Closer to being ready!

One step closer to being ready. Papa brought in the carseat and the bassinet and with a little arranging we have room and bed for one more! It has been a blessing to hear the kids pray and thank the Lord for the simplest of things. As the kids were praying that night Sidon thanked the Lord for 'having a nice home and enough beds for all of us'. It struck me that although I am extremely grateful for all that the Lord brings us the biggest blessing was being able to hear that gratfullness in my children. As our time grows closer to having one more of our 'best good stuff' join this home I am so thankful to have a family that truly appreciates the gifts the Lord gives!

New Slippers!

Lindsay made Molly some sweet slippers today and we had to model them for the blog!

33 Weeks

Craig took some pictures of my ever growing belly the other day and these were a few that I liked.

Fun Discovery!

I forgot that I had a book of masks in the pantry that we had picked up at the thrift store quite some time back. Sawyer came across it and used them as a good project this morning. Molly was not impressed and didn't want to wear one but DID want her picture taken!

8 Month Belly

So I finally had Sawyer snap some pics of my growing belly before we ran out of time. Soon I hope to get my 'belly pictures' done but I realized yesterday that I have like two pictures of me pregnant this time and it has flown by! I can't believe that in just 8 weeks we will find out who this little person is.

Playing Store!

The kids were bored and needed an activity so we pulled out the ironing board and food from the pantry and they set up a store. I am always happy to have them play for an extended amount of time with no fights!

One thing leads to another.

The boys have gone to Donnelly with Papa and Grandma to go skiing this weekend and yesterday it felt very quiet. The girls and I got up, had breakfast, and I decided to do some weekly house cleaning. This is how one thing leads to another! I stripped all of the sheets off of everyone's beds and started the task of washing and making them back up. Now I swear this is not nesting this is just how I am. As I pulled the bunk beds away from the wall I noticed that the paint in the kid's room could use a touch-up and wouldn't you know that I have some extra paint just for such an occasion! It was about 3:00 so I figured I had plenty of time. Craig got home just as I was starting, anymore he just laughs and figures that is me. The touch-up turned out to be three of the four walls and the ceiling but it looks so nice and clean. I would have taken a picture but because I didn't change the color it is only noticeable to me. If this is my vice I guess it is a fairly safe one!
