The baby got stiches...

Yesterday we were playing outside and I was heading in the house with Bella behind me. I was holding the front door open, waiting for her to come in, and she tripped and fell and hit her forehead right on the first concrete stair.

I knew it meant stitches the second I saw her laying there, because I saw the blood immediately gushing out of her head....you know how head wounds bleed! Thank heavens for my wonderful neighbor, who was over at the time. She took me and Bella to the Urgent care, and we met Boyd there. It only took 4 stitches, but it wasn't fun holding her down...but it happens.

Now all 3 of my girls have had stitches in their heads....Brooke twice. Micah has been the lucky one....knock on wood!

I am just grateful for good doctors!!

This is after the stiches...I got one shot of it before, but it is on my phone....I don't know how to get it off yet! You know me and phones! :)

She got quite a bit attention from her siblings....and mom and dad!

Poor baby!

Poor Bella, she really doesn't have the best balance. She seems to fall more than all of my kids combined!! Hopefully that doesn't mean this is only the beginning!!

My mother's day!!

I woke up to this on the table from my sweetie pie!
Some flowers and a note!

Then breakfast in bed from the kids!

I love these kidos!!

This is a present that Megan got for me. She made it at activity day. It was super cute. It was some bath salts and the scrubber made to look like an ice cream sundae! So cute!!

What we have been up to lately!

So we have been super busy lately with home repairs and normal everyday life...which keeps us super busy in and of itself.

We have recently remodeled our bathroom...which I absolutely love!!!
If you want to see more on the bathroom click Here
I have done an entire post about it on my craft blog!

Brooke and Bella being cute

Bella absolutely loves outside, she would spend the entire day outside if I let her!

Fallen asleep while having lunch!
I feel like that too often!!
Aww....how cute!!!
I love those faces!

Finally.....some pictures!

So today I got in trouble for never updating this blog!
I really do feel bad about it....but trying to keep up on a craft blog, family blog, and be a half decent wife and mother is a lot!! It actually has me going 100% all the time...which isn't a bad thing, just busy!
So anyway, I thought I had better post some pictures....I went through and uploaded the most recent pics I have taken. I feel bad because I have a lot of Brooke and Bella, but not so many of Megan and Micah, I guess I need to be better about taking pictures of the older kids.

Anyway, these pictures were taken because Megan was modeling a necklace I made!

Isn't she cute!!

Micah playing Jr. Jazz! He was kinda timid, but I think he liked it and he did make several shots this year! This was his first year playing!

This picture was taken on Brooke's birthday...It was so funny because I painted the girls faces and Megan decided to paint Micah's face.....and the paint wouldn't come off!

Micah went to school with a pink face....someone made fun of him.....he cried....they got in trouble...Micah felt better!!!

This is Brooke's carebear birthday party! It really turned out cute and the girls had a fun time!

Brooke's cute face!

My big 4 year old!

The birthday cake

I couldn't resist putting this one on! She is doing her chores...oh that chubby body is just too cute!

The birthday girl again...

This was the first time I put piggies in Bella's hair.
We all thought she looked so cute!!!!

Don't look at my messy fridge!!!

So cute...I just love that face!!!

And that's all folks....check back in another month!!!
Just kidding, I promise Kristi, I will try and do better....I promise!!!

Vacation time!

We took a little vacation to Salt Lake City a couple of weeks ago. It was so much fun! We did a lot of things in the two days we were there!

We went to a dinosaur museum....which was really cool, temple square, hill air-force base, a Utah Jazz game, and we stayed in a hotel and let the kids swim! It was so much fun!!!

My camera ran out of batteries while we were there, so I didn't get pictures of everything, but I did capture some of the trip!

The dinosaur museum!

The hotel

Grandma was able to come with us!

Swimming: which was the kids favorite part.....all except Bella! She hated it! She was so scared of the water, she just clung to me the whole time, and then we let her out and she wanted me and Grandma out of that water so bad! It was funny!

Scary pictures!!!

The other day Brooke came up to me with something behind her back and said, "Mom do you want to see the scariest picture in the whole wide world?"
Well, of coarse I was curious at what she had found. So I told her yes.


So are you ready to see the scariest picture in the whole wide world?











Hold your breath.....because it is scary














You might want to close any little one's eyes around....because this is scary
















READY????











Here it is.....









Isn't that freaky?

Okay, so I laughed so hard!
I was expecting something a little scary!

And the funny thing about it is she really is scared of this picture!

As a matter of fact, as I was typing this post, Brooke came up to me and said,
"Mom, I don't like that picture....it is so freaky!"

She is so funny!!

Now you have seen the scariest picture in the whole wide world!!
