What is this? A picture of our bathroom cabinet? Why would Heather post this?

Oh, maybe its because I found Noah hiding in here the other day. He is so crazy!



So Noah seems to get into more and more trouble everyday. I knew it was coming, I was actually afraid to have a boy for this very reason. Even though I am a nurse, I don't deal well with my own kids being sick. It is so stressful and scary. Noah so far has given me a run for my money, starting even before he was born! Well last night he grabbed a fork from the dinner table and ran down the hall. I said "AHhh Noah is running with a fork in his mouth!" I went to get him, but Ellie was running around the corner and ran right into him, shoving the fork down his throat. Luckily it wasn't the fork end, but the blunt end. It was really scary and he cut himself pretty badly. We thought we would have to take him into the ER. After talking to three different people on the phone, we decided to wait and see if it would stop bleeding. Justin and Matt gave him a blessing and it did! There isn't much you can do for an injury like that, just wait for it to heal on its own. He was already teething, so Noah is a pretty sad boy today. I don't know how we are going to survive another boy and all this stuff. Lots of prayers!

Joslyn is three!!

The kids grow up too fast. I can't believe that Joslyn is already three years old!! I had to sign Ellie and Joslyn up for preschool last month and I asked the teacher, "Is Joslyn really old enough for preschool? Were Ellie and Taylor this age when they started?" She reassured me that Joslyn was old enough and that Taylor was actually younger when she started preschool. I really can't believe it! My little girl is growing up. Joslyn is such a fun part of our family. She loves to cuddle with me and crawl into our bed in the morning. She loves to play with her brother and sisters and her favorite game to play right now is Scooby Doo. She insists on being Daphne every time! She loves to dress up and loves to watch movies!! I am so blessed to have such wonderful kids and we all love Joslyn soooo much. Happy Birthday!!!
I was going to post some pictures of Joslyn when she was a baby, like I do for the other kids on their birthdays, but we just bought a new computer and I don't have access to the pics. I will try to get Justin to put them on our new computer tonight, it is amazing how Joslyn has grown up! Oh and can you guess what the theme of her party was??? She loved it!

In the car

Ellie

I just had to post pics of my little Ellie from Sunday. She was so excited to get new doll clothes from Grandma that she was acting a little crazy. Ellie always acts a little crazy, but that is one of the reasons we love her. She makes us laugh! She is such a good sister and plays well with all of the kids. She is also doing so well in school, she is very smart. We are so lucky to have her.

Happy Birthday Jos!

I know her actual birthday isn't for a few more days, but last Sunday we celebrated at my moms. She was so excited to finally get the cake she had seen since Friday. Joslyn is so sweet and it was so much fun to celebrate her!! She recieved lots of fun stuff and she loves princess and the frog! We will have another party for her on the 22nd, we can't wait!

Taylor Lynn

Here are some pictures from the party this Sunday. Taylor Lynn was so happy to get some new clothes for her doll. Grandma Sheree did a great job sewing beautiful dresses. She loved the princess dresses the most, of course! Notice that Scooby Doo is playing on the TV in the background. The kids are so into that right now. They can't get enough! They are always asking for scooby snacks, and playing scooby doo downstairs in the basement. I think it is so funny! I used to love it too!

To make up for the last post!

So, Justin didn't think the last post of Noah in the dress was very funny. So this is to reasure Justin that Noah is still a "manly man." Yesterday, at my moms, Matt thought it would be funny to wrap up the SI swimsuit edition and give it to Justin. We all thought it would be more funny to let Noah look at it and take some pictures. He was pretty funny, but I apologize for the picture on the cover!

The first of many..

My sister Cortney thought it would be hilarious to dress Noah up like a little girl. I was to tired and sick to protest that day, so this is what happend. He is still so cute, don't you think? I made sure to take off the dress before Justin got home. The princess backpack was all Noah's idea!

Finally

Justin finally replaced the batteries in my camera and I am able to post some pictures again. These are some pics from a field trip I took with Ellie's preschool. It was a lot of fun. We visited the post office and police station. The kids really enjoyed it. I would have taken more pics, but Joslyn and Noah decided to make the day really exciting and misbehave the whole time. Ellie had fun and that is all that matters!

No pictures, sorry!

Well I just wanted to send out a quick update. My camera needs new batteries and I haven't had the chance to fix it yet. We had our 20 week ultrasound last week and were delighted and scared to find out that we are expecting another boy. I am scared, Justin is delighted. The girls had mixed feelings. Taylor said that Noah needed a brother. Ellie said we didn't need another boy baby because we have Noah already. I don't think Joslyn cares either way. I am nervous because I can't imagine the trouble Noah and his little brother will get into! Joslyn has finally decided that she doesn't want diapers any more. It is a relief and a little more stress because she is still having some accidents. But at least I only had to buy one size of diapers this week. Rebekah is home and I am excited to have her around again. All of my siblings, well Vanessa couldn't come, are coming to my house tonight to hang out and watch Ghost Hunters. It will be lots of fun! I love being the oldest and giving my siblings a home away from home while they live in Provo. I hope to post more pictures soon!
