Wow! He finally walks. Drew probably took his first steps between 14-15 months (which is several months late for my kids traditionally) but he still would not walk around unless we forced him. We began to wonder if something was wrong. My little twerp, as I warmly refer to him, has been tiny since birth. …

Baseball has ended…at last
Jacob was drafted to the Astros team this year. He played third base most of the season but he pitched a few games as well. He had a great team with fabulous coaches. They only lost two games all season. When it came down to the tournament they lost in the second round to a …
Happy 9th Birthday Jake!
Jacob turned 9 on June 20th. It is hard to believe how fast these little ones grow up. It is even harder to believe how much more expensive the presents they want get! 🙂 We don’t do parties every year and this was his off year. Instead Seth took him and buddy down to the …
Color Me Mine
Just before Father’s day the three older kids and I took a trip to Color Me Mine. It is a fun little shop down in Provo that has already-made pottery that you can paint. They provide the paints, stencils, etc. Once you are done painting the pieces they fire them in the kiln and then …

Thanks to my frequent attendance to my baby doctor apparently I have earned my “buy five, get one free” card (if you haven’t heard, we’re expecting number six). After visiting with my OB today at my monthly check-up he jumped up and said, “Should we go take a peek?” I was confused by what he …

She is so excited to finally be able to attend the same school as her older brother and sister. I, on the other hand, am struggling with …
A lost tooth at the zoo!
Earlier this week I took my youngest three (Katelyn, Claire and Drew) to the Hogle Zoo. I met up with Rachel, her kids and Aunt Abby as well. A special thanks to Abby who helped us keep track of all the little ones throughout the day.
Soccer Champions
Jacob plays on the Titans soccer team. His team is part of the competitive league for North Utah County Soccer (NUCS). The Titans had a terrific season – only losing one game all year – and were the regular season champs. Then came the tournament. After several hard-fought battles, the Titans made it to the …
Oops! Huh? What? For real? Seriously? No way!
Yes, these are all potential names for our upcoming little one. It is also pretty much the same response we expect from everyone we tell. Seth responded differently with something like, “#&*@,” but I can’t post that on our blog. So, we are excited to announce that we are once again pregnant — this will be …
