The "peaces" of our lives!

The past month since we have had the baby has gone quicker than when I had the other babies. It may be because there are four now or because even though I didn't go to crowded public places we always had to be somewhere or doing something (mainly painting, dry walling, bathroom stuff. Thanks Steve for all the hard work. I can't wait to have our bathroom finished). Here is what our lives this first month with the new little one looked like:

Jaron started tee ball I think the week after Mckenzie was born and it takes a huge part of three of our days per week but he's doing really well and having lots of fun so it's worth it. Not that I had a choice in the matter . Steve's been dreaming of Jaron playing ball since we found out it was a boy . I was surprised I got away with not signing him up as long as I did.


Lots of this: No not sleep, laundry!


When we bring home a new baby I try to get a pic of them all laying side by side to see the size difference. This picture reminds me of that cell phone commercial where the bar signals pop up everywhere.


Isn't she gorgeous? I'm sure I 'm not biased at all.



Steve tries to sneak in naps where he can. You would think he was the one up at night with the babies.


Eliza has been a girly girl as usual. Playing with dolls and prancing around in dresses. She loves twirling around in this one I made her.


Mckenzie has those very full Funk cheeks my babies get other than that she has a very different look than our other kiddos.




We've eaten very simple meals. I'm no chef to start with but have simplified meals even more the past month with lots of pasta. Jaron enjoys the spaghetti as you can tell. He loves making funny faces.


Lots of bonding!


General conference weekend. I actually had the older two entertained with some activities that I printed off the lds.org website. I wasn't sure how long it would last but they sat for the majority of Saturday and Sunday morning sessions. The others were, well, not as quiet.



Mckenzie celebrated one month with our crazy family. With the three others I was glad we made it to this milestone without too much drama.


This pretty much sums up our Easter. It was really low key. Enjoyed conference, went down the hill and had dinner with my fam.


And Emmitt well he continues to be our wild man. Always making us laugh and at times making us want to cry.






Yes I know they are in their pajamas a lot, have messy hair and dirty faces. No they don't always look like that but we have had a very relaxed attitude towards getting with it in the morning partly because Mckenzie thinks she needs to be fed 12 times while I'm making breakfast. She is the queen of snacking.

Peace out
