Picture Day

I know I can't be the only mom that STRESSES out on picture day! I can't even describe how stressed out I get! It is VERY difficult to get 4 children, with 4 TOTALLY different moods, to look at the camera and smile! Heck, for that matter, to get all 4 of them to even look at the camera at the same time! I know everyone usually shares the "good" pictures, but I wanted to share what our family goes through everytime we try to do family photos...
Lots of these...if you notice, I do have Morgan "trained" LOL...she doesn't move when we say smile!!

Then there are lots of these...Ethan running away and Hannah trying not to chase after him! And of course, Bella, who just HATES taking pictures!! LOL

And every now and then I will get a good picture! Like I said, all 4 looking at the camera, not necessarily all smiling...but at least I got 3 of the 4!

And of course, my favorite ones...when everyone starts to get tired and the tears start flowing! Poor Ethan was tired!

But I was able to get this SWEET one of him smelling the flowers!And here is a good one of Morgan and Hannah...
But I wouldn't have it any other way!! Although...it would be nice to find someone that would just let me drop my kids off with them and let them do all the work and get those "PERFECT" pictures! I can only imagine what that would cost me! LOL!
My Sweet Baby Girl!!
I almost forgot...Thanks to Melanie for taking the pictures for us! And keeping me somewhat sane that day!!

The Easter Bunny Came...

And he brought lots of goodies for us!! Ethan's 2nd Easter! "Cars" and candy! Yippee!!

He brought the girls all Hannah Montana barbie dolls and TONS of chocolate!! YUMMMY!!!

Make ya think twice...

This just makes you go ewwww....I never once thought twice about ordering water with lemon on occasaions while out for lunch or dinner, but after this, I think I will steer clear. And to think we've even given the kids a lemon to see their funny face while waiting on our food....YUCK!

We are what??!!

Lots of explaining to do...I know, I know!!! What a crazy yet wonderful month we have had!!!

Yes, you read that right...We are expecting!! You can only imagine the shock we have gone through over the last few weeks! At no point did we ever consider having another child. I mean, we have 4 already! But, He has other plans for us! Everything happens for a reason. One more child to love!! We are very excited!!

So I have an excuse for not blogging...I have been really sick, mainly at night. AND I started a new job last week. I am working in Sales for a local electrical company. It seems to be great, just totally different than what I have ever done. It's gonna take a little bit to get used to!

Kids are great..We started t-ball and softball this week. Hannah is so excited to get to play this year! She is really going to love it! Morgan on the other hand, I had to make her pinky promise me she wouldn't play in the dirt and she would actually pay attention this year!! It's going to be a great season!

So, back to the baby news...Due date right now is September 22. Although the baby was measuring about a week larger so we will see what he says at the sonogram on the 26th. I will try to posts some pictures of the belly....yep, it's already there!! I hope to keep better pictures and info about this pregnancy...since it will be our LAST!! And yes, we are going to make SURE it will be the last!!

I promise to get better at posting...no more excuses about not having anything to post about!!
