He's all boy

Evan has been needing some extra attention lately, I think due to the fact that in just a few days he will no longer be the baby in the house. So Chris has been trying to do some fun things with him, just the guys. They have gone hiking, mountain biking, fishing, and camping a few times. Here is a cute pic from a few weekends ago when they went camping at Cane Creek and Evan caught some decent sized fish. The pic was taken with Chris' Blackberry so it is not the best LOL.

Trick or Treat!

A few pics of the kids before they headed out tonight!

38 weeks

Here are a few 38 week belly pics. Please excuse the ratty sweatpants LOL. Not much fits anymore!

Praying for Stellan

Please pray for this sweet baby boy, if you are so inclined. It is his first birthday today and he is hospitalized yet again. May almighty God perform a miracle today and help him on the road to healing. He is a fighter but his little body has been through so much, it just breaks my heart :(

Pumpkin Carving

The kids couldn't wait any longer, although I told them it was too early to carve them. We'll see if they make it until Halloween without rotting. But they sure came out cute! Hannah made a cat face, Evan made a "scary face" and Madi made a heart (LOL she has her first crush and carved M + J into her pumpkin!) This was the first year they did it completely on their own, even Evan. The only thing I did was roast the seeds...YUM!

Hannah

Hannah is my sweet middle child (well I guess when there are 4 she will no longer be *the* middle child LOL). She loves to be outside, riding her bike or her Ripstick, which she is very good at. I don't know how she stays on that thing, none of us can even stand on it!

Thing 3

We got these really cool Thing 1, 2, 3, and 4 tee shirts for the kids (even baby-someday-to-be LOL) when we were at Universal Studios in Orlando last year. Evan is my Thing 3. How is it that one little boy can be so demanding, ornery, and strong willed, yet still manage to be sweet, innocent, and cute as can be??








Who says life is not about "things"?
