Science Fair

Andrew loves

doing the science

fairs. Actually

all the boys wanted

to do one but I knew

we wouldn't be able

to keep up with doing

one for all of them

with everything else

we have going on right

now to. I decided since

Andrew has only one

more year after this

I would make sure he

got the chance to do

this and he's planning

it since last year.

Hopefully next year

we can do better and

get the other boys

involved. Andrew

with the help of his

dad did an experiment

of making plastic out

of milk, cream, lemon

juice, and/or vinegar. They had a lot of fun

experimenting with the different combinations. He

didn't place as he was hoping so we are waiting on

the judges notes to find out what we can do to

improve for next year.

Soccer!

Soccer time
again! All of the
boys enjoy playing
soccer and this is
Jonah's first year
actually playing.
We are a little
disappointed that
his coach is not

actually doing practices
with his team. But he
has fun whether he's
running after the ball
or running in circles
with his arms out.
Andrew is the one
that takes soccer
the most seriously.
He's loved playing
ever since we enrolled
him. He's taken a few
to the gut this year, but
he keeps playing. Jeremy
is showing a lot more
interest this year. Last
year he was all about
climbing the trees, and staying out of the game so
he could do that. This year he only wants to climb
trees when he's sitting out. It's been great to see him
get more involved this year. His next game he gets
to be captain and help decide who plays where on
the field. He's really excited about it.

Derby Car

Hey I thought

I would share

with you the

fruit of Andrew's,

Mundy's and

Brady's labor.

Andrew designed

and sanded the car.

Mundy did most of

the wood working

with his dremel, etc.

He's not quite

ready to let

Andrew do that yet.

Brady is Mundy's

co-worker and

friend who makes

derby cars and sells

them on the internet. He offered to paint

the car as he has all the equipment needed to do it and do it neat. If you

can't tell he has a pearlized paint on this and I think

it turned out awesome! Andrew is over the top

with the outcome and is looking forward to the

races on Thursday. Hopefully I'll get some pictures

from that event and will post them when we get back

from Manti.

3 months to go!

Here I am in all my pregnant glory!

People actually

are starting to

notice how big

I'm getting but
as soon as I tell

them how far a

long I am they

say you are so

small! I have to

admit to them,

that I may be

smaller then

some women at this stage, but I feel huge and awkward! I waddle like a duck for one thing! Mostly I feel really good but the nausea has come back a little. Luckily it's not as bad as it was there for a couple of months and it's not constant. Mostly I have problems with the aching rib, sciatic nerve, occasional back aches(mostly from sleeping) and the aching leg while I'm sleeping. Everytime I bring these up with the doc he says"You are experiencing that already? Well it's going to get worse." I just keep thinking 'thanks a lot!' Other then that Lilly Ann is a mover and kicker. The boys love to feel her move and I love to see the expression on their face when they do. I even had Jonah climb in bed with me a couple of mornings just so he could feel her move before I got out of bed. It's really cute. Everything is going really good with her and from what we can tell she is very healthy. As of my last appt I'm going in every 3 weeks instead of 4 so the countdown has begun! I want to tell you that I love you all and really appreciate the gifts, the support and the love you have given me. I'm continually reminded of what wonderful family and friends I have. FYI- there is another post after this one!

BBQ @ Aunt Cindy's

We had a BBQ at
Aunt Cindy's house
and then after that
the boys played with
bubbles in her backyard.
I tried to get better
pictures but they kept
going out in the sun and


I couldn't get good
pictures out of them.
And of course during
dinner nobody wanted
to cooperate either.
Justin, in the green
shirt, loves to play with
his cousins and they
to play with him too.

Okay I need some back up now....

How many of you, that have been pregnant, had some really 'far out there' dreams? Like seriously I wouldn't tell most people about some of them because they are so wacky and out there. They are all over the place from Jonah almost getting smashed from a 3 or 4 story fall to mermaid type girls that have tunnels under the lake they swim through, to less mentionable subjects. It's weird because my dream will include all kinds of people I don't usually dream about, cousins, ex-neighbors, ex-boyfriends, etc. So please tell me I'm not the only one!!

More then one post...

I posted 3 at a time again as usual. For some reason downloading the pics from the camera has to be more difficult in my screen and so I don't like to do it unless Mundy is around to help me put then in the right place! Happy watching!

Undie boys!

Here is my
boys' idea of
fun! Andrew
will not be
happy that I
posted this,
but it's really
too cute not to

post! Andrew even
said he was going to
wear it to school. I
told him if he was going
to do it he should do it.
I know he really
wouldn't!

Monthly pic

Here is the monthly
pic that has been
requested. Apparently
I finally look like
I'm showing!
Jonah decided he
needed to be in the
picture!

My little chef

Isn't my little chef so cute?
He wanted to help with the
cake so I had him wear an
apron since he was in school
clothes. Just about the
first thing he did when he
started mixing was to lift it
up and it ended up every-
where! I had cake mix on

the wall, phone, floor and
of course the counter. He
kept saying, "Am I in
trouble?" I had to reassure
him that no he wasn't in
trouble. It was an mistake
and that he would learn from
it.
