner, and the Dino Park. Picture were taken by everyone, these are some of the ones from Gordon's phone at the Dino Park













Gordon's work had a company get together at a local theme park, the kids had a blast

Sean went with Kenny on the go carts


Of course, a carousel


Lunch





One of the little spinning boat rides


Easter was so much fun this year. The kids actually had three hunts, this is just of the one from our house on Easter morning.

Kenny played some T-Ball this spring, and while he probably enjoyed soccer more, he kept telling us he was having fun, so that's good. He was definitely the kid who picked grass, but he had fun making friends. His best friend Ryan was on the team with him, so that was fun.

I haven't blogged much lately (difficult with a baby), but I love my life. I may not document everything, but I have a blast with my family, they bring me so much happiness every day and I just enjoy being around them and playing with them. Being a mom is the best; I get to be a Nighlok (bad guy from Power Rangers), a coach helping Kenny with his exercises, a singer, a dancer, a cook...anything with my babies. Here are just some every day pics

Baby Sadie

So, it's been a month since Sadie has arrived and I haven't put up any pictures yet, but now that Gordon has transfered them from my phone to the computer I can put some up! Yay!

Sadie and Daddy in the hospital. It took forever to get out of that place because I had a fever during labor (flu), and so they did blood work on Sadie, and we had to wait an extra day to leave, I hate the hospital!


Gordon is so good with babies; he has lots of experience with all his siblings, but he is a great help.



While Kenny had his soccer games Sadie and I got to hang out together.


Gordon, Kenny and Anna relaxing. He gets up with the kids every morning so I can sleep in; I really did marry the best man in the world!


Big sister kisses! Anna is adjusting very well to having a sister.


Kenny loves holding Sadie, he loves babies; I had no worries about him adjusting


Sadie's first Sunday at church, I had to choose between Kenny smiling, or Anna with her legs closed...Anna won!


Kenny and Sadie before church:

Kenny loves his baby Sadie.



Gordon loves playing music with his girls:


Having three kids is pretty exhausting, but I think it is important to try to spend one on one time with each throughout the day. Sometimes it is hard, but Anna and Sadie both nap so I'm able to get it done! Just no down time for mommy! Sometimes I give myself time out and relax to watch TV or read for a little bit while I nurse Sadie. Here are a couple of pictures of my older babes!

Having fun with Kenny


Anna in her sunglasses and sporting a chocolate mouth.


Valentine's day was pretty non-existent this year because of Sadie, but we did manage to do some things for each other. Gordon surprised me with an Edible arrangement, which I LOVED! It was delicious.


Having a baby always makes me love my husband so much more than I ever thought possible. I love my babies, but I am so happy it is me and him for eternity!

Kenny's first soccer practice, and other stuff

Kenny had his first soccer practice today, and it was so much fun! I love having children old enough to participate in activities. He did such a good job too, we have a really great team, and all the parents are nice too.

All ready for practice! He was super excited!


A little stretching before practice:



Yes, he got pushed down by accident..the spacing wasn't that great, but he got back up and still played. It was pretty sad for a moment though!


Kenny kicking it in the goal


The coach kicked the balls out and the kids had to go to their ball and kick it back all the way to the coach, no hands, Kenny did pretty good.


While Kenny has his soccer, our little Anna gets to start dance in June! I'm really excited, we went to one of their classes a couple of days ago, and it was a lot of fun, and the instructors were really nice to the kids.



In other news:

Anna is all alone in Nursery now! She seemed to do very well though.


My big Kenny man is now a Sunbeam!!!! It is so fun to watch him in primary!


And more other news!
Happy 5th Anniversary to me and Gordon!!!! Todd came over at nap time and Gordon and I went to this lunch place in an orchard, it was pretty cute. And then when the kids went to bed Sean stayed with them, and we went to the movies. I love my husband!!!!


This year has started off great! I love that my kids are getting involved in stuff and learning and growing. I love being a mommy!
