Annual Phoenix Trip
It never disappoints. Even flying to Pheonix is fun with all the anticipation of the sunshine to come. It took about 2.5 minutes before the kids had stripped down, put their suits on and jumped in the pool. How spoiled we are the entire time! While the kids played in the…
Baseball Season!
Baseball season has been so much fun this year. We’ve been lucky with the weather and the fact that the games are right at the bottom of the hill at Juanita Beach Park has made it so easy. Skyler usually brings her best buddies, Ari and Gwen, with us and the girls (including Presley)…
Neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt
I talk about our neighborhood a lot – 26 kiddos under the age of 12 in a 3 block area. How cool is that? Liam and Skyler can come home from school and actually play….like kids should. Presley is now starting to go up into the cul de sac as well to be with her “friends.” Skyler…
Presley and Grandma at Gymnastics
Well, grandma couldn’t let her baby be ignored. With Skyler getting so much attention from gymnastics and Liam with baseball, grandma enrolled Presley into a mommy (grandma) and me class at the Gymnastics Connection. Presley is apparently a bit of a spazz running around like a chicken…
Cousin Alex comes to visit…
Cousin Alex came to visit us this last week and how special it was. He has turned into the coolest guy. Skyler literally cried when he left. He brought with him a calmness to our otherwise chaotic life that was so nice. Down for whatever, he would sit and play guitar with…
Big Girl Bed
I’m not gonna lie….this one was hard. I had a huge lump in my throat as I walked into her bedroom tonight and saw her sleeping, for the first night, in a big girl bed. My last baby. Now out of a crib. Ughhh. Why why why can’t I just freeze time?
Mom and Dad’s Anniversary
I know this blog is all about the kids, but I suppose its ok to post a couple pics of Leif and I too (since there would be none of these kids if it weren't for us after all!!!) It was our 12th year anniversary today. We went to our favorite restaurant – the same one we went to on our…
Skyler Performs at UW
Skyler and her team got to perform at a UW meet this weekend. It was so fun (maybe mostly for me) to go watch the college girls compete and then see Skyler out there on the floor. Now I may be biased, but she is so darling – the littlest one on the team this year and smiling so…
Darn Pneumonia Strikes Again
This time Presley. Poor little thing. But thank God that Children’s Hospital is in our backyard. She will be better in no time! When we walked in, she could hardly lift her head off my shoulder. Then they pumped her full of albuterol and she couldn’t stop bouncing off…
I am participating in Idaho Rivers United’s River Run and was wondering if you would support me.
Idaho Rivers United works to protect and restore Idaho’s rivers and native fisheries, a cause very important to me. Idaho’s rivers need ongoing dedicated protections to keep our waters running clean, clear, and full of fish.
To participate in the River Run, I rafted down the Middle Fork River and had a great time. I saw lots of different kinds of fish and even a black bear. They were all in their natural habitat and I want to keep it that way so all wildlife can be happy forever.
Please consider supporting me in my efforts for this worthy cause!
