I feel like crap!

Ok so I really don't want to whine but I am anyways. I feel like crap. I don't remember if it was like this with the others or if I just can't remember. So today I woke up and was like," I'm not going to be sick today I'm going to go grocery shopping, run some errands and just ignore my icky tummy. So James me and Tayor and Olivia jumped in the car and away we went. Went to bank (felt icky). Then James went into HOme depot and I felt horrible so I stayed in the car. After about 1o minutes I got that feeling like I was going to be sick. I grabbed a bag dumped out the items and totally threw up. James came back in and took one look at me and said lets go home. I said no because I needed to go to Winco (grocery store that is inexpensive and far from my house) So I'm walking around Winco looking miserable I'm sure and I feel like I'm going to be sick again. I'm far from the bathroom so I look in my cart and see the produce I just got. I dump out the bananas and have it there just in case. I just prayed that I would not throw up in the store. Well luckily I made it through shopping without using the bag. I came home went upstairs and slept for an hour. I can't wait until my first trimester is over. O.k I'm done.

Big "D" turned 10!!!

This was the year for a family party so Derick got to choose what to do for his birthday. He decided he wanted to go bowling. So we all went bowling and had a fun time then he chose sweet and sour chicken and rice vinegar salad for dinner. For a treat was his cake. Lindsay made it (same girl who made Olivia's) Derick loved it and had a fun day!!! OH my baby is 10, I feel so old.

We're having an "Aloha" baby!!!

Well I should of known that a whole week to ourselves in Hawaii would result in something like this. We are so excited to be having a new little one. I am due the first of October which is a perfect time to have a baby. The kids will have been in school a couple of months with Taylor starting Kindergarten, and summer is over and cooling down. it is perfect. Taylor was born in October and I loved it.

So I had to take a picture I am around 8 weeks along Can you believe that pooch already? Oh whatever that pooch you see is 5% baby and 95 % leftovers from the other 4. It is crazy how my jeans are suddenly snug though. It is true the more kids you have how much sooner things start happening. I always get sick the first trimester and this one has started off the same. I hate this icky feeling all the time and know why you forget it, because you'd only have one kid. I'm just going day by day and hoping that it stops by the second trimester.

We told the kids on Valentines day and they are crossing their fingers for a boy (especially Derick.) Kaitlyn is already mother hen and telling me to go sit down and rest while she gets Taylor and Olivia's cereal. Derick and Kaitlyn are such big helpers.
Anyways I'll keep you posted!!!

FHE with the Kendrick's

We had over a new couple in our ward for dinner and FHE. They've only been married for 3 months and are the sweetest couple EVER!!! They fit right in with our family and the kids were instantly attached to them. It was cute to see them play and wrestle. When they were leaving Kaitlyn asked if they could come and play tomorrow. (I think they really liked them)

In the end they were all tuckered out!!!! This is rare because Olivia never falls asleep like this and she happend to on big brother. . . ohhhhh!!!!

Happy Valentines Day!!!!

We are ready to head out to Outback for our hot date and I had to snap a picture of the kids with Jeff our sitter. I don't know who was more excited, Me and James, the kids, or Jeff.




Valentine cupcakes from the night before, YUMMY!

Fun with friends

The Moomey's came over for a fun night last weekend. I love this picture of Jack smiling all big at the camera. He is such a little cutie.
Crossbows and catapults. This is a game that James played when he was a kid. WE got it 2 Christmas' ago and then put it away and forgot about it, until the last few weeks they've been having fun playing it again and now James is setting up playdates for himself to play this with the "big" boys.

Chair on Craigslist

This is my new chair that I got today. I've been looking forever for something that I liked and wasn't $400. Well a few days ago I went on craigslist and found this one. It was in a ReMax realestate office and is in amazing condition. I'm going to sand the wood parts and stain it a little darker. Post your guess on how much you think it cost me. And if I already told you don't guess!!!

Olivia is 2

On Sunday Olivia turned two. She decided to dress in her princess outfit. It was beautiful weather and so the kids were able to play outside for most of the party.




Lindsey made both of these cakes for the party!! she was one of my Mia Maids and look how great she did, she is so talented. They tasted delicious too.
