Little People

Noah is getting old enough that he loves to play with his toys for more than 5 minutes. Lately he has been loving the "little people" by fisher price. We have several sets, and he spends a lot of time building little cities with them. I took some pictures of him doing that yesterday. After he gets everything all set up, one of the girls usually comes and wants to play too. He is learning to share.... Anyway, I know this isn't an exciting post, just wanted to share pics of one of my cutie pies!

Backyard

After two and a half years of waiting for a backyard, we finally have it! Well most of it. We put sod in yesterday and I couldn't be more happy, well if we had a fence.... I am just grateful for what we have. It looks great and Justin did a great job. The best part was when all the neighbors showed up to help us without us asking. It was really nice, we are so lucky to have such good people around us. Here are some pictures!

Scooby Doo

So I know that I have mentioned that my kids love Scooby Doo. Well, they are still really into it and play it everyday. The other day they came up with these Scooby Doo costumes all by themselves. Ellie is Velma and Joslyn is Daphne. Taylor was mad that she didn't have a costume and I made her be in the picture anyway. She looks so cute, and I just wanted to show her off. I love the expression on Noah's face in this picture too. Its his "I am up to no good" face. He loves to bother his sisters, he steals Joslyn's blanket all the time and runs away. He also loves to destroy the houses the girls put together. His all time favorite thing to do is to attack the girls when they are resting on the floor or couch. He already knows how to push their buttons! I imagine it will only get worse as he gets older and especially when his little brother is old enough to join in.

Last of the Easter pictures

I just wanted to post the rest of the pictures from our Easter party at my parents. The kids dyed eggs and Justin did what he does best! I should mention that on Easter Sunday everyone came over to our house for a breakfast, that my parent's cooked. Then after I semi-recovered from my night shift, my mom and I prepared Easter dinner. We also watched conference and played games. It was a great time. We were lucky to get to celebrate Easter twice!

The Hunt

Here are some pictures from the Easter egg hunt we had at my mom's house. The kids had fun finding eggs. The big kids had just as much fun.

Attempted Easter Pictures

So as you can imagine getting a good family picture is not the easiest thing to do. These pictures are proof of that. I just wanted a cute Easter picture with the kids in their matching outfits. I guess it was too much to ask for. Ellie makes me laugh so much, I love the faces she does. Oh well, I guess these pictures just reflect the kind of family that we really are! Sorry its been so long since I posted. I have been pretty sick with a cold/sinus infection. I am feeling much better now thanks to some great antibiotics. Life is just kind of crazy when you are pregnant, sick, and have 4 little kids to take care of! I am glad to be feeling like my regular self again, well, my regular pregnant self. Did you notice that I am 30 weeks pregnant?? I can't believe it only 10 more weeks until we meet this little guy who has no name. I am a lot nervous to try and handle 5 kids, but I am so anxious to meet him. It will be crazy for a while, I am sure, but those first few months with a newborn seem to fly by anyway, so bring it on! Oh and can you believe how grown up the kids look? Noah especially has grown into quite the little man. I have the cutest kids.
