It seems I have been seriously slacking in the blogging and picture
taking department. There are many times I wish I would have taken more
pics of things because you can't ever get those moments back.
So here is to some catch up, if I can remember it all!
Ash had her friends party, it was a slumber party. I only allowed 4 friends, but with my 4 that was 8 girls- that's enough for me!
We stayed down at the barn and they had fun playing the wii and other games. Sardines is always a favorite down there!
They hate when I take their pics dancing!
more presents, don't know if she can get them all in her room!
Lots of pizza and cupcakes!
Lyvi went with the flow and tried to keep up with the older girls.
some of the decorations
The girls got in the hot tub and had a blast (I think it was to cold, Ky had it set at 96).
This is actually the second attempt, they got in the night before right as a thunderstorm started. They had fun screaming and getting rained on, but I think they had more fun the next morning.
Lyvi really enjoyed the balloons!
Ash's birthday dress from where else Justice! I need to get a pic of her after church with her hair done and her sweater on.
We went to the orthodontist and Kaite now has neck gear and a bright pink glow-in-the-dark retainer.
Ash is almost done with her retainer, it is now holding her baby teeth in and the permanent ones are coming in on top of them. She had to go to the dentist and get 2 pulled, 2 more if she doesn't get them out soon! She was numb for hours!! We all got a kick out of it!
I started ordering baby stuff, including Lyvi's new car seat which she is still too small for. She just needs to fit in the next 6 months, I was hoping she would fit before the baby came but she is still hanging out at 17.6 pounds.
blessing dress that I just love.
Lyvi loves to rock her baby.
She knows where her eyes, ears, nose, hair, toes, belly button, tongue, and teeth are.
Chelsea's birthday party, the girls had so much fun.
Lyvi just wanted to haul the kites around.
Couldn't remember if I posted this pic already. We were at Mar and Cory's shower and played an awesome game, yep that is Ky with a bra on his head!!
Lyvi LOVES her daddy!
Ky being silly and imitating Ash. She read a ton for the read-a-thon over spud harvest. She kept taking over the living room though with all her stuff!
My girl is growing up! She loves to ride her bike and dance around the house.
Also.....
We had a good spud harvest. Although, I can't really remember what we did, the girls read lots for the read-a-thon. We had some fun watching movies at the barn with marshmallow popcorn. Kaite got a haircut and Kami split open her hand, it has healed very nicely. Kaite had fun chasing a bird around at ballet. Ash found out she has a lead part in the Nutcracker in her dance. The girls all got their flu shots. We got all the decorations and costumes out for Halloween, Lyvi is too small to fit into the one year old costume...We watched conference and Kaite was the only one to put a rock in the jar all 4 times! I have started some serious Christmas shopping. We bought a new truck (it's just a work truck for hauling wood and plowing and such) can't believe we went so long without one. Ky drives it every chance he gets. I think that about sums it up for now. Honestly, I have been really busy shuttling everyone around and stuff with the barn has been crazy. Also, I have been trying to take it easy when I can. Doc says baby is looking good, still big and I still have hopes they will move my date up. I am not anemic this time yay! But due to all my contractions and rash they are monitoring me more closely now.
I have been working on this post for about a week now so I do want to get it up. I also want to do a separate post on Lyvi. She is really hitting some milestones with her talking and understanding of things, I think that deserves it's own post.
