Picture Day

I took the kids to get their pictures done earlier this week. It is hard work but it paid off! I bought the boys matching shirts when I was still pregnant with Camden intending on using them to get pictures done. He is growing so fast that he almost grew right out of it before we got the chance!! I love these pictures and I LOVE MY KIDS! They are a huge blessing in my life and I thank my Heavenly Father everyday for them!








Goodbye hair!


Kaysia's hair was sooooooo long! It was very difficult to take care of. She didn't like me to brush it and was very picky in how it was done. I HATED washing it! To add to the difficulty of her hair, she cannot stand being hot. So I had it WHACKED off! She looks adorable, and best of all she LOVES it and has made it very clear, she doesn't ever want long hair again. I almost cried when they took the 10 inches off, but I am so glad that I did it.

TWINS

I always wanted two girls I could dress the same. It never thought it would be just as much fun to do it with boys too!! Here they are just as cute as can be! I LOVE MY BOYS! (and my one and only princess too of course!)

Multi-tasking..

As some of you may know, my laundry room is on the main floor and all the bedrooms are upstairs. Well getting the laundry up and down the stairs with a newborn that demands to be held all the time has become quite the chore!! So now, I just lay him in the basket with the clothes. I am becoming a master at doing two things at once!! Not to mention the added weight going up and down the stairs might help with my baby fat!

Routine.......

Jason and I have moved EVERY year for the past 9 years, sometimes twice in one year. Finally I thought we have found a home and a neighborhood that I thought we would raise our kids and live in for the long haul. We originally made the move to Layton because Jason worked right down town and the commute was better than from South Jordan. We built our dream home, exactally how we wanted it and have been slowly making it OURS. We have painted walls, hung pictures and decorated. Something that we have NEVER done in the 3 other homes we have owned. I have been happy here, met friends that I have things in common with and absolutely LOVE our ward. Well, much to my surprise, the church is pulling the department out of downtown and moving it to 134000 S and Bangerter Hwy. So once again a move is in order. This time I have mixed feelings, mostly not really wanting to move but trying not to fight it too much because it will happen. We will be starting over again, but that isn't always bad. For right now the thought consumes me. Somedays I am excited for a change and a do over, and somedays I get really sad that I have to pack up MY house, a home that we built and made completely our own, and have someone else take it away from me. We can't justify building another home. Right now in the market you can get the same house for 50k cheaper if it is pre-exsisting. So I guess we will be taking away someone elses house!

It has been a while......

The never ending pregnancy finally ended and here we are almost 8 weeks later. Camden Charles finally came April 22, just 3 days before Jason's birthday. He is such a JOY in my life! I feel like my life is complete with him in it. I have been VERY busy trying to juggle 3 kids and my other responsibilities. It has been tough, but I think we have almost gotten completely adjusted to a new person in our family. Kaysia ADORES her baby brother! It is neat because she most likely won't have a sister but she does have a little brother that looks like her (even has her same crooked toes)! Kyson loves his brother too, he is having a hard time with the new addition. He never really adjusted well to anything in the past so I knew this was coming. He doesn't act out towards the baby, he has just become more testy and disobedient. Hopefully this will be coming to an end soon! Here are a few pictures of camden, in age order......
