Busy weekend, finished product and Easter!!!

We had a really busy weekend. We are getting a new fence, because ours is falling over. But before we can get a new fence we have to put in a new retaining wall. The wall we had in was a bunch of rail road ties and they were rotting out. So Bryan and our neighbor Lee spent all day Friday and Saturday removing these rail road ties. This was not an easy job. The people who lived here before put in the ties and thought that every tie needed like 4-5 re bar going through them. This made it very difficult to take the ties out. Let me just say that is was a bigger project than we thought and poor Bryan and Lee were very very sore the next couple of days. Here are a few pictures of our project.

We also finished the Babies nursery. It turned out so cute and I love it. It makes me more and more excited for the baby to come. Bryan and my mom did an excellent job. My mom did a lot of work to add green into the quilt, bumper pads, wall hangings,and baskets. I just love it. Here are a few pictures of Maelie's room.
We also had an awesome Easter. Parker had the time of his life. He got spoiled big time. On Friday his Grandma and Grandpa Jorgensen took him to a neighborhood Easter Party. He loved it. He colored eggs and had an egg hunt. After that he just kept asking to find Easter eggs. Then on Saturday we had an Easter Dinner at the Jorgensen's. Parker got spoiled by Grandma and Grandpa and had a huge Easter egg hunt with lots of prizes. He was in heaven and had to sleep with most of his loot that night. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa Jorgensen for the fun Day. Here are some pictures of him looking for his Easter prizes.


Then on Sunday we woke up and the Easter Bunny had come and brought Parker some cool Dinosaur things he was so excited he also got the Bee movie and 101 Dalmatians. He loved it and once again he had to sleep with all of his dinosaurs and he also had to take a shower with them.Here are a few pictures of him on Sunday morning.















We then went to church, and it was an awesome meeting. I am so thankful for our Savior Jesus Christ and all that he did and does for each and everyone of us. I am so thankful for the Easter Season and for the opportunity to reflect on the atonement and Resurrection. After Church we headed over to my parents house for a wonderful Easter Dinner. It was awesome. They then did an Easter egg hunt for all the kids. They loved it and once again Parker was in heaven and made a haul. But sadly I forgot my camera so I don't have any pictures of him at my moms house. But here is Parker right before church in his cute little Easter outfit. Don't worry that he chose the spot to have his picture taken. It was cute. Well we hope you had a wonderful Easter.

Spring time, nightly ritual and 7 1/2 months pregnant

I am so glad that spring is kind of here. It has been so nice sending the kids in the back yard to play. They love being outside and I love it too. They always find their way to the dirt piles, but they have fun. I can't wait until everyday is an outside day. Here are a few pictures of the kids and of course the dog enjoying the sun. Look how dirty this kid is. Like I said he loves to play in the dirt. Well since Bryan has started working a part time job, he doesn't get home until 9. I let Parker stay up and wait for his Daddy. Bryan loves putting him to bed and reading to him. Here is what I get to see every night and it makes my heart melt. Parker loves his Daddy.And last but not least here is a picture of me 7 1/2 month pregnant. I can't believe that I only have a month and a half left. I think I am getting to the point where I am done being pregnant. I am a little nervous for the baby to come, but I think we are getting ready. I am going to try and set a for sure date with the Dr tomorrow. So I will let you all know. It will be nice to just be able to plan the day and just go in and have her. Also Parker had a fun filled weekend with His Grandma and Grandpa Jorgensen. I will post a blog just about that when I get some pictures. So thanks Grandma Jeri and Grandpa Kevin!!!

Don't worry I am still alive

Don't worry I am still here. I have just been a slacker. I haven't taken one picture since those last pictures I posted. I promise this week I will get on the ball. I have just been exhausted and lazy. I forgot what it is like to be 7 months pregnant,then add chasing 3 kids around on that and I just run out of energy. But things are going well and we are all still healthy and happy. I have a Dr's appt this week, so I will keep you all updated on that. I will take some pictures and post them of my little p-man. Just wanted to let you know I am still here.
