Here it is: 32 1/2 weeks along.

Sorry this is such a strange picture of me. I went outside, because our flash doesn't work...then it was so sunny I couldn't even open my eyes. Notice the flats. I literally couldn't fit into my Sunday shoes. I have never swollen before this pregnancy, and I definitely hope I never do again. Yucky! Oh well, with any luck I only have 6 weeks to go. By the way...I also know I need a hair cut.

Weston Goes to School!

I can't believe he is already 3, but our little Weston has started Preschool. Here are some cute pics. He actually started 3 weeks ago...but I have been lazy and my camera is out of commission. So here are some pics of him that were taken by the Miss Becca. I am in a group teaching arrangement with 7 other moms. We all teach and take turns with our 8 kids. Weston has done great from the beginning. He gets a little nervous on the way over to school...but once he is there, he does great! He loves to learn and I am so proud of him. I had the privilege of teaching last week and all the kids are so much fun. Weston put his arms around Maddie and Aleaha and told them they were "lovely." He is a ladies man! This picture is missing 2 of the 8 kids.

Gilbert Constitution Days!

Ok....I am supposed to be blogging about the awesome Gilbert Constitution Days that we went to this last Sat....However, I am so ticked about my camera, I can't even think straight. For no apparent reason my flash isn't working and all my pictures are dark. Here is a cute pic of Weston with his Flag tattoo...and you can't even see him.

Anyway, in Gilbert they put on the best show, games, free stuff and fireworks in the Nation to celebrate our Constitution and our soldiers. We went last year and had to go again. It is worth the drive and they even announced that it is the biggest Celebration in the whole United States.

Ahhhh, I cannot blog without pictures. I am so bummed.

Here they are with cupcakes after the cake walk.

Went to the Dentist

It has been a while since a dentist trip was any fun...or affordable for that matter. But today was good news. No cavities! That is for the kids at least. I didn't even bother checking myself. I have had enough dental work for one year.
Here are some cute pics of my little healthy brushers! They did great by the way. I was shocked that Weston held so still. Those of you who know him will understand this was a great accomplishment.

Pregnant belly

So here is fun picture I took of myself while Jake was digging trenches in our back yard. I wasn't trying to look all posey or anything. My arm is just up to hide the camera. It shows my belly none the less....and this way you don't have to look at my swollen face or ankles!

I got all fired up watching Oprah today. Here is a great way we can do something. Go to this link and it will lead you to how to get in touch with your local State Senators and help pass this law. Ed Smart (Elizabeth Smart's Dad) is behind this bill and it helps get the funding out...so we can put these sickos behind bars. I know we feel helpless, but this can help.

My Brothers

Ok. I am from Rural Idaho...so don't be offended, but I grew up hunting. Here is a cool picture of 5 of my 9 brothers.
Thomas shot a bear...he was thrilled. Congrats Bro!

Tagged: Picture Tag

So I just went to my friend Memory's blog...who moved away from Maricopa to the beautiful state of California. Anyway, she tagged me with this photo thingy...so here it is. This was somewhat embarrassing,...since I do clean, but just on Fridays. It would have been spotless on Friday. Also, my camera takes horrible pictures indoors, so sorry.



Here are the rules. I tag Sarah Jones, Tracy Badger and Anne Boice
PICTURE BLOG TAG. The rules are you have to take ten pictures of the following things. And you have to do it right away. No straightening, cleaning or wiping your child's nose.



1. The inside of your fridge.

2. Your Closet

3. A self Portrait. 4. Your favorite room in the house. I chose my kitchen. I just like the layout and enjoy cooking in this kitchen.
5. Your kitchen sink. No cleaning guys. 6. Your Laundry Room ( I need hidden storage above my washer and dryer.)
7. Your toilet

8. Your kids (whatever they are doing right now, Weston was dancing with a singing truck. ) Aubrey was at school.

9. Your dream vacation. This is Jake in the Bahamas. This was our dream vacation and it would be so awesome to take our whole family someday. 10. Your favorite pair of shoes. I love these shoes and they remind me of when we were on Wheel of Fortune.
