Update on our week!!

Our Life!!





Since Brian and I have been working all the time we no longer have time to spend as a family, but Sundays. We are usually to tired to do anything so we just rest. We(I) decided that it is not fair to the kids so this past Sunday we had a family night. Our friends gave us a architecture balloon kit. It is like making balloon animals only you make balloon architect. So we had the missionaries over for dinner. My mom was suppose to be here but was unable to make it. Then when they left my mom finally showed up and we had our baloon time. It was intresting to do. Of course the kids watched and I made them balloon sabres and the adults made the space needle, but the kids loved it. It was mostly Brian who made it, but I like to take credit and give my mom credit. It was fun.
Kara is getting to the point where she just wants to go and play with her brothers. She tries so hard to go, but she is not very successful. She is almost sitting up. She sits as long as she is looking stright forward. As soon as her head turns she falls. She only sits for about 2 seconds, but she is learning. She can not get to sitting with out being put there though. She is growing so fast it is sad. Kasen likes to put on make up and nail polish now. It is great fun. There is not much new witht he 2 older boys. Joseph is amazingly helpful and Jacob just over loves his sister.
Yeasterday I was going to have my friend bleach my hair for me. I bought the dye and my mom said "I can do it for you" That was a lie. She totally messed it up It was blonde, orange, and some places she didnt even get bleaching stuff stayed brown. So needless to say it is brown again. It is however a lighter brown.







Kara trying to get going like her brothers. She buries her head in the ground as much as she can.








You can kind of see her belly and boobies off the ground here as she is trying to go.






Then she lifts her head up to watch what they are doing. See how strong she is getting.












Here she is sitting the best she can. She is hunched over leaning on her hands, but it is a start. She did that for the first time today when I was trying to change her clothes. It was exciting. I couldnt get her to sit down. she was trying to stand as I was trying to get her to a sitting position. I let go of her for a second(just cause I like to do that every now and then to see what she does) and she just sat there. She usually falls back and she didnt. I was shocked then excited then sad that she is growing so fast.








Here I am ready for work. I jsut thought you should see me in my work outfit. You cant see my black pants though.








Me and my boys during our family time on sunday.











my mom and all the kids joseph is in the black even though you cant tell it is him.










Joseph, my mom and Kara.












Brian and his precious work of art(the space needle)














The kids and the space needle














As soon as we(and by we I mean Brian) finised the space needle.



Here is my hair with most of the mess up hidden. You can still see a little brown throught he blonde and you can see some of the orange.




Here you can see all 3 colors very nicely. I totally recomend that you have my mom do your hair........ for halloween!!



This is a terrible picture of my, but it shows my new color. It is a light brown. Much better than multi color.

Enrichment Night!!


In May we had a fiesta night at church and there were a bunch of babies there. All the babies except 1 are in our ward. We decided to take pictures of them. We were missing one of the babies in our ward. It was neat though cause they are all born in a different month. It went december, January, February, March, and April. We were missing our November baby and the April baby was a visitor.

All the babies!!


The babies lined up by birth month December starting on left and April on the right. Kara was the only girl and birth month right in the middle.

summer break in a nut shell

I have been so bad at blogging since I started working. I know it is no excuse I only work 4 hours a day. Here is a brief overview of our life lately.

We did a lot of swimming at the begging of summer vacation. It just doesnt seem hot enough lately. We have been at the park a lot lately.

Kasen has been causing a lot of trouble. I need to start taking pictures so you guys can see his trouble. First he climed up to the top of the entertainment center and got Jacobs paint down. He then painted the playroom carpet. Then yeasterday I was trying to do some laundry and he decided to cause lots of problems. I was in my room folding my clothes and he came in and said I decorated the floor mommy. I thought great. When I walked into the kitchen he had painted it with strawberry syrup. Then Joseph came into the bedroom and said you need to come see the bathroom when I walked in kasen had flooded the bathroom with the sink. Last he decided to dump out Josephs moon sand all over the playroom so joseph no longer has any moon sand. What a day we had yeasterday.

Joseph finished T-ball season on saturday and monday we got our soccer sign ups. He is so excited.

Over the weekend we did go the the lake for the first time and had a lot of fun. That has been our summer vacation in a nutshell.



Joseph getting his trophy. It is not a good picture, but it is all i could get. There was no party. The coach just gave the kids cupcakes and trophies after the game. He didnt even tell us he was doing it so I was glad I had my camera. How ghetto!!


Joseph and his coach after the last game.

Barbara, one of my moms best friends and Darrens mom. She bought that pool for my kids to play in. See how much use they got out of it!! LOL!! At least someone used it!

Darren, my friend from high school and my baby girl!

The boys and their friends Laci and Lexi and some random boy who was parked next to us. They spent almost the entire time int that boat with no oars. Joseph made a good motor!
