We had a fun family night downtown yesterday! Walked to dinner from Blakes office, rode tracks, and went to the splash pad at the Gateway. And let's be honest folks at this stage of my pregnancy I'd walk 50 miles if it would induce labor!

A lot of people ask me if having my kids so close together was hard or not. Yes, of course is always my reply but looking at this photo makes me forget everything that was hard about it. All I see is the greatest blessings of my life. I see love, laughter, fun, and YOUTH! Worth every minute of it!

Do you think he is in need of a serious hair cut?

Wanted nothing to do with getting wet but enjoyed watching.

Ella was so focused on the train. When we got off all she kept saying was "choo choo".

I decided my kids are going to wonder where I was at in all the photos so here is one with me in it. Okay people, I know my hair resembles a rats nest but I'm 9 months pregnant and by golly it's a hundred degrees out!

It's a good thing she's cute because her cuteness has saved her multiple times!

My sisters family has had multiple bouts of sickness so when they were finally all better we headed over so Owen could meet Jasper! I love Addisons face in this photo!

TBALL

We decided to put Owen in T-ball to see if he liked it or not. He liked it a whole lot better than soccer. Batting was his favorite!

Such concentration!

This was just a little thumbs up letting me know he was alright!

He has quite the fielding skills. Is that a pink glove?? No, it can't be. Yep, it is....don't ask!

This is usually towards the end of the game when Owen is basically done. This picture makes my heart smile.

This was the sky at our house last night! So beautiful!

I'M TIRED!

I realized why I am so exhausted at the end of the day..besides being almost 8 months pregnant..I have a very active boy! And one active girl who thinks she is a boy!




This is one of Owens dare devil tricks! Yes, he does have a helmet but Blake ran over it with the car so we need a new one fast!

One of many of his faces!

And yet another one!

Does he ever sit still you ask? NOPE!

And what Owen does, Ella must copy.

Until she's pooped!

JASPER

The newest edition to the family! My sister Angela had her baby yesterday. He is number 4 with the rest being ALL girls..he is going to be getting a lot of love!

CANADA DAY 2010

So since my husband is Canadian this year we decided to celebrate Canada Day. I tried to explain it to Owen but all he kept asking was "can we do fireworks?" Someday he will understand!

Owen was very upset Ella got to hold the flag!

But he got over it in 5 seconds when he found the hose to play with.


I have silly children!

This is the reason I can't say smile...this is what I get!

I love them to death!

EH!

We had a chance to take a trip to Toronto a few weeks ago..It was great! Owen and Ella got some real quality time with Grandpa and Grandma!

The great city of Toronto!

This photo both worries me and makes me laugh..do I have a bully on my hands??

Ahh he enjoyed this ride so very much!!!
