I've got me a good hubby :)

So - I have to admit that I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired already!!  This morning sickness is FOR THE BIRDS!  But my sweet hubby has been taking care of dinner and the kids while I lay there on the couch looking very green around the gills.  I haven't been as sick as I was with Piercen, but this one is certainly next in line!  I have read that it is supposed to ease up at 12 weeks....let's hope these 2 weeks go by quickly!  I'm also not ready to be gaining weight as fast as I am.  I am seriously putting on 2 ounces every day - EVERY DAY already.  I'm not over-eating (I couldn't if I wanted to)...I'm still running (although not anywhere near as much as I was.)  I am having a hard time accepting that my clothes are getting tight already.  I know, I know it is baby number 5 and all....but it is still hard to see that stupid number on the scale going up and my gut going out SO FAST.  Maybe I'm having a harder time this time because this one was a total surprise...and I've only known that I was preggo for about 3 weeks and am already outgrowing my clothes so fast.   I HATE maternity clothes with a passion....really.  Right now I just look like I've been eating doughnuts all day, every day, all summer.  I don't have that cute baby bump...just all around gooshiness.  Blarg!   Trent however is just darling telling me how nice I look, and that he is just really excited about having another little one.  He rubs my stomach already and is just SO cute.  I sure do love that guy!! ;)

Scout camp :)

Piercen went on his 1st week long scout camp last week.  I can't believe he is old enough to be gone from home for THAT LONG!  I had to keep reminding myself that I went to girl's camp when I was his age.  It was the longest week!  I can't believe HOW much his being gone affected the rest of the family.  He is really the peace maker and best friend of all of the kids.  They missed him SO So much - I did too.  He's my little listener and is always SO concerned with everyone else.  He is very sensitive to other's needs and feelings.  I know that I can depend on him for anything and everything.  He had a fantastic time...he has been non-stop talking about everything that he did and all of the merit badges that he passed off.   Now he is going over to the Jr. High for some science classes with some BYU professors for a few days this week....even more missing him!!   I'm lucky to have such a fantastic kid!  Sometimes it takes missing them for a little bit to really realize how amazing they are!   - Love ya Pierce!!

Surprise!!

Okay - to find out what the surprise is you'll have to scroll down all the way to the bottom of my blog......
yep!  Pretty exciting huh?? :)  I'll move that to the side soon so you won't have to go to the bottom, but for now it's just kinda fun where it is.

Wow - how time flies!!

Man!!  I can't believe it's almost been a month since I've been on here!  The end of school and my calling have really been keeping me really busy.  We have already done SO MUCH!  We finally got new family pictures taken.  My darling cousin did SUCH a fantastic job!!  Now I just have to decide which ones I like best and get them printed : -/  I put them into the slots where the old pictures were here on the blog.  Can't believe how fast my kids have grown!  Life is funny....just when you think you have your life figured out - God must have a sense of humor!  You think you can tell him what your plans are.  You'd think I'd learn to ask HIM what my future should be and not the other way around :)  Oh well!  You learn as you go!  Trent is off camping with Jax on the 11 yr-old overnighter and the rest of the kidlets really want a movie to watch.  I'm thinking pizza and popcorn sounds good for dinner tonight :)
