Another what?!?!

 That's right another girl is coming to this family... At least we think so. :) she was being very uncooperative not only for revealing the gender but also for a few other medical things they check. She is growing and everything seems to be well so we are glad about that. We are excited to add more pink to our home too! As you can see I have already bought material and made one blanket with more projects to come. I am even going to make some minky crib sheets and another crib skirt since our current one is on the toddler bed.

So I did love Clark's response... "What?! I wanted a boy." Said with very much frustration and wrinkling of his nose. I think he will survive especially when he realizes he will be the one with his own room and does not have to share quite so many toys. :)

The flannel blanket I made last night...

April already!

Wow. I can hardly believe it's getting to be the end of April. I am sitting in the rocker snuggling Kaylee and thought to myself time is passing by so quickly. I'm already 17weeks along with baby number 4 and my baby will be in first grade when this baby is born. Clark is finally maturing some and playing well with other children and Kaylee has just exploded with talking. She calls her babies "bobos" and there are so many other things she has words for. Just month ago I told a friend I was worried because she wasn't taking at all even though she was very good at getting what she wanted or at least "telling" us... She is very independent.  A few examples... She gets the juice or milk from the fridge or grabs a diaper and wipes if she needs to be changed. She was playing nicely in the TV room while Addison and Clark were watching a movie so I thought I could snatch a quick nap. I woke up as she came out covered in white cream. It only took me a minute to figure out what it was by the smell. She had gotten the butt paste and spread it so lovingly all over any skin exposed along with three of her dolls. Of course it wasn't any of the dolls with plastic bodies. What a pain it was to get out but to her she was just taking care of her "bobos". What a good little mommy... 

 March paintings

 Addison's

 Clark's... He still loves sprinklers so there are several in his painting.

 Addison had been wanting a hair cut for a couple of months and I was too pokey. She came home from school one day with a few bangs and some shorter pieces in back... I made her wait a few days but then we went and donated it. She was so excited not to have so much hair and tangles.

 She lost her 3rd tooth too! And that darn tooth fairy isn't very reliable at our house. She had to try again the next night. Oops! At least the fairy left a note apologizing! ;)

 I was pretty proud of my marshmallow peeps i made... They turned out super cute and only took maybe 4 hours from start to finish which was good since I bought the fabric 2 days before Easter!

 Addison's first field trip!!! It was so fun to go with her. Actually I drive separately. She wanted to ride the bus. She said that Clark and Kaylee could come to because she didn't want them to miss out and be lonely. She is so thoughtful and sweet! We went to wheeler historic farm. It was interesting to learn some facts I didn't know about assumable. Like the black and white cows produce the most milk with up to 8 gallons a day. Poor ladies!

 Park one afternoon after dropping Addison off at school. We didn't have other babysitting kids with us!

 Our freak April snowstorm was sure fun. Poor tulip our snowman was gone the next day. :(

 Clark loves Lego's. Just a random picture of one of his creations. I don't remember what it was unfortunately. Maybe a sucker truck...

 Kaylee on her new old bike.

 Clark mowing but actually we had just used the spreader to put out fertilizer so he was pretending to as well but it kept running away from him or so he said. Silly boy... :)

Kaylee had some awesome bed head this morning. She is so funny and happy. I love looking back at my blog and seeing how we are growing and changing as a family.  I have fallen way behind on my scrapbooking but this hopefully will help me when I do catch up to remember these stories.

update

 We really didn't fall off the face of the earth. We have just been busy and some of us not feeling awesome due to morning sickness. Baby will grace us with its presence in late sept assuming all goes well.  Kaylee is growing up too fast and is now in a toddler bed. She likes the idea if it but doesn't necessarily like going to bed in it.

 Addison had Dr Seuss week last week and got to go to school with "whoville" hair. She enjoyed things being a little different at school. She has been bored lately with it.

 The kids loved the snow storm we got and so did I because it pretty much all melted with in a week!

 In Feb the kids enjoyed the spring weather out side and practiced roller skating with their skates from Christmas. Kaylee loves her babies any and all and pushing them in their stroller or shopping cart is awesome.

 Clark has really started to love drawing. He is very meticulous with his art work and very specific. In this picture he is explaining to me what everything is.

 Here is our indoor beach in Jan Addison made. She even cut out shells and fish to put in the sand and water.

Clark's flower picture for me. :) his favorite color is still green and he still absolutely loves sprinkler pipes, tinker toys and mowing with his lawn mower.

Christmas

I am not going to write too much mostly because Clark's movie is ending and it's just easier not to be on the computer when he wants to be. ;)  Here are a bunch of pictures from Christmas.  It really was a fun Christmas.  We got to be with both families quite a bit and Tyler and I also enjoyed a get away to celebrate our eighth wedding anniversary.  I am in a January slump right now but I think part of that has to do with being sick for a week and still not feeling fabulous... We really were blessed during 2014 and are excited for 2015.  Time just keeps flying by and we can't call it back but then again I don't know that we would want to.  We keep learning and growing though all these mortal life experiences and although I miss my kids being teeny tiny I love watching them grow and learn...

 We spent some time with Connor and Tim on Christmas and then also went sledding with them the next day.

We didn't do to well taking pictures of just hanging out and having fun but we did that a lot too! We played games and the kids did some crafts with my parents while we were gone.  Dad W got out his electric trains that were a big hit with Clark too.
