Easy Bake

My girls are going to be such great mommies. They love practicing with their easy bake.

Everyone Loves Chresten

Everyone love him we have to take turns holding him.

Home from the hospital

I can't help taking pictures of my cute newest guy. Here we are coming home from the hospital.

Here comes Chresten

Yay wonder of wonders, miracle of miracles he finally came. At 9:32 Kenneth Chresten Nelson was born. He was 19" long and weighed 6 pounds 4 ounces. It was defiantly a different labor. Being induced and having an epidural were different experiences to add but every child is different, so is every labor. My sisters Kylee and Patricia were there to help and Ryan got to catch him and put him on my chest. It truly was a miracle.

Kids can sleep Anywhere...contd.

This happened a few days before I had Chresten. We were getting birthday presents for dad at Target and Foster was really tired I guess. So was Pearl as you can see from the pictures but all she did was cry. He slept all through the cashier and everything until I had to put him in the car. Then he went right back to sleep.

El Matador

Kimberly and I were witness to the brave little matador. She was amazing. Andrew trained Pearl to be a matador. The other kids were the bulls. It was pretty good. Great entertainment.

Valentine's Day 2012

We made our annual visit to Sakura. It was great fun. The kids, as usual, were very well behaved. Somehow I only have one picture. Oh well. Yummy food and good company.

Ryan's Birthday

Someone attacked the cake. I think it was pearl. In fact I caught her in the act. Although that didn't stop her. She must have thought she was too cute.

When will he get here?????

It's not so bad when I am the only one saying that but it has become almost unbearable when I have a chorus of 5 others asking me every day. So for now I just sit and twiddle my thumbs. I should be cleaning the loft, deep cleaning my bedroom and doing what feels like mountains of laundry. Oh well...the 18th or the 25th will get here eventually...
Just for the record here were every ones guesses:
Dad 13th
Mom 12th
Andrew 29 leap day
Lilly 14th
Abigail ?
Foster 15th
Pearl 1st

Kids Fall Asleep (episode ??)

Yet another installment in the kids fall asleep series. Cry cry cry lay down cry wimper sleep.

Vail Pride Day 2012

We had lots of fun at Vail Pride Day. The School District's fun bus was there. The kids had their art projects there. The Sheriff's office was there with the swat truck and a motorcycle. Andrew got the gun holes open on the swat truck. My favorite part was watching Foster try to be the first one through the fun bus. He was scared though. We have a video if it works. The school choirs and orchestras performed also.

Way on time

So we r all in the car and ready for church. Turned on the car to see the radio. We saw 845 and thought at first that the battery on the car had an issue. AT&T confirmed that it was actually 845. That is focus to get ready for church.

New stroller

We got a Cadillac. I mean a new stroller. It is wonderful. Swivel wheels. Smooth riding. Folds up nice. Big wheels that are air wheels. The wheels can lock straight or lock to allow just a little swivel. Very nice. It is called the Valco trimode twin.

Math Bowl

Lilly is on the math bowl team for Mesquite Elementary.

Valentine' Morning 2012

We decorated the table again this year. Not quite up to standard. It is always a ton of fun though. Balloons. Pink milk. Candy. Mmmmm.

Valentines Day

It snowed today! What a freak storm it was!? I hosted salad lunch and Andrew was the trooper and grilled pizza on the grill for us. It was delicious, although I didn't take pictures. Tonight we had some yummy bacon wrapped filets and all the fixins. Couldn't have asked for a better day.

Sick Pearl

Since Saturday night thur today she has had a bad cold and fever. All she hash wanted to do was sit on my lap. I think it is just her way of preparing me for what it will be like with another baby in the house.
