Gettin Bigger

Seven months and growing. Well.....not according to the charts. This little fart is still 0% straight across the board. The other girls had a serious "budda belly" to help them sit up, not so much with this one. She had to work on her abs and balance to finally do this trick! Watch out though, she gets so excited that she bounces and does a somewhat boot scootin boogie (mostly when she watches mickey mouse clubhouse.....her favorite).



Poor Jo Jo feels so left out since the girls have a whole neighborhood of kids their age to play with. So Joldy used the one thing he knows best to help entertain..............

Please note the long grass and serious weeds in my yard, the husband is slacking in this area. Also he broke the lawn mower, and well.......we all know how mechanicall-inclined he is! He swore putting together the new jumparoo for Lainee. I mean seriously :)

Good Times and Colorado

My sister, Nickole and her family, came up for one last visit before they move to St. George! We hit a picnic in the park and it was a blast. Her little-big guy Christian is a TANK, no joke! Could not even lift him in the air to get giggles out of him. His is in 2T clothes, OMG. Happiest baby ever though :)

He is already like half the size of me, I could just eat up this kid. He laughs and giggles all day long. His back rolls.....there is like four on each side, and his thighs.......holy thunder!

We headed out to Colorado for Joldy's baseball tourney. We were able go to the Colorado Rockies game. Aside from Lainee, it was the girls' first big league game. They weren't near as excited as my mom. We have created a monster!!!! She absolutely loved it. They are addicting I will admit. We also were able to hit the zoo, I do believe that it is considered on of the best in America. I completely agree. I saw animals that I didn't even know how to pronounce. Jo Jo's favorite was the elephants, the rest of us was definitely the giraffes.

The legion board put together a AA legion team this year and nominated Joldy to coach it. They aren't starting off so hot, but you do have to consider that these boys picked for this team are ALL RIVALS of each other. They are slowly learning to play together and becoming a team. They have such great talent and potential, it is just a matter of uniting.

Joldy turned the big 29 on Sunday! A way boring birthday considering we took a good but kicking at the game in the morning and then had to drive 10 hours home. However, the shopping there puts Salt Lake to shame. The outlets are ginormous and super amazing. So Joldy got hooked up for his big day and I was able to finish all school shopping for the girls.

Not everything was peaches and cream for the trip......Jo Jo had a UTI and got the flu the first night, Sicilee caught the flu the second night, my throat was on fire the whole trip!! The doctors there charge 200 an appointment, so I passed and waited until yesterday to go to the doc. Big mistake....it has escalated into mono!!!! It is so funny when a doctor asks a mother of 4 "so have you been tired lately" I mean really who isn't tired??? So it seems I will be extra exhausted for a while:) Anyslee just started a fever today so I will have to take her in, I am sure it is strep. Needless to say the adults, including my poor mother, didn't get much sleep during this little vacation!!! And my poor Lainee hasn't even got her second round of shots because of sickness ( including being exposed, but not yet catching the chicken pox) that keep escalating my family.
