September

Still having picture problems, but I need to an update to feel caught up! I'm coming to an end of my pregnancy, and we are getting excited to meet the newest edition to our family. We are officially in the 'mini van' stage of our lives. The kids love running around it and I'm loving the space compared to my 4 door car. Three car seats are strapped in and we are almost party of 5! :)

The kids are excited to meet their new brother or sister. Savi says it's her baby sissy because she already has a brother, and Lucas just says beebee (baby) in such a cute voice when we ask him what's in mommy's tummy. They are truly such joys and add so much to our lives. They keep us busy, laughing, on our toes and the list goes on. I just look at them sometimes and wonder how God was so good to us. They are so precious and the absolute loves of our lives. Lucas wants to do everything and some that big sissy is doing. They are really having a fun time playing together lately. Trust me, they have their moments, but most of the time they are pure entertainment for one another.

Hopefully I'll post some pictures soon...

August Catch Up

Our photo program on our computer isn't working, so I'm not caught up on posting my pictures. I'll just write a bit so that I feel a little updated.

Well the search for a new house continues...we are grateful to have the house that we're in right now, and the kids have so much fun playing with the other little ones in the neighborhood. As soon as they hear them playing outside they want to run out there and ride all around in their little cars with them. Lucas keeps up with the big kids with no problem.

We went to Yosemite at the end of July/beginning of August. We actually drove up there on Savannah's 3rd birthday. I feel bad that none of her birthday pictures are posted yet...but soon enough they'll be uploaded. She had such a blast at her ballerina party. A few of her little friends came to dance and twirl with the birthday girl. She truly loved doing all of the little crafty things with me the weeks prior. She pays such attention to detail, as she always has, and loved little things like gluing jewels on and putting ribbon on everything. She is so sweet and still talks about her party. Yosemite was such a blast! The kids and all of us were filthy, but we enjoyed the true tent camping experience. We all took turns cooking and serving meals. Family trips are always fun-and the kids just ran all around collecting rocks, sticks and whatever else they could find. Bike rides were a hit, and hiking was fun too. The trees and views were beautiful-again, pictures soon...

Oh Mr. Luke is such a little love. His personality is really coming out. He knows how to make people laugh, and keeps going once he has your attention. He is still so cuddly and attached, I love every minute of it. His hair is officially white from the summer fun in the sun. He learned how to kick and blow bubbles during swim lessons this summer, and practices in the bath while he watches himself in the little mirror in the tub. He is adventurous, yet doesn't wander too far.

I'm 36 weeks pregnant and all is going great! We are getting excited to meet our newest addition. He/she is moving all around, ready to play with big brother and sister. Bags are packed for the kids and Mike and I, so we are ready for the big day!

Mike is keeping busy at work...I admire the man is has become. He works so hard, yet comes home and is such an amazing and devoted daddy. The kids love to wrestle around with him, but also love to get 'cozy' as Savannah says with him when they cuddle.
