Future Cook

I am one of those Mom's that wants my kids to be able to cook, clean, and do their own laundry BEFORE they move out of the house. Mean I know, I hear those words frequently! :) No it's not always done right, yes its more of a hassle, but that's my job right? Hunter wanted some noodles and has been making them since he was 3 by himself. He put them in the microwave and a few minutes later smoke is filling the house.... I thought "OH NO!!!!" It's my expensive, time consuming, yummy lasagna I have been craving all day long burning in the oven! I run in the kitchen but thank heavens smoke is pouring out of the microwave, it was his noodles! This is what happens when you forget to put water in with the noodles :) Don't think he will make that mistake again! I am making a promise to his future wife by the time you meet him he will be a chef, well at least can make noodles without burning them lol!:)

Sophie B

Oh Sophie is such a funny little girl! About a month ago her sweet Sister decided to help her out and cut her bangs so they wouldn't be in her eyes! Isn't that thoughtful? So her already sweet hair do is even better now! :) Sophie is definitely our funniest little one., she isn't talking up a storm but she doesn't have to she as all of us at her beckon call! TJ had some treats and she had some in her hand and wanted more and he told her when she finished the ones in her hand he would give her more, so she put her hand behind her head and asked for more! Poor girl has no idea her world will be turned around this summer. So for now we love our littlest snuggle baby!

Happy Birthday Hunter!

The girls and I surprised Hunter with McDonalds for lunch at school. He loved it and the girls thought they were so cool eating lunch at school with him.

TJ took him to pick out his bike, they went to 4 stores looking for the perfect bike and he finally found it!



Hunter's birthday dinner at Red Robin!

Happy Birthday Hunter, thank you for being such a great big brother and friend. We love you so much and we are so proud to call you ours!

Hunter's birthday weekend

Hunter is so blessed with tons of family that love him so much! Friday, TJs parents took him to Wendy's and to pick out his present and then to Desert Hills High Schools basketball game, he had so much fun and is lucky to have a birthday after Christmas because all the toys are on sale, he came home with tons of fun things! Saturday night my parents took him to see Avatar 3D and had a sleepover! The brought him home Sunday morning and we had yummy scones and he got to open the presents from them.


Sunday dinner at Hunter's request was chicken nuggets and mashed potatoes n gravy, and for dessert instead of cake he wanted Rootbeer floats! Thanks to all our awesome families Hunter had a blast this weekend!

Hunter's 7th Birthday Party!

Hunter's request for a party this year was Lego's, yep of course what else would it be, this kid loves lego's! I had thousands of ideas for other parties but of course the birthday boy gets what he wants, and a Lego party is what he got!
We ate yummy pizza and breadtwists of course!


Played pin the dot on the lego and a lego relay but they all wanted to play in the toy room instead of playing games! :)




Open tons of presents and Hunter was thrilled he got.. yep you guessed it MORE LEGO'S!!!


And last but not least a Lego cake and ice cream!




He had so much fun celebrating his birthday with his friends! Thanks to all his cute friends that came!

Baby Bentley 12-13 weeks

I had to go to the Dr's since I had some spotting and since I am RH-Negative I have to get a Rho-gam shot. Well they did an ultrasound to be safe and found the placenta is near the birth canal, the baby and I are fine but if the placenta doesn't move I will have to have a C-Section! They will check it at my 20 week ultrasound and if it hasn't move I will keep getting ultrasounds until it corrects itself. So send prayers our way that it will fix itself! She also told me I was measuring at 13 weeks and I should only be 11 weeks 5 days but they will most likely keep my original due date, darn it July 29th sounded so much better :! She also did 3D which I never had, but I am going to be honest I hate them, seriously it is creepy to me, I would never pay to see that alien looking creature even when they are older its just plain weird to me. So here is our Alien, it was so cute bouncy around and sucking it thumb! :)

Gender Prediction

A friend sent me this link for Madame-Zaritska birth prediction and I thought it was fun!

***The day you deliver, outside will be foggy. Your baby will arrive in the late evening. After a labor lasting approximately 6 hours, your child, a boy, will be born. Your baby will weigh about 6 pounds, 10 ounces, and will be 17 inches long. This child will have medium green eyes and some auburn hair.***

I am due in August and I doubt it will be foggy in stg. I will more than likely be induced so doubt a late evening. Sophie was 5 hours of labor so it could be 6. I think its a girl and the weight is around all of the kids, but the height is short. And I could see a green eyed auburn hair baby but all my babies are bald until two! :) Here is the link if any of you Momma's to be wanna try it, let me know what it says!

Students..

I have a thing with students learning things on me, I think they know I can't say no!
When Sophie was born they asked if a nursing student could practice on me and with my best friend in Nursing school and my sister in P.A school I had to let him of course. Well he was awkward, not gentle and followed me the whole two days doing everything on me. The funny thing is a few months later we had Chem-Dry clean come out to clean our rug and I was like this guy looks familiar, it was the Nursing student!! So awkward!!
So today I went to my 10 week appointment and the Medical Assistant asked if it was okay if a Nurse Practitioner student came with the P.A. Once again I cannot say no! This N.P was so weird, old, over friendly, and crazy!!! First thing she comes in and asked if I was growing a dark mustache, I said No and she said oh you are having a girl then! I was like who the heck is this psycho!! The P.A. came in and they did my exam and the N.P said I felt a lump the size of my pinkie near the left opening and the P.A was like it feels like normal tissue to me, she even seemed annoyed. So I had three ladies heads looking for a lump and to say the least I felt a little weird! So the student got to do all the stuff on me and the P.A checked and I was like o my heck what's the delivery going to be like this time! At least that sweet sound of the baby's heartbeat at the end made it all worth it!

Momma....

My sister sent this to me and it made me laugh so hard. I swear I don't know how kids know but they must have some kind of radar because they can go all day and not want anything to do with me but as soon as I get on the phone they are all around yelling and screaming and wanting things! Drives me crazy! Seriously I can deal with never being alone even to go to the bathroom but when I am on the phone BUG OFF!!!

Happy Birthday to Mom and Grandma!

I share my birthday with my Mother-in-law and my sweet hubby always tries to make it special for both of us and usually has cake at our house for lunch and then we go over at night to his Mom's, well it drives me crazy so I put my hormonal foot down and said it's a waste of a day for everyone and we should have one party at night! So we made plans and told everyone if they wanted to join us they could and it turned out to be a ton of fun! I woke up and opened presents and my best present was Hunter's the night before he told me he had a present for me but didn't wrap it, that morning he had his hands behind his back and said happy birthday and gave me a big hug. It made me cry, then the girls gave me a big hug and went crazy opening presents! We went and saw Alvin and the Chipmunks, it was hilarious, we all laughed so hard! Then we went bowling, it was crazy but so much fun! Mom and I got the same score too 103 how crazy is that! Then we went to Moms and had yummy shrimp taco's and then pie and ice cream cake! I am so thankful for such a fun family! Thanks everyone!

Happy New Year!

Our tradition for New Years Eve is taking the kids to First Night in town. The kids have fun on the bounce houses and this year they had some pretty good music. We shaked our money makers as Brielle said all night, good thing she doesn't know what that means! To end the night we watched the fireworks and then headed home! I can't believe we all stayed up!
