maternity pics

Casey did such a great job on the pictures.
Looking at these almost makes me miss being prenant...ALMOST!
The pictures were taken at a hotel in Pheonix. It was a fun experience. I wish I would have taken them with every pregnancy.

I have never done maternity pictures and since this is our last child i decided to try it. my talented sister in law Casey took them ans she did a great job. I was 30 weeks and felt huge. Looking back I wasnt that big yet; as I gained a lot more wieght after these pics. This preganncy was not bad but was harder than the rest. I thinkits because I am getting old. afterall I am not 21 anymore. I gained 27lbs this pregnancy and had cpp the first 2/3rds of my pregrancy. Then it moved and I was able to be off of bed rest. I had contractions for a month before the little angel decided to come.

Halloween 2011

halloween was a lot of fun this year. Eventhough daddy was gone hunting, we still had fun and the kids got a ton of candy. I love these kids!

Kingston was a pumkin. He was so excited to be a pumpkin. He calls pumkins "pumpkin patch". He said were is my pumpkin patch talkng about his bucket of candy. He was not shy and went to every house and said trick or treat with a big smile. He was so much fun!!

Harlee was Princess Tiana. She looked even pretter than Tiana. She was so excited to go trick or treating. And since Chris was gone hunting she was so good about making sure her mommy was ok. I had terrible contractions as we were walking around and she was ver concerned. I love her so much. She has the biggest heart of anyone I know.

Trick or treat... Gracee was a beautiful witch this year. She was the pretiest witch I had ever seen. She had a lot of fun geting candy and was very helpful with Kingston.

Camping in the Snow

My three snow bunnies all bundled up for the snow. we had so much fun camping in the snow. It had been a year since we went camping so the kids were more than ready. It was very cold but we stayed pretty warm in the camper that chris redid. Eventhough I was 8 months prenant it was a lot of fun. we even brought the 2 dogs.

Kingston and daddy watching the snow. kingston wanted to go outside but it was 1:00am and 15 degrees outside.

Drinking hot coco in our new remodeled camper that Daddy worked so hard on. It was warm and cozy.

The kids worked so hard on their family of snowman. It took them 2 days to finish and it looked great. This picture doesnt do justice as the family started to melt.

baby number 4... it's a Girl

praying baby
Princess #3, baby #4....its a girl

We were all so surprised to see the results on the ultrasound that it was a girl. Gracee said, "see I knew it was a girl". SHe was very excited. We are all excited to meet the little princess number 3, baby number four. It has been a different experience this time around. Still got the morning sickness, just as bad. At my 18 week u/s we learned I had a complete placenta previa. I was put on pelvic rest and light bed rest with no lifting and working out. it was very stressfull the last 10 weeks, i was good and listen to the Dr. Chris was very good at helping and was very supportive. The scariest part for me was to learn that I would have to do a C-section at 36 weeks.
Needless to say we are very excited and feel very blessed to hear at my 28 week u/s that it has moved and I no longer have CPP. my dr wants to do another u/s in a few weeks to make sure it doesnt move back. I am just so very happy that it moved and I dont have to stress. This little princess is a special girl and I know she is going to be trouble already ;)

MY BABY IS GOING TO BE A BIG BROTHER ...

KINGSTON IS GOING TO BE A BIG BROTHER! WE ARE VERY EXCITED TO ADD ANOTHER ADDITION TO THE FAMILY. KINGSTON WILL MAKE A GREAT BIG BROTHER. THE GIRLS ARE SO EXCITED AND CANT WAIT. I'M ONLY 8 WEEKS BUT WE COULD NT WAIT MUCH LONGER TO TELL EVERYONE.


KINGSTON IS GETTING SO BIG. I CANT BELIEVE HE IS ALMOST 2. HE IS TURNING INTO SUCH A MOMMAS BOY AND I LOVE IT. THE OTHER DAY HE WALKS UP TO ME AND SAYS "MOMMY KISS" AND LEANS IN AND GIVES ME A KISS. HE IS SUCH A SWEET HEART.MY SISTER IN LAW CASEY TOOK THESE PICTURES OF HIM THE OTHER DAY AND HE DID NOT WANT TO SIT AND SMILE. HE RAN AROUND AND POOR CASEY HAD TO CHASE HIM ALL AROUND. BUT THE PICTURES TURNED OUT VERY CUTE!



THE PROOF IS ON THE LINE. WHEN THE LINE SHOWED UP I ABOUT HYPERVENTILATED. I YELLED "CHRISTOPHER" HE COMES RUNNING IN AND I SAID YOU NEED TO SEE THIS. HE KNEW RIGHT AWAY. WE WERE SHOCKED BUT VERY EXCITED. THE THOUGH OF HAVING 4 KIDS IS A LITTLE SCARY BUT WE ARE GETTING USE TO THE IDEA NOW. I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT THE LITTTLE ADDITION WILL BE BOY OR GIRL,WE WILL BE HAPPY EITHER WAY, JUST HOPING FOR A HEALTHY BABY!

So tired....

Kingston just can not get enough of our puppy Rain(Bow). He is 10 months old and is huge. He can be very rowdy but he is just a lover. He loves kids! Kingston loves him so much. Whenever Bow is finally taking a rest, from jumping and playing all over everyone and everything, Kingston is all over him. bow doesn't move a muscle. He doesn't even flinch. He is the perfect dog. I took this pic when Bow was out like a light and Kingston was so restless he was crawling all over the poor dog. They are best buds!
