Unto us a Savior is born.

Every Christmas season we try to incorporate a little more Christ into our holiday plans.  Its important that we teach our children the true meaning and spirit of Christmas. 
Please enjoy this simple message of Christ.




May your holiday season be filled with love, peace and joy that can be found from the love of our Savior, Jesus Christ.

Thankful

So many reasons to be thankful.
I'm most grateful for this year is my little family.

My children



My husband



I would be nothing without them.  They give me purpose and they give me life.

I hope everyone had an amazing Thanksgiving.

life is busy...still

Can I just title all my posts 'life is busy' cause its literally the only thing I can come up with now a days.  

Having 3 kids and being hugely pregnant just makes every day a busy day.  

I've been trying to will myself into early nesting. I'm a work in progress, but its going, alright. 

I will say it does make washing dishes a little more fun when you have a brand new sink and faucet! 
YES! We've had the sink for almost a year and my husband, for our anniversary, put it in last week. 

You guys, oh you guys. YOU GUYS!! 

I love the new sink so much and it fits way more dirty dishes.  Before you'd put in a couple plates and one pot and the sink would be full. Now put that same amount in and then triple that and there is still room.  Its really a beautiful site and it makes my adult, growing older heart very happy. 

I'm excited because it will fit baby boy for a quick bath time.  I haven't had a sink this big before and it is glorious!!! Oh and best part, i finally have a disposal!! When we moved in almost 2 years ago the disposal wasn't working, i waited almost 2 years for one and its a beast and i love it so much. 

I'm a simple gal and I don't really ask for much, and this was one of the greatest things I could have ever gotten from my husband. 

I love sink.

9 years

A few weeks ago, October 27th to be exact, Chris and I celebrated our 9 year anniversary the best way we know how, working, sick kids, and sleep. Pretty simple, and ordinary life, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

This past year for us has had its amazing ups and huge spiraling, jump off a cliff, burning alive downs.  

I wouldn't want to be with anyone else and I'm glad we've been through the ringer this year.  I can't wait to see what this next year has in store for us. We're in this for Eternity and I'm so glad we have each other.

life is busy.

Life is busy.

Taking care of kids, trying to take care of myself, my house, my husband, work, & so on.

Every day life right now is filled with a bossy 7 year old, a 5 year old that cries over literally everything, and a 2 year old who has decided sleep in optional at night so also cries at literally everything too. I'm exhausted and burnt out. I know it will pass, and i should cherish these times, but if they could just grow just out of these phases i'd be okay with that.

There are good things going on too, but some days its hard to let those good things shine through all the not good.  I'm trying, I put a smile on my face and basically fake it till i make it some days and that does certainly help.

Okay onto the good things that have been happening.

A few weeks ago we found out the baby is.


We used this photo on social media to announce what we were having.

We are excited its going to be another little boy.  The girls are happy because that means we have even numbers in our family.

After the ultrasound we went to lunch and then straight to Target so i could buy a little outfit for my little guy.



Halloween happened and it was a fun time for the kiddos again.  Evelyn requested pikachu as her costume, Amelia requested a bunny and Camden, well with him we tried many costumes and he chose nothing, he didn't want to dress up at all, so he went as a 'dad'.

 




We finally decided on a name for the baby. It was a back and forth battle, but we came up with a great name that i love and will be a perfect fit in our family. 

I'm choosing not to share online until we have the baby, just cause I  really don't need anyone's opinions about the name we chose. Sorry, not sorry. You'll just have to wait and hear. 


So that's an update on life right now. Hopefully between all the crazy I'll be able to find more time to blog.
