My Camera was found!!!

Just a quick note... I thought I had dumped my camera in a dumpster in the Uinta's but my husband found it in one of his jacket pockets! Yeah Iwas so happy! My pictures for 3 months were on there so it was a happy day. I thought I would post a pic of this beautiful place we went camping!

Growing and growing and growing....21 weeks

ok so don't laugh to hard...notice my face is not it one picture because it was a REALLY bad hair day! I had Scott take these pics tonight because I have been really bad at documenting any of my prego bellies! I don't have one Picture with any of my other kids! Sad thing is I'm not as skinny as what I was with my others. At 20 weeks I already weighed what I weighed when I delivered Jadyn. Yes, I shed a few tears but Owell what can I say I'm not in my 20's anymore and this is NUMBER 5 pregnancv for me! I can't dwell on it so I just buy cute prego jeans( notice the cute seven's..lol) As long as you have cute clothes you feel skinnier, right? Honestly, I'm so in love with this baby! He kicks so much and is so much more active then my others were! I have been feeling him kick since 14 weeks! I feel so grateful to be a mom again, even when we thought we were done! I love that Heavenly Father knows whats best for us and our family and I think there are so many awesome spirits that need to come to earth right now and this was just one of them! Its crazy that I can be so in love with a baby that I haven't even seen or held in my arms but I feel like I know him already. My kids being older this time around have really enjoyed sharing this with me. Jesse told me the other day

Jesse: "Mom you are getting really big!"
Me: (sarcastic) "Thanks Son!"
Jesse:(innocently) "No mom really, your legs are bigger, your stomach is bigger, and even
Your boobs are bigger!"
Me: "Jesse! You don't say that!"
Jesse: " No mom, you look really good, I promise!"
Me: " Jesse, you don't ever tell a girl she looks bigger ANYWHERE, it doesn't matter
how nice you are trying to be...she will feel bad."
Jesse: "Sorry, but I do think you look good..."

Oh 14 year old boys... he is famous for his innocent diarrhea of the mouth. Just always saying whats on his mind! The girls are so excited! The other day Jax got mad at me and turned to me
and said: "I'm not going to be nice to your baby!"
Later he came and told me he was sorry..lol I was trying so hard not to laugh! I love my family and there craziness!!!


P.S. I was scratching my belly like crazy right before we took these pictures so I tried to put
lotion on and rub the marks out and they still show...makes for funny shots!

We girls are way out numbered now...

You can see his cord right above his little weiner so no mistakes!!!!!
She had a hard time getting a profile shot because he kept biting at his hand and putting his thumb in his mouth! It was so cute! This is really such a miracle baby!!! I feel so blessed!
So i'm so impatient and my dr. wasnt' doing an ultrasound for another month or more so I went to fetal foto's to see the sex of our baby! The room situation was stressing me out and I just feel I need to be prepared because we have so many kids and not as many bedrooms(they won't sleep downstairs)! Jax has been telling us all along it was a boy and grandma said the same thing so it wasn't a shock but the girls were a little dissappointed! It has been really hard having a different dr. with this baby when I was used to having an ultrasound every month and I hadn't had even one yet. It gave me so much piece of mind! Now its time to start picking out names!

Girls Camp..

These are the amazing leaders I worked with! I couldn't have done girls camp without them!

I haven't posted forever!!! I have been in a little bit of a depression because I accidentally threw my camera away with all my pics at mirror lake up in the Uintas! Luckily I have picture the other leaders took, so here are a few!!
We made hair extension pieces at camp and couldn't resist making them for our bishop and brother Kerr...
I loved these girls I worked with! They were so amazing and loving and I grew so much spiritually!

Angela and I were lighting this stove and it wouldn't light... finially this huge flame came up straight in my face! I looked in the mirror and all the tips of my eyelashes and eyebrows were white! Good laughs! This calling was such a blessing for me right now. I have never had a harder calling but also never had such a rewarding calling. It was crazy! I missed out a little by not being able to go on hikes and obstacle course(dr.'s orders) but I didn't have hardly any morning sickness and didn't throw up even once! This was with 4 to 6 hours of sleep every night and running around like crazy! One of the missionaries told me there were healing powers up there and I so believe it! I was throwing up like crazy before camp and I got home and it started again. The best is it made my first trimester go by so fast! Its been good for my family to have me back so that we could finially use our 7 peaks passes and go camping!

On my way to girls camp with baby NUMBER 6!!!!

This has been me the past month....getting ready for girls camp and having fun morning sickness! We have been so blessed with this little miracle and our family is SO excited! The lord has really blessed me with "less" morning sickness then usual, the strength to serve, and a husband willing to give me many priesthood blessings. I head off to girls camp on Monday and I'm excited for the fresh mountain air. I think it will feel amazing! Every smell in my house makes me want to vomit right now! Scott says I could work for the police sniffing for dead bodies because my nose is extremely sensitive to smells! I will post fun pictures when I get home!

I'm a BAD Blogger...

So Life around my house lately consists of Girls camp meetings..planning girls camp...buying things for girls camp...worrying if everything will be perfect for girls camp...feeling inadaquate about girls camp(How do I teach first aid when I don't know it myself??)...and more girls camp meetings! So I have been so consumed by this that I have not posted in awhile and truthfully it might be another while after this!

