This cute boy is now almost 10 months old! He crawls, cruises, and has got the sweetest smile ever! He says dada, mum mum, and uh uh (uh oh). He does lots of tricks on cue like clapping his hands, doing "so big", knocking on the wall, and putting his head on my shoulder when I say "night night". He LOVES being mobile and he LOVES his sisters and brother.
Kaya had her 2nd dance recital. She did a super job and enjoyed dance this year. There were only 4 girls in her class. I took pictures at the recital but they didn't turn out very well. Kaya wanted flowers after the recital. She wants to try tumbling/gymnastics next year.
Logan is officially a pre-school graduate. He will start kindergarten in the Fall. He LOVED going to school and being with his friends. He will be the youngest (Missing the cut off by only 6 days) but he is more than ready for school. We are proud of him and I know he's going to LOVE kindergarten.
Colton had his first yummy treat of graham crackers with frosting.
Our family attend my family reunion in June. We had a good time visiting with our extended family and enjoying the day at the park. Here is a picture of us. This was the day after celebrating our 11th wedding anniversary.
Colton fell asleep at the park. He had his foot kicked up and was relaxed. This stroller has served us well through 4 kids.
Father's day is always a special day. The kids love their daddy and I'm grateful for him being such a good husband and dad to our kids.
Aaron attended a week long Scout camp with his troop of boys. 12 boys attended camp this year. They earned over 50 merit badges and had a super time.
He makes this job look easy! It's a good thing he is such a great Scout leader.
We had a few spare minutes before church this morning. Time to snap a picture. Too bad we couldn't get everyone to smile at the same time. But I sure have some cute kiddos!!
My handsome hubby has been losing weight. He's already lost 50 lbs. He's trying to lose at least 50 more. He's doing a great job and he's looking great.
I've been losing weight too. It's hard to keep track of exactly how much since my weight has been up and down so much with the 4 pregnancies. But since the day I gave birth to my last baby, I've lost 60 pounds. (Almost 10 of that was the baby alone!) I started a running program along with changes in my diet. I hope to lose another 15 lbs. I signed up to run the Ragnar Relay Race in Las Vegas with my mom and 2 sister in laws in October. It's a big goal but I know I can be ready. Here's to being healthy, looking good, and feeling great!
Kaya will be 7 years old this week. Each day she reminds us how many more days it is until her birthday. She is SO excited to be another year older. She's a beautiful girl and she's very smart. She's a good big helper and she LOVES her friends. I hope she has a super birthday!!

Keeping Busy with Moose
Kaya took a dance class this year. This is one of her pictures. She just finished up and had her recital this past week. She did a good job and enjoyed dance but wants to do something different. We are going to try a Summer tumbling class.Wednesday, April 13, 2011
Life with Us
Colton is the happiest baby you will ever meet. He has the cutest dimples and the BIGGEST smile!
We went to the children's museum for a preschool field trip. Emily and Logan could have stayed to play ALL day long. I'm good after about an hour!
This is Logan at the museum. Just last week we went to kindergarten orientation for him. Wow! He's getting so big. He can read simple words, write his name, letters, numbers, and even sound out writing words on paper. The kindergarten teacher who took his group commented on how cute he was. I would have to agree!
Uncle Nick & Andrea watched the kids for us one night. This was on the camera when we got home. They had a good time.
Aaron took the big kids geocaching one afternoon. This is the biggest geocache ever. The kids found all kinds of cool prizes. Aaron had fun using the 4 x4 on his Pathfinder.
Aaron's Boy Scout troop participated in Scouting for Food drive. This isn't all the boys in his troop but it's a good group shot of those who helped collect food for the needy.
I've been sewing a lot lately. This is my latest project. A Happy Birthday Banner. I'm really happy with the way it turned out. I'm going to make some to sell for a little extra money.
Colton is 7 months old now! He LOVED the balloons. He's such a cute boy. He says Dada and makes lots of noises. Kaya is quite good at getting him to imitate her and make funny noises. He's getting close to crawling too. He gets himself into crawling position and then doesn't know what to do. The time is going by too fast!

Snow Much Fun
The kids love playing in the snow. This wasn't a very impressive storm, but it gave us just enough on our day off to go play. This was Colton's first experience with the snow and he didn't really know what to make of it. He fell asleep while we took turns sledding. At least he was nice and warm! We have a picture like this for each one of the kids - in the same green suit!
