Wow Life has been crazy.

I will start with our new little one. Baylee Aaron was bone on Aug 6, 2009 at 305pm by c-section do to being breech. She was 6lb 15oz and was 19in long. I was in the hospital for 3 days and in that time the boys god parents and Travis mom and dad came to help us out. When I got home My hubby's grandparents came to help us out. In the week that they were with us my c-section became infected and had to be reopened. Along with all this going on Christian and Tylar had a summer treason program for school and speech. Every thing was going good and we were preparing for Gavin's 3ed birthday party. The night before I had a low grade temp and one of my breast were red. When I called the Dr he said it was mastitis and put me on an antibiotic this was Saturday. On Monday I had a temp of 104 and was in a lot of pain so the Dr had my come in. During my visit they were concerned that the mastitis was worse, so with that, they decided to admit me. This meant that I had to be away from all four of my kids for 2 days. Even though it was hard daddy did an amazing job. It worked out so that I got to come home the morning all three boys started school. That day was a happy but sad day. Sad cause my boys were grown up and going to school, but happy cause I got to be home and take them that first day. Because of the infection I was no longer able to breast feed, so Ms Baylee has had to go to formula. She did OK with it, but is having some gas and is spitting up. With the Dr's help we are trying different things to get our happy baby back. With all this said here is what you have been waiting on...THE PHOTOS!

Hi my name is Baylee!

Wordy Wednesday!

Belly shot as the boys see it!

This one is from Gavin( no belly but that is OK)

Christian did this one!
Tylar had to see it all:)

There is your belly the boys did it for me. I am now 30 weeks! It will not be long and our baby will be here for all of you to see. I feel like I have a lot to do before she comes, but I now it will all get done in time it has two time now! I now have a little pink in the house and I must say that is fun! With that said if you have some pink things that you do not need let me know.

May where have you GONE!

Can you believe it has been over a month since we have posted a blog. So here is the May break down.

Had a girls day out.

Then it was Mothers Day, all four of my boys spoiled me like always.

The next day was our Annaversery of 7 years and can you believe we got two nights out to eat dinner with out kids.

Have been going to a lot of yard sales to find good deals.

Have had a lot of soccer games, it is so much fun to watch the boys grow more and more in the sport. It is also fun to see Grandpa out on the field as the coach.

It happened Christian and Tylar Graduated from Pre-School.

In the middle of all this Travis injured himself at work duing a training exercise so that means lots of paper work and Dr visits. He is doing ok but is still not allowed to go back to work yet.

Speaking of DR apointments Mine are every two weeks now. I am hoping to put a belly shot on this week.

So with all that said that would be why it has been a month of no blogging. I hope to have more soon, and get back to commenting on your blogs.

Happy Earth Day!

For a long time now we have been trying to go green. If you have some thing that you do let me know! If you would like to see more good art go to ORGANIZED DOODLES.

Our Easter

Yes I know it is one week late, but hey you are getting it! We had a very good but busy Easter weekend. We went to Wheeling and picked up our "daughter" for a long weekend, the kids did 6 Easter Egg hunts, we colored eggs, we had dinner with my family, desert with Travis' family, the Easter bunny came, and most importantly we had 2 church services on Sunday.

We finally got Gavin to sit on the bunny's lap and got proof!

Our cute boys all decked out in their "Sunday" best.

One of the Easter Egg hunts.

Our Beautiful colored eggs!

In the middle of our busy and chaotic weekend we had a wonderful opportunity to teach our boys a valuable lesson about helping one another. At one of the Easter Egg hunts that we went to there was a little boy who only got one egg. So my hubby and I convinced our boys to give up one egg each. At the end of the hunt an older child came up to our boys and gave them each one of her eggs cause she said she had too many. I am always amazed at how God knows exactly how to get our attention even in our chaotic moments.

We hope all of you had a wonderful and blessed Easter!

Tylar made dinner for us!

Tylar loves to Cook so he ask if we would get him a cook book. His grandma had his daddy's old one so she let him have it. This made Tylar's day! So here is the fist thing that he made from the book.
It was good and he was so proud. I was happy that Grandma was here to help because he is a spaze in the kitchen! Grandpa was a good help with Christian and Gavin. Here is our little chef.

letters and flour

We have have a lot of work we need to do on are letters with Christian and Tylar, so I am always looking for fun ways to work on it. Over at Jennys she did it with sugar but I had a lot of flour so I did it with that. I put a little flour on a small plate for each child. Then, I showed them how to make letters in the flour and then shake the plate to erase them. The kid had a lot of fun!

If you have a fun way to work on letters let me know!

This is Gavin last summer at church camp.

So what are we going to have!

You must read this post to the end.
Christian said the baby is going to be a boy, is he right?



Gavin said the baby is going to be a dog, is he right?



Tylar said the baby is going to be a girl is he right?


we are happy to say that Gavin is right!


Now that I had my fun I will tell you that we get to see our beautiful healthy baby today! The baby has a healthy heart, and the coolest thing was that we got to actually see the brain. We did not have this opportunity with our other pregnancies. See if you can make out all the parts in the ultrasounds then I will tell you at the end what they are.







So did you figure it out?
First one was the head see the button nose? CUTE!
Second FEET!! that was a hard one to get lots of moving around.
Third...Did you see it? me neither they tell me when there is no penis visible that usually that means it is a GIRL!! HOLY MOLY A GIRL(dad's reaction) We were wondering if he even knew how to make them. Well if they are right we will have 3 boys protecting one poor little girl her whole life!!! We are happy that everything looked good and we are right on target as far as growth and what not goes. Now we have a lot of shopping to do, no girl stuff!

The boys got my Camera!

I think they did a good job but you tell me how they did.




Kids are so fun most of the time! Can you tell where we are?

Wordless Wednesday!

Our frist baby thing!

He is getting so BIG!

Today Gavin had his preschool Evaluation. This means that he had to go to his potential preschool class for the whole school day(it is only two and a half hours for them, but an eternity for Dad and I). Gavin was all set this morning with his snack, backpack and smile. When we dropped him off I thought he might cry, but no tears from him just a Bye mom. The two hours were very long for me but Gavin did a great job. They only take 20 kids and we are happy to say Gavin is one!

Gavin's first time at preschool.

Tring to put the FUN back in our lives

Lately with being sick and all, I have not been a fun Mama. Now that most of the Nausea has passed it is back to the fun. We have a fun place here in Ohio called COSI a place of fun and learning. So here are some Photos of our fun day.



It was a busy day for me, Travis was at a Bible class, I took the kids out, and got the house ready for some guests. Our friends from school and camp came to visit with there 2 kids.




That next day we went to see Disney On Ice. The boys had such a good time, My hubby and I had more fun watching Gavin clap, laugh, and dance. Here is a Photo of our boys in there new dash hats. (it is from my Hubby's phone so it might not be real clear)



Then only 2 days later we went to see a eat a lot of food hoping a Blue Jackets game would break out =). Our hockey team has an all you can eat promotion that we try to go to every year. This one was Gavin's first one. I don't know if Tylar seen most of the game because he was busy looking at girls. Here is the only photo we got again it is from Travis' phone.


So that explains my long break!