So this is what has been happening...

Babysat my parents new puppy(Belle).Brutis wanted to play with her so bad but could have swallowed her whole if he wanted. I went to Idaho for 2 days this last week so that my sister and mom could help me make journals for...GIRLS CAMP! That is my cute sister, Holly, who is 17 weeks prego, working in the small "sweat shop" I had going in my mom's kitchen. Needless to say, I don't sew, but no worries I put them right to work and let them have two, 15min breaks! Thank you Mom, Holly, Jenny, and Tammy for all your help! I took Jax with me to Idaho and he, along with all of the granchildren, LOVE Belle! He had her all wrapped up in a blanket and was bouncing her like a baby...so motherly...he would be such a good big brother...

Then on Thursday we went to Jesse's choir concert and this was the only picture I could get closeup of him while he was running around. He loves choir! I can't believe how he is growing up! He will be 14 in just a few months and it seems like just yesterday he was born. The best is his voice is changing and has gotten deeper but he is still trying to grow hairy armpits! I think he counts every hair and his goal is to be hairy like his Uncle Tyler!

Breaking news....

This made me laugh so hard that I had to share! Look at my link for funny mormons for more!
Breaking News: Top Ten Talk that Should Never be Given
by Bettyanne Bruin
I was once in a ward where a man gave a talk on empathizing with Satan. I don't recall there ever being a quieter chapel, as everyone sat there... stunned. His talk include such ideas as, poor, poor Satan, that it must have been so hard for him to fight against the plan, what it might have been that was really bothering him and how we should have empathy for ALL of our brothers and sisters, including Satan.
This has prompted the following list:Top Ten Other Talks that Should Never be Given in Church:
1 - Can Tobacco Be All Bad if it Has Medicinal Purposes?
2 - The Pros and cons of paying tithing
3 - Because I have enough faith, I will never need anti-anxiety medications
4 - I Lost 100 Pounds Drinking Coca Cola
5 - In lieu of testimony, playing an Oakrigdge Boys song (this actually happened in a ward I was in also)
6 - Expressing gratitude for extended life after suffering a brain aneurysm while have intimate relations with spouse (this was also true in the same ward) and he explained in detail how this happened. I covered the ears of the child next to me!
7 - After Reading all of Isaiah, I Believe I Know the actual day the Second Coming will Arrive
8 - I Never Do My Home Teaching and Yet I Still Feel Blessed
9 - Because I got my husband sent home from his mission, he got a great job he would have missed out on
10 - How Spending So Much on Food STorage made us lose our home.

My Biggest Pet Peeve.....

WHO works out like this????? As I walked through the gym this morning I couldn't help but notice all the women surrounding me were freshly showered, hair done, makeup, and complete with the "little outfits". What???? I wished I had taken a pic of myself as something for you to all compare to but here goes...

green abercrombie sweats with bleach stains

black sports bra(very faded)

white plain tshirt

NO makeup, my hair in a pony with hair sticking out everywhere, and I don't even think I remembered to brush my teeth before I came.

Should I be embarrassed? I go to the gym so that I can feel good, look good for my husband, and just stay healthy. I think at my gym they must be doing the fitness competition for some beauty pagent every day. Now don't get me wrong, if your single, the gym can be a great pick up place but I saw many wedding rings. Do they break a sweat with their long hair perfectly roundbrushed down their back and makeup ready for the day? Oh and d on't forget the lipstick with liner! Obviously these women do it for someone. The Men(boys) or is it competition for the other women? As I walked through the gym I couldn't help but feel like I was some PWT that needed to be working out to Richard Simmons(Sweatin to the oldies) in the living room of my trailer home! lol! Will I change the way I dress when I go to the gym? Hell NO! More power to all those women who waste so much time getting ready but My old sweats are the best!!!!

2 new additions to our family.....

You either love them or hate them but...I love rats! We got two little boys, george(curious george) is tan and white and Templeton(charlottes web) is gray and white. They are so sweet. When they hear my voice they run to the door of their cage looking for yummy frozen peas! Scott thinks I'm crazy but the kids absolutely love them. They love them so much that I had to put locks on the cage doors so that they can't get them out. I didn't want them lose somewhere in my house!

I had to post a pic of Jax's lastest sack lunch. He put Beefaroni in his ever famous little ziplock baggie and had entire bag of bbq chips ready to go. I love how healthy he wants to eat! Takes after his dad!

I had to tell everyone how proud I am of Jesse and Tyler! They just finished their Scuba certification and passed their tests! They were in classes with all adults and were a little intimidated by that but they both loved it. Scott is taking them on a 3 day diving trip to Catalina in July. They are super excited!

Jax's lunch....

I had to post this funny story about Jax! Scott has been "trying" to go off of caffiene and so he now is drinking caffeine free Pepsi for every Pepsi he drinks. Jax loves this because Scott now can share his Pepsi with him, never mind the Sugar! Well..Scott and I were getting ready for the day and Jax comes marching in our room to tell us he packed his lunch already. When we turned to see his "sack lunch" we were laughing so hard! He said, after we told him that probably wasn't a good lunch, " but its Petsi without taffiene!" Oh the things our children learn from us is scary! I love and hate watching him grow! He told me today he was a 6 yr old, not 3. Why do they try to grow up so fast?????
